Man, that Everrose with the chocolate dial... absolutely beautiful.

[@jonathangilbert7948]

Agree Jacob and its now found a new home.

Great video Jonathan I love the Daytona and my personal favourite is the black steel ceramic with the black dial.

[@watchrolex]

Great vid Jonathan. A couple of updates … 116520 came out in 2000 (not 2002). The power reserve on the 4130 (116520 and 116500) is 72 hours (not 54). I think all 4130s were also calibrated to +/- 2 secs per day accuracy. The 4130 was also the first to have the parachrome hairspring and bearing rotor. Still the best chrono movement on the market despite being a 23-year old design.

That Daytona looks like a 30mm watch on your wrist 😂

Love your channel Johnathan very informative. Cheers

Thank you Seth

[@dannyg6592]

I really enjoy your presentation style and professionalism. My favorite of the four is the chocolate dial. What a stunner!

[@jonathangilbert7948]

Thank you Danny

Hi Jonathan At 6’5” tall I find the Daytona a bit teeny for my size Any recommendations to Rolex to increase case size Will they listen to us?

[@philipvose5705]

Great video. I love the Oysterflex strap on mine.

[@AKRex]

I think to truly deep dive into Daytona line-up you would need a good couple hours of this format in order to cover a vast amount of them and I mean the ones that were mass produced (excluding limited series etc). Personally, I like steel ones (both pre 2016 and post 2016) with black dials, but platinum with the brown bezel and sub dials is probably my number one favourite and a dream that may never come true. But who knows lol

[@stevenfoleyuk9404]

Thank you for another great Video . The best looking Daytona to buy today would be the White Gold Blue Dial , Ref 116509 a very much underrated model IMHO

Awesome Chocolate

[@legendbodywork1313]

To be honest with you I love the new Daytona with the ceramic bezel but just like a new Ferrari versus an old Ferrari in 10 years maybe 20 but definitely 20 the stainless steel basil is going to be worth more money more classic

[@edinburghwatchcompany247]

Good point. The classic Daytona is a wonderful watch in any metal. For me 18ct yellow gold, white index dial and a brown alligator is the one.

[@davecorry7723]

That was lovely and relaxing. Thank you!
