With how expensive train journeys can be in the UK, the Rolex was probably less than the fare to go to Glasgow

[@mayukhsharma8465]

Are train fares that high in the uk?? I mean more than what would cost in a flight??

[@jamess.2491]

really I take the train to Edinburgh every time I go and it's only about 300 quid per person for a first class round trip ticket.

[@mayukhsharma8465]

@elitemathlete why is it so??

[@jamess.2491]

@Michael L no that's not that bad for a 7.5hr train ride in first class

[@j.burgess4459]

​@Michael L 300 quid...umm....for guys who collect Rolex watches....it's not _such_ a big deal, y'know...:-P

[@grassIand]

this dude buying watches like me buying sodas, keep it up

[@CommandoMaster]

Soda = $1. Rolex = $10k+

[@robynsjp]

Congrats. The black dial looks nice. And funny coincidence, I travelled 335 km yesterday to northern Holland to buy a unique vintage Omega 145.012-67, caliber 321. Chatted for about 2 hrs with the vintage watch dealer after weeks of negotiations. Very nice experience when going to pick up a grail. Enjoy the Rollie. First day with my 321 here 😃😃

[@Kairosdex]

Aside from your Pepsi GMT, this is my favorite watch you own. Absolutely perfect.

[@deltanovember1672]

Wow, Glasgow looks amazing!

[@jamesarthur6962]

It is stunning, beautiful LWC...a great choice & looks like it is in great condition (and dial layout is perfect). Congratulations. I am sure you will enjpy this in your collection - its the perfect balance between elegance & the casual sporty look.

[@IULENZA]

Totally agree with you, the black dial is simply the best for the 116520. Congrats and enjoy it!

[@herts9999]

White dial, ceramic bezel. Black dial metal bezel. What a cracking good pickup!

[@davecorry7723]

Abbbsolutely beautiful Daytona, sir! I only have one watch: a gold Daytona on a leather strap. And much consideration, I loved that Rolex celebrated the new millennium with a Daytona, and that it was the first six-digit, AND that it was the first with a bespoke movement: but I also want the first serial number of production. So I set my heart on a P-serial. Bought it. On my wrist now. Only watch I'll ever need.

[@HarryStoneDotCom]

I always look forward to a new video dropping every Saturday, this really is a great channel that gets better and better. Thank you for your time and effort in making them. This is a beautiful piece, and it certainly compliments your white dial ceramic perfectly. What about a white dial Zenith movement Daytona next? And God help us when you turn your attention to true vintage pieces, Bond Sub, Double Red Sea-dweller, and Paul Newman Daytona - because it's bound to happen! 😂 Wear your stunning collection in the best of health Mr LWC and have a great weekend.

[@cskeang]

Yes, 116520 should go for the black dial.

[@clegsmegson2627]

I'm the CEO of a multinational - let's just say money is not a problem for me. Yes, I drive a G63, yes, I own a 488 Pista, yes I have 4 houses in 3 countries. Not meaning to brag but it adds context to my comments. I only wear Patek and Rolex but have yet to add a Daytona to the collection. Thanks for the video. Best regards, Cleg Smegson

[@khismarsaupi9662]

Wow looks really nice 👍👍👍

[@ChronoGuys]

I agree on the black dial on the 116520 reference. I also have the black dial and I wanted to buy one since I was 16 and had to wait over 10 years before I could afford mine, and the feeling of picking it up was one of the best feelings I've ever had. Also the fact that you opted out from picking up the black ceramic one is just amazing. Such a good guy, think not many people would have done the same.

[@chateaubullion2560]

Beautiful looking watch, two thumbs up.

[@xxmtfkxx]

Stunning watch!!.. another one which is the most stunning is the green emerald dial 18k gold Daytona..😁

[@johnfileinstein9494]

What an amazing passion for watches and such a beautiful and elegant collection of time pieces to boast. Incredible videos, love your channel. I hope one day I can have a collection even a snippet as good as yours and we could meet and share our stories of each watch one by one. Thank you for the entertainment, your a great KZbinr, and I truly wish you the best. -S.H.

[@MultiLuc28]

I didn't realise the design of the dial on the black version didn't change from pre-ceramic to ceramic. It's a nice thought that you could swap the bezels and make a "ceramic model" out of it.

[@jamess.2491]

It's funny the first time I went to Glasgow was when I bought my first Rolex. Watching this video made me feel nostalgic about when I was younger...

[@fidelgm11]

Sick watch Mr. London! Your collection keeps on getting so good!

[@harrydohertyslife4706]

Ernest Jones use to be a Rolex retailer but sadly not anymore, I don’t know why they stop supplying to EJ.

[@UptickWatchReviews]

Absolutely gorgeous piece. Nice to hear you turned down the latest to get what you really like.

[@TriforceRich]

You convinced me that the black>white dial on this particular model.

[@xmuninu]

I had the exact same 'thin hands' model with black dial it is the perfect size and fits the wrist so comfortably. I also think it is much nicer than the white dial version. The only problem I had with the watch was that, although I have good eyesight, I found it practically impossible to read the time in most lighting conditions so I eventually part-exchanged it for the blue 'Smurf' Submariner. It's probably the reason Rolex decided to upgrade to wider hands and even offer to change them when these watches went in for servicing. The funny thing with all things Rolex is that this version has become even more collectable! It is a lovely watch though.......Congratulations on finding such a pristine example.

[@franciscoj.sepulvedal.7975]

Fantastic video!!! Congratulations. Greetings from Chile.

[@marksalmon8619]

Fantastic piece. Congrats bud. I think I prefer the pre ceramic.

[@derekholyfield6089]

I have both ceramic (white dial) and this one. Both equally awesome and hard to say one is better than the other. At times I actually really like the pre ceramic.

[@sagarbatra8815]

The watch definitely has a everlasting shine... And yes you said it perectly that the inner dials amazingly supports the outer dial and give a realistic charm to the watch ! Truly amazing, loved it and congratulations to you @londonwatchcollector . ❤

[@michaelfleming8490]

What a good looking watch. I have the steel, ceramic panda and love it. But for the previous reference with the steel bezel, it’s got to be the black dial.

[@jeanlefranc3817]

Seems like you are building the official UK Rolex museum. 🙏🏻

[@olske1981]

Mega beautiful watch

[@eddiecourtois2687]

Nice review as always ;) I’m addicted to watches like you and I’m glad to watch your videos thanks for sharing us your passion. I’m looking forward to watching your next video.

[@yoadhakim8614]

Great video my friend. Hope you're planning doing your "current collection" video around the end of the year like you did last year. This time it will be alot longer. Cheers!

[@Singh64able]

Pure excellence i think i prefer this to the ceramic that silver just pops enjoy my friend !!!

[@franciscoj.sepulvedal.7975]

Dear Sir, I think you need that cat too!!!

[@specialkfouryou]

nice to see you adding another watch outside of the current Rolex catalog. Now you just need to add a vintage Daytona to complete the trilogy!

[@611005gm]

Great, great watch..... fantastic video! Thanks for sharing ..... greetings from Mexico.

[@jeffhutton323]

Fantastic!!! Love the travelogue,well done. Congratulations on a beautiful piece.

Very nice watch, I don’t like too many Rolex watches but this Is definitely one I like

[@Wonky_ties]

Great video Mr London, the highlight for me was the statue in Glasgow with the traffic cones on its head. 😂😂

[@ceejaydeesoozaa]

thanks for taking us viewers out with you.

[@MattWilliams482]

Keep buying them watches dude, relentless 👍

[@ionionescu423]

That's my fav Daytona. Well done, enjoy it. PHIST ✊✊✊

[@DaD-zl2hr]

I only recently found Your Channel. I'm really enjoying the videos. Thanks

[@arthurstube]

Fabulous pickup absolutely stunning much better then the ceramic version in my eyes.

[@BetamaxBabe]

I tried on a rose gold Daytona while on vacation. It was a real stunner, but I prefer this one. It's understated in comparison.

[@iamtotie]

very nice. congrats

[@pedrocastro1568]

Amazing watch!! Far better looking than the ceramic

[@sandyyazier28]

So Nice!!!!!!!

[@johno1971]

Never really been a fan of the Daytona, however this one is a stunner. Oh no here we go again, another for the list!

[@pragadishwaran6421]

Am just waiting for your video London watch collector

[@ateasejee1662]

Nice .....very nice....best watch collector.....ever.........!!😊😊

[@christopherma1718]

excellent choice, the stainless steel bezel is more stealthy / monochromatic than the new ceramic (attention seeking) IMO

[@diogogoncalves200]

Amazing watch in amazing condition. still waiting for you to get that Paul Newman

[@Yorkshiremadmick]

Diogo Gonçalves HE bought it at auction 👍🏻

[@Dromfr]

Mesmerizing piece. Congrats!

[@eugenerivera4327]

Great job on this video the Daytona Rolex Watch it’s totally different from the other Rolex way he’s that I have seen personally. But the Daytona Rolex there are so many buttons to deal with I would probably get lost pushing any of the buttons. It’s Beautiful though I really love the way it looks. I really love the Rolex vintage ones myself I have a friend of mine that has the r6694 1973 and it’s really nice looking and quite simple to operate but it’s smaller I think it’s a 26mm the band but it does look really nice especially on my wrist my friend allowed me to wear it just to get the feel of a Rolex and quite frankly it feels great on my wrist so I personally felt wonderful having a Rolex on my left wrist. When I have the money I will personally purchase one myself. But what type of Rolex watch that I do not know just yet before I pull that trigger I will think about what type of Rolex watch to purchase first there are so many to choose from.

[@jlarsson1978]

You just keep getting badass-watches!

[@NYBOY646]

Love this watch I will buy it one day

[@Mark..P]

Wow. Is Adrian dealing in watches already in Scotland 😂. Beautiful watch. You are a very lucky chap 😁👍

[@golddragon8672]

so happy for you... wear it in good health! 👍

[@michaelbrady9364]

Great watch. Great city. Wear it in good health. 👍

[@hdgs6310]

Great sharing

[@sanjivrpatel]

Correct it’s a mk1 dial. However when you say it has thin hands compared to your 116500, you would have been better saying it has thin hands as compared to fatter hands that came out with the mk2 dial from F series mid 2003.

[@LondonWatchCollector]

👌🏼👍🏼 well said

[@mrraider2241]

Your Vlogs are the best. You the Bond Street and Talking about the Watch Brands there would be awesome

[@MegaTammy321]

How are there people who dislike these videos? Great video again

[@Watchugoton]

Great choice probably my favourite Rolex

[@jcdaly535]

Great video and awesome watch? Do you ever sell your additional links?

[@DWilliam1]

Very nice piece...I actually like it better than the ceramic especially in the blackface.

[@TopQ428]

That box looked suspect I've never seen a box like that before.

[@paulienkhamvaiphei134]

Beautiful.congratulations.

[@KG-ro8ft]

Gorgeous!!!! Congrats!!

[@ActionMasterTv]

I prefer the green lume instead of the blue. Nice watch!

[@rubjork]

Looks like new my friend, amazing watch, I love your videos, it would be very nice for you to buy a grand Seiko, congratulations my friend.

[@nicopostigo123]

Nice review 👍

[@byrong1561]

The unpainted bezel is always the way to go on non ceramic watches. I own a vintage Sub and Seamaster, both with painted bezels and both badly scratched. Never subscribed to the idea that scratches add character. I want my watches to look mint for as long as possible, not be covered in scratches. You don't have the problem with unpainted bezels with inscribed markers , as is demonstrated on this beautiful piece. Scratches still there of course, but just not as prevalent on a unpainted bezels

[@marcwalters7541]

You must have a special relationship with your jeweller if you have been offered a second ceramic Daytona , the jewellers I use in Stoke-on-Trent tell me they only have two a year allocated and they have 60 people on the list that’s a 30 year waiting list 😩

[@shinshishi1]

Complimenti, orologio fantastico e per la pizza margherita come potresti mangiare in Italia!

Che cazzo di commento stupido. Italiani non si smentiscono mai...in prima fila x le figure di merda !!

@@SpaghettiKillah Mi spiace questa sua acrimonia, nei miei confronti e nei confronti degli italiani, il mio può essere un commento stupido ma, lei insultandomi, mi fa capire che non ha motivazioni logiche da contrappormi, altrimenti avrebbe usato quelle, Comunque le consiglio un corso di italiano, sia che sia la sua lingua madre, che non.

if you wanted to get all the scratches fixed could RSC fix it even if you are willing to pay for it

[@CJ-rb3do]

Congratulations on the new piece. It is absolutely amazing. When are you getting the Code 11.59? I just picked up a Glashütte Original PanoLunar, do you like those piece? I’d love to see you get a A. Lange, those are my grail.

[@derekholyfield6089]

Love this watch. Maybe the best watch you can pick up right now for about $17k usd. Nice review.

Amazing watch for its age. Looks as new as you can get, for a used item. Still prefer the white face of the Daytona

Great looking, I have the same one. Its a classic. I just bought a Submariner Green dial.2019. What should I aim for next?? Was thinking the GMT Master II Pepsi with Jubilee.
