Rolex Daytona: Why Rolex Watches Are The Best?

[@thepiemaster0933]

Hello. The black dial Daytona is a BADASS watch I truly think 🤔 the black dial is nicer than the white. It just flows nice . One of the most comfortable Rolex sports model. There is a reason why this is the most demanding SS Rolex PERIOD !!!! 😎😎

[@WatchSociety]

❤️ ❤️

[@NEROROYAL]

Most People only get the panda because they’ve been programmed to believe it’s better but several owners I know wish they had the black dial even with a lower investment return.

[@menaseven9093]

I like the fact that Rolexes are strong everyday watches, Audemars Piguet's are not strong everyday watches I prefer the black Daytona to the Panda Daytona. Black dials are so beautiful.

First Rolex inhouse chronograph 4130 was year 2000 P-Serie Daytona 116520 with thin hands, I own one!! Not 116500LN👍 Great video👌 Daytona is one of my absolute favorite watch!

[@metro2171]

Love this Daytona like you said it’s robust, reliable and functional. In addition it can be your daily and is practical for formal settings. This is my dream watch and can’t wait to get mine. I totally agree with you that you have to have connection to obtain one of these watches . I am keeping my fingers crossed I was promised this watch From an AD that I trust and have a great purchased history with , hopefully it will be here soon. Enjoy your timepiece

[@WatchSociety]

❤️ It’ll come through 🙏

[@metro2171]

Which color do you like better the white or black???

[@NEROROYAL]

@@metro2171 The black is sensational. The white looks bland.

[@NEROROYAL]

@@WatchSociety Glad you got the black. It’s definitely the best looking version. More characterful dial than the bland looking panda.

[@derrickmartinez2147]

I just put my 116500LN black dial on a black Rubber B Strap last night, man it looks so good. Highly recommend

[@A_thewatchguy]

Brilliant Video congratulations on the Daytona, when can we expect a video of all of you watch collection

[@tarasmathers7423]

"You can dive w/ it, run w/ it, sleep w/ it, throw it, whatever......"LMAO!!! You're silly bro....but oh-so-entertaining. LOL!! I see you've cracked 50K. Congrats. That should tell you something, about how relatable you are; about the quality of your content. I knew this would happen, once the secret was out, about "Watch Society." Congrats on the new piece as well. It's so funny, cause this, is the exact piece, I've been romancing lately (in my mind of course....). My man, Oisin, from "The Timeless Watch Channel," has dubbed this version, 'The Tie-Fighter.' As in, if 'the Panda' version, is Luke Skywalker, then this version, is Darth Vader.......i.e. 'the Darkside.' It's really grown on me. Many blessings to you, my man....cheers.

[@nickchang5293]

Congrats on acquiring such nice piece through your AD, and I share your enthusiasm when I got my Panda a few years ago. I also share your sentiment on Rolex timepiece having the most universal appeal of all luxury brands, which applies to 3 generations in my family. Enjoy your collection in good health and prosperity!👍

[@jeffreywee2895]

Both black and white dial Daytona are absolutely stunning piece,either one for me is my holy grail💪💪

I’ll come through Jeffrey, no doubt ❤️

[@SpilkersKompass]

Very nice ending… And overall: great video 👏🏼

[@Mark-jy6xd]

Beautiful watch but I can't help but always think of the Cosmograph failing to go to the moon and having to add the name Daytona for being second place.

[@airmikeliu]

My ad sold me one for retail. God is good 🙏🏼

[@wanttotree]

All this crazy demand started in 2019 right. I wonder if it will ever fade. I think it may. I hope every watch lover out there will get theirs sooner or later. I hate that i started wanting one at such a bad time.

[@WatchSociety]

Prices had come down to what it use to be this time around last year and some how fulfillment is picking up ❤️

[@ronniep9272]

@@WatchSociety that's because the ADs are in on the Rolex scam.

Great Video, Congrats % Thanks. Have the same Daytona, for msrp. I wear it quite often. And by the way.. "EXPERIENCE"

[@WatchSociety]

❤️ I saw 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@darthsimon4393]

The issue with current model is Authorized Dealers get 2-3 per year, and they never make their showcase. So demand is by far exceeding supply. Hence 26-35k price tag with grey market dealers.

[@isok777]

Rolex, VC , and Patek are the way. Done with AP.

[@scottwexlin6456]

Of all my favorites, the Daytona is not really on my "want" list. Many others I'd rather have before this. Good thing, 'cause I'd never ever get one from my AD. That being said, I wouldn't kick one off my wrist!

[@kevinl6231]

Even my Boutique says they get only 1 a year😐.

[@Mark..P]

Great review (eventually 🤣). I love the black dial Daytona and for me it is a keeper in the collection. 🙌👏🥃

[@watchguy8537]

Congratulations my friend! This is a beautiful watch and a grail piece… tons of history, pedigree and prestige while being practical and actual wearable on a daily basis. Your watch collection has evolved significantly recently… time for a State of the Collection video? 🤔

[@watchusiast1400]

Another great video 🙌🙌🙌

[@anonymoushuman8962]

Me got that one 2021! I barely wear it though lol. The black dial is going for gbp 35k? I am currently wearing my 2020 ss yachmaster 2 One of my 13 Rolex 6 AP and 2 PP. all from my AD. My favourite is my James Cameron deepsea and my AP blue dial 41mm chrono, I also have two date 41mm APs black and white dial too…. only with second hand and date at 3pm. My very favourite piece is my blue dial 39mm jumbo AP. I collect them! PS I am not being funny but I got mine within three weeks. It took longer to get than my jumbo, pepsi and even my wimbledon Datejust 41 with two tone everrose gold. My 41mm green OP I got at retail now it’s going for gbp28k. It’s insane. I am very happy to own them and wouldn’t dream of selling one of them. Also congrats on getting your Daytona… they truly are beautiful pieces.

Have a pre ceramic black dial. Too small for my wrist. Hardly wear. Prefer the case of Submariner or GMT master

[@derekbrettell8121]

I agree. I've tried a few on and they are too small for most mens wrists. They look nicer on women

[@connorwang3442]

[@_-MiamiVice-_]

Daytona is one of the worst chronographs to get if you want a chrono that you use regularly as a part of your active lifestyle. Hard to read small sub-dials, especially at quick glance, not readily avaiable chrono buttons, unless you keep them unscrewed which makes the watch look silly

[@ronniep9272]

I don't think anyone uses a chronograph to time anything. Most people will just use their phone, a dive bezel is actual more useful day to day. But yes the Daytona is too small to be a chronograph and I hate those bullet holes in the subdials.

[@_-MiamiVice-_]

@@ronniep9272 I'm sure there are people like me who like to live their lives as much offline and as much not using smartphones as possible. So for us a chrono is very useful. Be it cooking food, wanting to time some travel, or your walks/hikes/runs. A dive bezel can be also useful, i agree as it can be used to mark a second time zone, with some flash maths in the head, do some countdown or timing as long as it doesn't have to be dead accurate, or can be used to display the date, if your watch is a no date function. My omega mk40 speedmaster is even smaller than a daytona yet much easier to read, and a great tool watch for my everyday needs. Of course shame on the very low water resistance.

[@andrewm9669]

I think the black dial Daytona is far nicer than the panda, it looks better on the wrist. Or as I like to call them, the darth Vader and storm trooper.

[@leekindell9937]

I got mine on grey market two weeks ago. Black face is best for sure. Are you gutted a year later the new revised model coming out.

[@The_Great_Hejaz]

Daytona best price, best time accuracy, best after sale customer service, well made timepieces that rarely they need to repair and most important thing that Rolex watches hold price better than any other watch brand , whenever you try to find a con in Rolex will find yourself compelled to admit it is best watches brand

[@WatchSociety]

Well said

[@ronniep9272]

You can't get one at retail. If you buy second hand the value could drop.

[@The_Great_Hejaz]

@@ronniep9272 no problem I can waite 4 years

[@ronniep9272]

@@The_Great_Hejaz they won't let you buy one without you buying several other watches that you don't want. They won't put you on a waiting list. Most dealers won't even put people on lists for submariners without them buying other watches.

Can you do a 6 month review on the wrist? I just received my call for same watch and like to hear your thoughts. Thanks

Sure thing and congratulations 🎈🎉🎊

[@seaguls9974]

Like your POV! Marketing plus cult feel created by demand supply imbalance is insane!! As much as you say heck with Rolex, you can’t just get rid of them from your aspirational list! BTW, super cute kid!!

[@slimysmiles8979]

No one can deny the watch. My feeling however is to skip on the Daytona and pick up the tudor chrono

[@josephchiarelli6240]

Rolex best watch hands down although there playing that game of hard to get on all sport watches but definitely a quality watch nice pick up

[@kevinl6231]

Let’s say you’re 60 years and wait to get one at an AD. By the time you get called, you might be too old to enjoy it. Such is the case for older people to buy secondary.

[@ermir4444]

The new AP chronos in 41 ref 26240 run rings around this Daytona in any respect of the watch game. Other than that, great video.

[@CartierCrash]

There’s a massive price difference too

[@The_real_Mr_Ghost]

AP Chrono is garbage quality. I have owned a few. Had a lot of issues with them. Daytona is a superior watch specially as a sports watch.

[@t.h.1982]

The Daytona... my least favourite Rolex. A lovely piece, a rich history and a huge fanbase. A Flex like no other watch, but just not my kind. A bit too basic, not that it is basic in any way, its A Daytona after all, but everywhere you go you see a Daytona. Social Media, Nightclubs even our weatherman wears one. There was just too much exposure to this watch, no excitement anymore. Not to discredit the watch itself, public made it boring

[@BrianBTeman-in2rc]

Love my replica

When it comes to chronographs... Sorry but always ZENITH.

[@porscheoscar]

Boy I'm really mixed on Rolex. I love vintage Rolex. But this new artificial suppression of supply by what is inherently a mass producer of watches really has me losing all interest in buying another Rolex. I hear stories of people being banned for flipping their mass produced Rolex. Kind of absurd to me. For as long as I can remember it was wiser to buy a used Rolex because the Daytona aside, you were losing money on the Rolex the minute you walked out of the AD. Very recently yes the quality took a major move up but so did the pricing. So it's not really a value proposition in my book. You're paying for every bit of that durability many times over for what is essentially very unremarkable movements. And the brand itself has become a "flex" brand among noobies with crypto cash burning a hole in their pockets. But we're already seeing a steep steep drop in those outlandish grey market prices from winter time. Personally I don't rate Rolex is the realm of Patek, Vacheron, A. Lange or Breguet. Rolex have no heritage as an inhouse movement maker and their bracelets and dials were also outsourced until recent acquisitions. If you can score a good deal on a not very ubiquitous Rolex reference it's a good bet for a daily. But sooner or later a mass producer is going to have to start mass producing again.
