Green dial Daytona ref: 116508
Following John Mayer’s 2nd Talking Watches video on Hodinkee I knew demand for the green dial Daytona had increased dramatically but couldn’t quite believe the extent?!?
Many grey dealers now asking about £40k for them whilst list is £26k !
Any TZ members here got one?
If so can they post some wrist shots
and give their opinion ?

Watch collectors also have one listed for £45k this is described as discontinued not sure why.
This was listed at over £50k in June/July.

I’ve not seen one in the metal, but I actually think these solid gold Rolex sports watches are actually rather special... especially with the right dial, and the green on this is lovely.
Often bought by people who are, how shall we say, not that interested in watches, but, if that bothered me, I wouldn’t enjoy wearing any Rolex.
Very interesting that Mayer’s comments could cause such an increase, but he is properly interested in watches, so there are worse people to take a lead from. Interesting also that it hasn’t happened with the white gold, silver panda dial 116509 - that’s the closest thing to a plexiglass Daytona they’ve made.
