Congrats It's beautiful.

The book fits in the box because you have the medium size box. SS watches get the small box, TT get medium. The booklet won't fit in the small box.

Wow...didn't even know that one existed. But I am happy to learn that it does ...that dial combo is one of my favorites, and that new bezel is just...amazing.

Congrats!!

Yes you are right my friend..!

I just have not seen the two boxes side by side....so I don't know what is their size difference.

Incoming: New 2016 Daytona 116503 TT Steel/Gold Blue Dial

Not so popular among Rolex WIS's, but what I like about it is:

3. The Arabic luminous numbers
4. The Laser printed bezel Markings
5. And the unpopularity of this reference.

Call me crazy, but I always thought, that the collectible references of the future were not popular at all, when they were initially released..
And for that reason they were not massively produced, because there wasn't high demand for them, leaving them with less models sold and making them more rare in the upcoming decades..

Note: notice the new bezel protector with the rubber closure.


Finally, I find the "Daytona Instruction Manual " to fit very easily into the watch box.

Did they made it smaller ?
Because, lately I read members complaining, about the fit of the instruction manual booklet, into the watch box, with the manual booklet being too big for the box or the box being too small for the manual booklet :)











Bezel Protector - Updated



Lume..





And a family picture..



Sweet pick, congrats! See on the family picture a black 116520 too 😊

I love arabic dials too on Daytonas 👍🏻

Yeap ✌️ it's actually a 16520 ..

Love the Arabic's too, but love the simplicity of the stick dials also.. (Especially on a Daytona, which already has a busy dial).

Was between the racing blue that I got and the black dial..

That's actually my favorite Daytona! I couldn't source one other than a high priced pre owned, so I went with TT GMT.
But I love the Blue and the lume on that Daytona, CONGRATS!!!

Thanks for the love guys!
I enjoyed a lot your wishes and enthousiasm.

I was torn between dials on this one, plus i have a feeling, we might see new (or old re- introduced dials) this year !
