I know members are tired of posts like this - but I have tirelessly searched this forum (and r/RepTime) to hopefully avoid posting this - but can't find a clear answer.
I know the sticky threads are helpful for showing which Daytonas are the best (and pros/cons) but haven't found anything on the 'John Mayer' green dial / YG Daytona.
So...looking at grabbing one from Chazing that is marked as "1:1" from KKF factory - but haven't found much on the KKF factory one.
I recall reading somewhere that 'Clean' or the (new) 'Noob' was thinking of releasing one, but can't seem to find that post anymore.
Planning on doing a little modding to it, specifically re-plating to improve accuracy of the gold color. But biggest concern is the dial. I know lots of them don't have the individual sunbursts on the chronos (this one from KKF does, although it's hard to tell from pics) and I saw another forum member had posted a gorgeous modded one that he said added the sunbursts to the chronos - but without much explanation.
I would just franken this and try to put a gen dial on there but I know that will be next to impossible.
So my question is, what do you suggest? Is the KKF one the best option? Does anyone own it? Or should I wait for another factory to hopefully produce a more improved version (which is probably unlikely after the raids)?
If this were you and money wasn't an object (relatively speaking at least, to keep it under $1,500-2,000) what would you purchase and which mods would prioritize?
Again , tried searching through tons of threads to avoid posting this, but it seems the 'John Mayer' hasn't been given enough attention - at least comparatively to the ceramics etc.
Thanks in advance all!
