Nice comparison and thanks for sharing your opinions [mention]Tobel [/mention]

May I ask you if you can measure the weight of both? Could be a great addition to this thread. Thanks :)

With 2 links removed on each, the gen 116520 is 139g and the rep 116500 is 132g. Keep in mind that the 116520 has a metal bezel Vs. the 116500 that has a ceramic bezel which I suspect is a little lighter.

Yes..... Thank you very much for this review.

Could you please compare the colour of the word DAYTONA above the subdial?
I have found the reps in general are more orange rather than red of the gen.
Thanks in advance.

It doesn't matter, the DAYTONA font colour in red is the same in both black or white dials. In your pictures, it looks a bit orangey which is exactly the problem I have with one previously.

I don't know that it is the same colour between a 2013 black dialed 116520 and a 116500 white dial, and I don't know whether it's supposed to be the same thickness of the printing, which combined to a dark Vs. Light background also impact how you perceive a colour. This is why I didn't make that comparison, I don't think it makes sense

Thanks for the great review and pics bro. Looking forward to picking up a 116520 and swapping in a Noob dial. Or maybe CF will come out with a fast V2 like they did with the Pepsi. Nice to see some great Daytonas available again.

Hi

I am planning to buy a cf panda one but i am bothered by the straight line 3 points on the crown.

Does someone know where I can buy a nice one not being a gen?

May I buy a new stem too?

Thanks guys

It's a stunner, so thanks again & enjoy :thumbsup:

Thank you for the 1:1 comparison. Are you ever planning on getting a CF 116520 to compare with your gen?
