Daytona 116519 Grey Dial From GOLD Factory inquiry

[kikata1997]

I wasn't aware of the existence of tungsten clasps, do you happen to have a photo?

Check here, its wg but they are pretty much the same for yg/rg but this is only one factory, maybe there are better ones. https://puretimewatch.io/daytona-11...l-on-oysterflex-strap-sh4130-mod-version.html

Thanks for that, going to put in an enquiry to see if they'd be willing to sell me one separately

Looks nice, can you share what was the price for it? Do you also happen to know the Weight difference between this one and the not tungsten version?

How is the quality of the apsf you ordered overall? Can it be compared to clean, btf or gold factory you think?

Can you tell me what factory makes this please? Is it APS ?

Damn !! Tungsten clasp !! Looks very nice !
The crown is a bit off IMO but it’s not shocking

I’ve also been made aware of a new “BD Factory” which weighs in at 157g, never heard of this factory before. Has anyone else?

The clasp came on the SWF mod daytonas listed on puretime. It was a bit heavier but overall I decided not to use it. The plating came back a dramatically different color and the overall quality of the clasp was not quite where I would like it to be. Specifically the tolerances on the closing and locking clasp.

You win some you lose some.

Could someone confirm if 116xxx and 126xxx Oyster Flex Daytona cases are the same?

Does anyone know the latest with Gold Factory, are they back in production?

 

[Keentje]

Hey all, how are you?

Just read this whole thread and learned alot. Have a Daytona 116519 from clean factory with grey dial on the way. Should i source an RB dial at this point? Haven't read much about the CF dial and it's accuracy to gen. Many thanks!

I just got QC from my dealer last week for RG one. He said my WG one should be within next couple weeks maybe.

Really? I’ve had an order with CTime and they just keep pushing off.

It took a while though, I placed my order end of April.
