Just refinished bracelet, case and bezel after wearing some months. Always love the „as new again“ look.

Question for anyone and everyone: Have you owned a 116500 or 126500 black dial and been underwhelmed by it on the wrist, tried a 126509 or 126529 (or another reference with solid sub-dials) and been completely in love with it?

the CF 126500 black dial is one of the nicest watches ive worn. Always prefered the panda until i tried that one. they did a great job

Currently on my Daytona journey to join the club. Was hoping to hear some thoughts, both good and bad (I know what I have planned may irk purists), on my build!

For my base, I'm using a Clean 116520 white dial and then swapping in a gen black 116520 dial with superluminova (SL) lume. I wanted a little more difference from my gen steel bezel speedy and I have a 126500 black ceramic bezel coming in so I thought why not? The newer bezel should fit on the older 116520 model... I am struggling to find a pair of SL hands though to match the dial...if anyone has an extra pair laying around I would love to get in touch with you!!!
