I don't blame you mate, have you considered custom tungsten case sets? I've seen a few recently that look surprisingly good. Plus, I think it may be a while before CF release a Tungsten 12X tona, and that's if they do at all

Yeah but not sure if there are any 12X tungsten Daytona cases yet. I've seen the Xing ones recently but need to check the case shape to see whether it's a 12X shape or a 11X PM case shape

QF for sure has a 12x tungsten case Daytona.

Hey Guys,
I am very much enjoying this thread for a while now.
Somehow the Stone Daytona itch catches me quite badly now too.
There is however not really an existing dial that i would consider perfect for me.
So i did a little photoshop montage to see how the perfect Daytona for me would look like.
I know its a long shot but is there any way that this could happen?
There are quite a few absolute legends out here with a serious skillset who might be able to produce such a dial?
Green sodalite exists too...

I wish I could say that after the 7 watches above have arrived I'd be done with Daytonas, but...
