Sorry I could not be at Watches and Wonders 2023 due to my deteriorating health. But here’s some updates: At first glance, this is nostalgic, new markers are more like 16520 than 116520. I guess Chromalight (blue) is so powerful and bright it doesn’t have to be a big blob (116520 & 116500LN) anymore. Thin stripes are suffice and they look more refined and elegant. like 16520 El Primero Daytonas (my favourite!❤️ Ditto with thinner hands(?). The “bomb” is the sapphire crystal see-through caseback on the “Platona”. Knowing Rolex so well, obviously in a few years’ time all material Daytonas will have a see through caseback. Those introduction would ensure Daytona mania for years to come. My prediction? 2024 See through caseback Everose Daytona. 2025 Rodium and Yellow Gold’s turn. 2026 Rolesor; and 2027 126500LN. Can you imagine the waiting list for the Daytonas in the next few years?

🚨 BUYERS BEWARE! In the good old days, Japan was the safest place to buy a used Rolex. As no self-respecting Japanese watch dealers would pull dirty tricks like these: 1. In the case of 1990s Daytona 16520s with service dials, they were asking ¥800k (if I find some old pics in Ginza, I will post them) while proper ones (T SWISS MADE T) were ¥2.5mil back in 2019. Obviously, only mugs would buy the service dial ones even at those prices… (Because they are the opposite of a collectible/investment grade Rolex!) 2. “Original papers”? One thing for sure: no dealers in Japan can plead ignorance. Instead, they deliberately misled. . #16710 #16520 #rolexknowledge #rolexinformation #montres #rolexcollector #daytona #gmtmaster2 #submariner #rolex #collectingwatches #tritiumdial #rolexwatches #zenithdaytona #timedealer #watchfam #watchscam #watchcollector #perpetual #gmtmaster #101031 #perpetual #rolexcollectorsaustralia #rolexwatch #watchknowledge #horology #watchenthusiastmelbourne #buyingarolex #watchdealer #orologio @mondanibooks @mondaniweb @mondanidoc @hodinkee @phillipswatches @rolex @rolexcollectorsaustralia @andychanrolex @wristporn @wristwatchporn @timedealerhotmail @rolexinformation @rolexknowledge @rolexdiver @christieswatches @sothebys @sothebyswatches @bobswatches @watchesofinstagram @wristporn @netaporter @mrporterwatches @watchbox (at Tokyo Japan) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cig782MLPN8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
