Hi,
From time to another I wonder why all this hysterics about the Daytona? Why do people spend huge amounts to get this watch? Is it the history of it, its "beauty", "moneymaking" or what?
My opinion is that its neither "beautiful" nor cool - it's more or less an illusion. I find the sub, sea-dweller and gmt much more cool and the datejust much more "beautiful".
So folks - why buy the Daytona?
Regards,
Claus
... because i got it for the official catalogue price :D :D :D!!!

If you don't want it, don't buy it - simple as that.
It's a nice watch but highly overrated... ;)
Everyone knows there are only 2 ways to get a Daytona because its supply is strictly limited: (I am not considering the alternative of putting your name on the waiting list of an authorized dealer and wait for several decades):
1) pay a mark-up of several thousand Euros to get it immediately
2) buy 2 platinum DDs and get one Daytona for free
2) If you own one, the public can conlcude that you are personally known by a dealer which is sort of equivalent to spending a reasonable sum for jewellery on an ongoing basis -> you must be successful in your profession
or
1) You have enough money to spend 8k EUR for a watch which has a retail price of 5.7k. Therfeore, you openly show your disregard for hard-earned money which undoubtedly proves that you are successful in your profession
In conclusion, the only reason is to show-off. :D :D :D
never understood it. but: Each to his own!
Daytona: the watch no one can get and everybody has.
New retail is 6.1k Euro, isn´t it?? So the markup isn´t that high :D
Daytona is getting overvalued :D
Was soll des Gerede über die Daytona ? Wer einen Chronografen von Rolex möchte oder gebrauchen kann, kommt nicht an ihr vorbei. Möglicherweise wird insbesondere die Stahlausführung von Rolex knapp gehalten. Der Sinn einer solchen Politik erschliesst sich mir allerdings nicht, denn wenn Rolex mehr Uhren verkauft, kann auch mehr Geld verdient werden. Aus Bildern und Beiträgen schliesse ich, dass die Daytona hier im Forum schon fast inflationär vertreten ist und die Besitzer geniessen den Gedanken, bei einem eventuellen Verkauf Gewinn zu machen.
Über Geschmacksfragen will ich mich hier nicht auslassen, immerhin, es herrscht kein Kaufzwang.... ;)

The Daytona,i am talking about the stainless steel model,is totally underrated for its beauty.Rolex should do a price markup to 10k,so jewelers could discount it at 9k.The only people i hear complaining about the watch are those,who don`t have or can`t get one.These are quite a lot,i admit.

Daytona steel is the most wanted watch in the hole glory world. Why ? I don´t know =)
I had one last week, I thought its not worth the hype around. If one doesn`t know the hype, its a watch you would estimate much more cheaper.
Its not better than a Sub oder a SD.
