Let's lighten up this Tuesday. Show me all your meteorite dials in any reference as Rolex made it for many different models over the years.
I will start with my 116509 meteorite dial 😁
That's one of the nicest versions of the Daytona I've seen.
No meteorite in my collection but I have tried a platinum Day-Date with meteorite and diamonds dial long ago. I fell in love immediately. A meteorite dial, from no brand in particular, is something I'd like to have someday.
I agree. While the GMT meteorite is now the coveted model with the meteorite dial, we must not forget about the Daytonas or Day/Dates as well 😉
My favorite PM Daytona is still this 116509 meteorite, even more than the platona. Now if they made a platona with a meteorite dial, all bets are off 😁
Many Rolex models with the Meteorite? I was aware of the Daytona and the much more recent GMT MASTER. [nt]

Here’s one. By the way I love your Daytona. I had it long ago and regret that I no longer have it.
We all share the same sickness I am afraid but luckily we have a great support group to share it with 😉 [nt]

Yes my friend. Many. Come over here and let’s play with watches! [nt]

Well I am getting a bit embarrassed here. I am the farthest thing from a boaster and would hate to be perceived as such. I really can’t share these with anyone but all you. Portland is not a “watch town.” It’s really a private passion for me. But I do
love to share with the forum.
Don't worry Ed, no one here thinks you are boasting. I am sure I can speak for all of us in saying that we appreciate your posts and you sharing your passion of watches with us. We all suffer from the same sickness [nt]

Thank you very much. I really appreciate your kind words. I’m really sensitive about that and I love to share with all of you because you’re right, we share the same addiction. It’s a great community. [nt]

I have tried it on a few times as I have a couple friends who own it so I would have to wholeheartedly agree 😁 [nt]
