Fantastic piece!
Congratulations on a beautiful Daytona, it looks fantastic on you! Awesome pickup!
Really appreciate your kind words, dear Greg!
Rolex hit it out of the park with the 126506. A collector’s dream come true…
P.S.: And I am not a great Daytona fanboy!

Congrats, Thomas! The weakness towards platinum Daytona is totally understandable. Enjoy this precious reference in good health. Cheers, Henry
Thank you, Henry! ☺️🙏
Totally agree – this reference is a weakness I’m quite happy to surrender to. Wishing you great health and many more perfect Rolex moments as well!
Cheers

Thank you! 😊
Platinum makes everything better – including the wrist feel and the emotional weight!
Now this IS my favorite Daytona! 😁
Appreciate your kind words! It's climbed to the top of my own list, too – pure Rolex magic.
And I say that as someone who hasn’t been a huge Daytona fan.

Thank you – glad you like it!
That combo of icy dial and warm brown really is a rare and beautiful contradiction.
You thought you could have a platonic relationship to this Platona?
Congrats to your new love affair. 😃
Yes, Moritz, yes!!!
Romantic as I am, I actually believe in platonic love! At least when it comes to watches. LOLLLL.
Somehow, that must be true, because if I bought everything I liked. OMG... then I'd end up in debt or in a mental institution. Or both. 😅

No, this is just normal. Love at first sight. I am very happy for you, my friend. Bravo!
A good friend told me some years ago:
„Normal“ is just a setting on the washing machine. LOLLL
This Daytona in Platinum?
Definitely not normal (like me 🙏) — and I love it that way.

nice surprise!
yes, this ice blue is really something! Having the DD 40 in platinum with ice blue dial I know what you are talking about. I am still waiting for the 1908 in platinum....
Enjoy your new toy in best of health!
Thanks a lot, dear fellow ice-blue fan! 🙏☺️
Your DD40 in Platinum is a stunner too – fingers crossed for your 1908 in platinum. Its such a great dress watch! May your wait be shorter than mine! 😉🙏
All the best

The latest boom, and hopefully the last boom for a while. I need to take a break!!!!!
But I definitely don’t regret it!

Thank you, dear Captain! 🙏
What fascinates me most at the moment are the different color shades, especially of the dial depending on the light…

I can only say, that it is ............
.......... a nice mistake of your taking the call from the AD, and walking into the boutique. Congratulations, Thomas, on acquiring a watch that you really love and enjoy wearing!
LOLLLL… I fear I have been exposed! 😂
Haha yes, a “mistake” I’ll happily repeat any day! Thanks for the kind words, dear Henry – this one’s truly a keeper.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Lars!
It wears very comfortable and I have got used to its weight already.
I never had the chance to try the older
reference 1165 on my wrist but I suppose it wears heavier. My 1265 has a sapphire case back and so less platinum.
It’s not the first platinum watch I own. Therefore I am used to it and not too surprised.
And a friend of mine who owns the 1165 also confirms that after a few hours he didn’t feel the weight anymore.
Thank you for your nice comment! 🙏☺️

Wow, wow, wow!
The king within the kingdom
A grail for most(me included), with so much innovation in one single reference.
I’m glad you got it, since you’re a collector who understands the brand/model, beyond the hype and price.
Enjoy in great health!

Dear Zsolt – what a fantastic response and compliment.
Truly appreciate your words, especially coming from someone who clearly gets the essence of collecting beyond the hype. Wishing you all the best in your own horological journey!
Heartfelt greetings also from this beauty! ☺️
