What’s up KZfaq!
Today I wanted to talk about Rolex’s newest, most badass Daytona ever created. I go over what you need to know, and speculate further on why Rolex decided to release this special edition Daytona.
Is this an innocent celebration? Or Act 1 in a much more devious plan Rolex has in store.
Thanks for watching,
Wear your watches!

It’s silly to think Rolex would ever stop selling the stainless steel, submariner and Daytona they sell so many of them they would never stop making them

I agree with you Negroni, this makes me suspect this is how Rolex bumps up a notch their watches to compete with higher horology. Eventually steel models will be solely for Submariner and some GMTs while Daytonas, Day Dates and Yatchmasters will come in gold. The go-between will be datejusts which will come in both steel two tone and maybe some in full gold?

Even further, I believe Rolex will eventually bring back iconic iterations of all their sports models, but in this higher tier premium version. They have to devise ways to keep big collectors happy. Big collectors = big money

@@ChristopherNegroni to be honest I feel like the Daytona, together with the Nautilus and Royal Oak are the most overhyped and overpriced watches in today’s (aftermarket) industry. The fact that they are has more to do with the power of the internet and social media than with the true value of these watches. Maybe I’m a bit biased because I’m not a huge fan of Gerald Genta design watches. I think this special edition Daytona is Rolex proving the industry that subtle is king. The fact that they modified the movement just for for the 24hr subdial shows that they didn’t just want to make a quick profit. Only a true watch enthusiast will spot this watch and know it’s something special. Only thing I wish they didn’t do is the display caseback but same goes for the Platona.

@@Maarten_official_account I echo your sentiment, I too believe these watches are somewhat overvalued compared to other timepieces. But I also think some of the hype is justified and can be explained by the changing fashion and what people value. People dress very differently now, it’s much more acceptable to dress casually, so it makes sense that sporty designs with higher water resistance would gain popularity.

@Maarten_official_account Жыл бұрын
@@ChristopherNegroni True, the world is becoming more casual and even the more dressy watch has a place in this changing world. Even though there’s no dresswatch to be found in my own collection I admire the guy casually wearing a Reverso with jeans and a plain t-shirt. One day I’ll be that guy. But 100k for a steel, date only, PP or AP isn’t justifiable in my opinion. I hope I’m making myself clear because English isn’t my native language.

you really can't blame rolex. the blame is on the consumers who pushed the secondary value on basic good tool watches. A coworker bought a pepsi GMT master II when they were first introduced in the 70's, he was amazed when I told him that beat up 50 yr. old watch is going for 4 times what he paid for it.

The design of the Le Mans is beautiful. The lack of availability highlights that Rolex likes to flex more then have its customers wear its watches. Seems Rolex wants to design and manufacture Safe Queen watches. Sadly, the host of the video is grinning in this video, but it is so sad that you hype a watch which only a rare view will be allowed to buy.

Patek limited production sells for thousands more. Yes I get it not same quality. But why not step up the quality make less and make more money. It make sense.
