Rolex had better solve the ceramic Pepsi bezel insert's cracking problem. That's a pretty serious defect, and not the good kind (like patina, fading, etc.).

It’s pretty rare. I wouldn’t call it a defect. Couple photos circulate online and now all of a sudden everyone is saying the bezels are fragile 😅

This was never on my radar a few years back, it was always the Batman since this seemed unachievable and I had “realistic” goals so never considered. I was saving for one, got a call from my AD for the TT CHNR even though it wasn’t on my list, I didn’t want to risk having a purchase history so I ended up buying it and not loving it, moved it on for a small profit. Cut to, finally was in the position to buy a Batman through the gray, thanks to recent YT channel growth and success and even bought the Starbucks. I soon realized how much I wanted the 116500ln Panda and made a trade for the Batman and Starbucks for the Panda. Owned it for about 5 months and for some idiotic reason, I traded it for, wait for it… a Batman plus cash. Not even a month has gone by and I realized I made a mistake. The Daytona proportions and the over feel were just second to none, aside from my first Rolex the Polar Explorer 5 digit… I am now in the process of trading my Batman+cash to get my damn Panda back! And yes, I agree the 126 Panda just doesn’t do it for me. Hard to improve on the 116500! Great video!

Wow! I thought I was crazy! 🤪 just kidding! It’s funny when I hear other collectors stories of buying and selling and getting the same watch back and selling it again. We’ve all been there at some point. I hope you get that panda back and this time it sticks. I know my panda hasn’t left my wrist.

@@ChristopherNegroni Wouldn't you agree that there is too much hype about the Rolex Pepsi? Some of the videos are downright disingenuous. "Made by the hands of angels." "My life is now complete." I just watch Rolex videos that YT suggests to me. As soon as I see that they are about the Rolex Pepsi I click them off. Even videos that claim to be about another model (e.g. Batman) end up being mostly about the Rolex Pepsi.

No watch fades, patina, hands get darker etc....and show the wear and tear like A Seiko SKx or a Seiko 6309. As a matter of fact, if i go to the beach I much rather have a Seiko SKX or 6309 on, than any other watch for aforementioned reasons. You can keep the newer Sapphire crystals and bezeks that do not show wear.....they are not a tool watch, they are a piece of jewelry.

Agreed that the new steel Daytona is a let down from this classic. There is less “Panda” going on with the thinner sub-dials and bezel. Just doesn’t have the same visual impact. I like the new precious metals versions just fine, as they were already larger cases before, but I’m not buying the new Panda to replace my current one, just isn’t an upgrade:

I was wearing my SD4K when I went shopping for a new car several months ago here on the island of Phuket, where I have lived for over 26yrs. The Thai Chinese Sales Rep whom I’ve known for about 20yrs…… warned me about gangs of youngsters targeting foreigners. He mentioned an Expat having dinner at a restaurant when a couple young locals got their hands on him and his watch. I agree with you when you say that my SD4K should be worn, but I’m no longer living/working in Abu Dhabi/ Dubai.
