126500LN Rolex Daytona Panda 🐼 Brand New 2023 Unboxing Review - First in U.K 

Finally an unboxing of the new 12 series Daytona. Rolex killed it with this one, looks gorgeous. Since I want that watch to wear and not invest, black dial for me all day long. Thanks for the video! 🙏

Ok so I finally got the call for my white Daytona back in march of this year.. exactly 7 days before the watches and wonders releases -- and I have to say, I was bummed out after watches and wonders because I DO like this new one better…. I still love mine but I actually disagree with what you were saying about how it wears.. to me, the new 12 series looks alittle larger due to the beefier case, which also is finally symmetrical and the lugs curve downward too giving a touch more thickness.. I have a 7.75 inch wrist so that very slight size increase actually benefits me Again, still do love mine but I wish I could’ve gotten this one… So what I told my AD was maybe they can get it for me in the black dial :)

Thanks for sharing. Glad I like the old one better in steel, but prefer the new ones in precious metals

116500LN Panda 🐼 KING 👑

I prefer the older bezel w/o the metal right, but totally personal preference

I believe the skinny inner circles are there to match proportion of the skinnier look of the ceramic ring

Love it bought one

I prefer 116500

Thanks for the solid video, I enjoyed it. I absolutely love the Daytona, and have owned several in the past including a black-dial 116500LN which was my favorite. I'm undecided on the 126500; but it's a fantastically gorgeous watch to be sure, and I'm not really that upset by the changes. Liked & subscribed.

Aesthetically, I would have to say the Old reference is still King.

Very similar. The new one is a bit more vintage looking to me and the winner.

Its lovely but 10 grand more than a unworn previous model! Not sure its worth that premium. Ive got the steel bezel one

I’ve just bought the older model on Saturday it’s amazing

I like the new Daytona, I have great relationship with my boutique and sales associate as well as a purchase history of over 100k, my SA told me that I can get a Daytona steel next, last purchase was a day date 40 white gold olive green dial, waiting game started.

Wow so 2023 the older Version was still made ? I’m sure I can find an unworn version out there on the grey market

The new black 126500 is nicer. Looks more serious and elegant.

If to take into consideration that there are 140 million was born in 2023, and maybe only 1000 Daytonas was released in the same year. This watch with its black counterpart will be a good investment. Information for those who thinks that Rolexes, especially Daytonas are not a good investment

New and old model are not much different for me both new and old models are both great all time stunning pieces

I do like the new one, however my only caveat is the larger white plots in the sub-dials.

Finally released, eagerly awaited 🤌⌚👏🍾

36995 pounds?? are you kidding? i believe the 116500ln white dial is just 24500 pounds.

Very nice watch

Yikes, I know this is one of the first batches to hit the market, but prices here in HK for brand new is already at $23k GBP. A few dealers already listing around that price now. 👀

Old reference all day!

A side by side video would have been good

It’s stunning. 😍

Understated style, but a tidy sum.

How do you know its the first in the UK? or is it the first flipped one?

Anyone who buys it at this price £37k now is a fool and this guy knows it.

❤ it want one 😢

I don’t know about the women’s bracelet. I’ve seen a few men now wearing women’s jewelry. If you’re zesty you’re zesty I guess.

First one in the UK was flipped.

Rolex daytona 116500LN is a better watch.

Crown guards are bigger and indices are smaller as well

Whats the list on this piece? Is it unworn ( true unworn)

2024 you will get it for under 30k € - 100%…times changed

The 11 series Ceramic Daytona is far more elegant as well it’s movement was perfect and legendary. Rolex changed the Daytona just for the sake of change and it shows as it brings nothing more to the already perfect model. The metal ring now under the ceramic 12 series Daytona bezel cheapens the look and will be a scratch/ding magnet. The more squared off lugs make the model look less “special”?

This is not a PANDA! People really do not know what a panda watch dial is.

3x list you’re having a laugh.

It’s not the first in the UK cause my friend had it for 2 weeks

Like almost everything about the new Daytona .:… but the thinner sub dials are a mistake!

So much more watch you can but for 37k. Dont be a sheep...

Flipper good profit 😂

Ill pick the Longines, instead

“l'ennemi du bien est le bien” - perfect is the enemy of good.

Rolex Daytona 126500LN is a better watch.
