There's a lot to like on that watch. Kill all the stupid color stuff and it's a much improved Daytona. Where can I find more info?

If I had 26,600 CHF, this would be my preference for one of their customized 116520s :clap:

At least you can read the time (unlike most daytonnas)

Ditch the orange sub seconds hands for silver, tone the centre seconds down a bit and it'd be ok.

Lose the Brooklyn branding and I'd wear it. Although, how are these any different than those Tempus Machina mods?

Awful. Simply awful.

The white dial looks cool.

Not different. That "Big Red" creation is a beautiful 6263 homage. It baffles me why the "aficionados" hate on these to the extent they do, but that alone would scare the shit out of me from a resale perspective.

Isn't this the same designer company who did the Lenny Kravitz Daytona?

I wasn’t born in Brooklyn and wouldn’t wear it either.

Actually looks better in the 1st (top) pic and awful in the live shots.

For sure. Don't watch Spike Lee "joints", and damn sure wouldn't wear that watch.

Looks like a micro homage to Daytona/Omega/Hanhart it's a Daymegart.
