in the next year i quite fancy a nice sporty leather strapped watch i really like the leather strapped daytonas as below according to the website they only do them in white gold not ss so i presume they will be 12k +

you never really see them being spoken about are they not a popular model ?

Don't remember ever seeing a Daytona being worn on a strap, but it looks pretty nice.

One of the golden rules of expensive watch buying is to go for the one with the bracelet. It usually works out much cheaper than buying the bracelet later & at that sort of money you should be able to swing a free strap as part of the negotiation.

i am under the impression you cannot change the strap from metal to leather because of the way they fit the sholders are wrong to change between them

i think its a fantastic watch they do it with the metorite face

Quite right, the cases are different. You can fit a strap to a bracelet model but not vice versa.

There should be no problem getting anything other than an SS Daytona, these are the only ones with a waiting list (because they are the cheapest laugh) and the only ones people buy to sell at a profit.

i actually like the ss daytona but due to everyone wanting to buy to sell i refuse to pay a premium, the leather strap i think is so classy and makes the watch look so much different its deff next on my list

The ring around the outside is a little fussy and I much rather see a number 12 at the top of the dial than the maker's logo, just make the logo smaller, but it I agree it looks much less "bling" on a strap than a huge braclet.

No, the stainless steel Daytona is only available on the Oyster bracelet.
