116509 with arabic numerals
When I purchased this Daytona in 2007 new from the AD I gave it a preference to the SS version due to its solid weight and its dial.
Over the years I have started to dislike the weight (too heavy now for a days work) but I still like the dial. However, I have the impression that the two available dials with arabic numerals (this silver one and a black-grey version) are not very popular within the community. And Rolex seems to have discontinued them in the last years. What do you think about these arabic numeral Daytona dials nowadays - are they a keeper?

I like it a lot.
Great dial and I love the red hands. Defiantly a keeper but if you think that watch if heavy I don’t suggest you trade in for a Platinum. Enjoy your Daytona that you don’t see many of. M.
