Anyone familiar enough with La Palina cigars to identify this vitola?

 

It measures 6.5x42 and nothing in my inventory app's database matches it.

 

Also has a pigtail cap in case you can't tell in the picture.

 

Thanks,

Sean

The closest that I can find is the La Palina Goldie Dalia, but it is supposed to come in at 6.75x43. 
Yeah, that's the closest I have found too, but I'm 100% confident that mine is 6.5x42 as measured with a caliber and a board with scale and holes for rg.

Get exactly the same dimensions from both tools

It's the La Palina Goldie Dalia.
Since it was released in 2016, it's entirely conceivable the filler has lost enough moisture to reduce it from a 43 to a 42 RG.

That I could see as I don't know its age.
But both the ruler and caliper measure exactly 6.5 inch rather than 6.75 for the Dalia

The Dalia is the only one of the Goldie series that is really anywhere close so I think you can assume it is that one.

Maybe they are including the extra length of the pigtail in the stated length measurement in which case the overall length would come to 6-3/4? As far as the ring gauge I'm guessing there has been some shrinkage with 5 years of age.

Very possibly.
Already set it as the Dalia in my app
