2nd Rolex / TT Blue Sub or TT Daytona Panda

Hello TRF,

I need your advice for my decision of 2nd Rolex purchase.

I am now with DSSD 2012 and it is extremely accurate. I will never put it on sales, so my next target would be Sub LB, pre-owned. However, my friend yesterday was offering me a deal for his TT Daytona Panda 2013 with full box and pp, with only USD 1,800 higher than what I would pay for the TT Sub.

I am more for the simple dial of the Sub, and actually I am not convinced by the Chronograph Dial. However, friends was telling me that I could have higher profile Daytona for only 1,800 difference with the Sub, so I should go for the Daytona.

What are your opinions for the case?

Thanks!!!

I prefer solid colors on the Daytona, so for me the 116613LB wins. Sounds like you also prefer the Sub, so ignore what your friends think since YOU'RE the one buying...

That deepsea is beyond too big

Trade the deepsea for a no date and buy a black dial daytona ...

Bluesy for me. I need the date function and prefer the wrist presence of the Sub. Good luck!

It's a bit redundant having already a DSSD, to get a sub will make the sizes confusing in my opinion.. I also prefer the Daytona in other dial colors.

The TT blue sub was my second Rolex to compliment my GMT Master Ceramic. It's such a beauty. I love it in low light.

Love the Panda, but I would follow your heart and get the Sub, that was what you were interested in anyways!

That Daytona is beautiful and they are so comfy you may not wear your DSSD!

But the TT sub is also a stunner, but you have a dive watch

Good choice! As Tom said, the Daytona is the most comfortable Rolex I have ever worn.
