I have an opportunity to pick up a a mint condition S/S Daytona M serial or a brand new 2 Tone DJ ll with full warranty for the same price. Which one would you take? I can only afford one. Thanks

Longhorn · 22 June 2012, 08:35 PM

I would pick up a Daytona. I'm not big on TT and TT DJs don't usually have as big of a market if you want to sell it down the line.

GermanyMatt · 22 June 2012, 08:36 PM

If you already have a DJ and a GMT IIc, then I'd go Daytona.

HL65 · 22 June 2012, 08:40 PM

Daytona

Daytona, it's got the retained value, plus you'll be choosing an iconic Rolex model. However, you've got to ask yourself, which one do YOU like the most?

Monte Cristo · 22 June 2012, 09:14 PM

Daytona, thanks for asking

nick c · 22 June 2012, 09:20 PM

Daytona

HORNBLOWER · 22 June 2012, 09:53 PM

The daytona all day long, but its your cash, whatever floats your boat!

swissautopro · 22 June 2012, 09:58 PM

Daytona hands down. Two entirely different watches. Don't let the new/used issue confuse you. Sport or dress ... that is the question.

TempoKing · 22 June 2012, 09:59 PM

Skoda or Maserati..?

Daytona! Btw, you can probably pick up an almost brand new TT Daytona for the same price, then you have the best of all worlds. Check out the TT with the Panda dial, gorgeous piece! The slate TT Daytona is a beauty too.

kilyung · 22 June 2012, 10:03 PM

Daytona

inspires · 22 June 2012, 10:06 PM

Daytona

Trouble15 · 22 June 2012, 10:41 PM

Based on the watches you have already, I say Daytona.

z32turbo · 22 June 2012, 10:51 PM

Daytona for me over the DJII

floater156 · 22 June 2012, 11:07 PM

DJII - I got rid of my previous watch because it became too annoying not to have a date function. Plus, the bezel on the DJII is so beautiful. I also prefer the look of a dressier watch over a sport watch.

Daytona is a whole other choice.

Hate sound like a broken record. Daytona!

kcmo · 23 June 2012, 01:12 AM

Another Daytona vote here! But then again, I'm not a DJ2 or a TT fan.

shirtguy · 23 June 2012, 01:29 AM

new all the way

khmyjy · 23 June 2012, 05:56 AM

I just went to the AD and tried both on the D/J ll is a little big b/c of the longer lugs but the fluted bezel is amazing. Daytona is the perfect size for my 6 in wrist but not as flashy. Hard decision.

Sam Philip · 23 June 2012, 06:20 AM

Pics?

vintagewaferthin · 24 June 2012, 08:30 AM

Go for the Daytona. Personally I find the dj 2 ugly. If you really want a dj go for a dj 36mm.

Tan · 24 June 2012, 08:57 AM

I'd go with the DJ2 black roman.
