The final two, daytona vs submariner date
Finally narrowed my search down to either the ss daytona black dial, I love how clean the watch is, slightly dressy, perfect for jean and tshirt as well as dressed up, my attire goes back and forth. The only thing will they def be doing a ceramic bezel in future? I'm not a huge fan of the bezel. Does anyone else feel that way..
The sub is my other though. Question date or no date? I want a sporty casual dressy watch that will always look good. I don't need a date. But thinking long term what's the better option for value? I've flipped 2 daytona's already...love the watch and made out on both... Thoughts? Also if it matters I'm not into racing or diving so...but need to be able To get both wet without worry? Also this will be my daily, and I'm a hairstylist so it will need to take a beating. Thoughts? |

As many already suggested in all of your threads, go try and see which one you like the most. You said you already flipped two Daytonas and now asking for opinion on a third one?
good luck in your search |

Still sticking with the Sub...and tomorrow, when you post another thread in the exact same topic, my answer will still be the Sub...

Seems like you buy and flip? If so, Daytona slightly better for you, money-wise.

Having just gotten an Explorer for its shear "plainness", I'd suggest the dateless sub. Just IMHO.

Don't ask us; you have to wear it and live with it. For me, I don't need a stop watch on my wrist. Nuff said.
