Fellow DD40 owner here, and I think you made the absolute right choice.

Maybe I'm just a tad biased?

EDIT: Just saw you picked up the DD. A most excellent choice...congrats!

Oh that’s a sweet combo. Best of both worlds! I may have to upgrade my SS Daytona.

Day Date all day...
The Daytona can’t hold a flame to that.
I will only buy one more Rolex since I already have my Daytona.
The next piece will be a Yellow Gold Day Date...

Comparing them is like apples and bowling balls.

DD any day!

I already have a few SS pieces including a 116500 white dial.

Which one would you choose and why? I’m hoping to get some feedback on the wearability/comfort, durability and better value retention wouldn’t hurt. Thanks!

That DD is sweet!!!!

Either way you won’t go wrong.
If I were you I will buy the first one that appears at a Good price. And then hunt for another great price in the other one.
Both watches are amazing and a must have,
Blessings,

On its own, I would pick the Daytona.
The oysterflex is super comfortable and the watch is more versatile: if you dress up, it would look dressy, if you're casual, it just looks real cool.
However, you already have a 116500. so in your case I would pick the DD. Beautiful watch and nice addition to your collection.

Nevermind my previous post, I didn't see the last pages...
Congrats on your choice. Beautiful piece!

The olive dial is sublime. I had the RG/Olive combo.
