I'd have to say that I'd go for the gold daytona.

I would have to agree. The Everose Daytona is unreal. It is truly one of the most gorgeous watches made.

I would choose the GMT, however that's my personal choice based on my preferences. Obtaining a vintage gold Rolex shouldn't be difficult, whether it be from an estate jeweler, or somewhere online. However seeing some of these pictures of the Dayton with a leather strap, made my heart stop for moment.

Buy whichever you like best!

I vote gold GMT as well. Being the "vintage WIS" that I am, I would be on the hunt for a pristine 14k yellow gold GMT. 14K wears much better than 18K from the durability and bracelet stretch standpoint and looks just fine to my eye and the YG/black dial and bezel is a nice contrast of colors.

Not a GMT fan, so Either Sub or Daytona. Your choice though really.

Of your choices, I would go for the Daytona. However, if I was going to spend that much on a watch, I'd be looking more towards a Patek or JLC.

Sorry for the terrible pictures. It is good thing I don't have to feed myself by taking pictures because I would be very skinny!
