Two very nice pieces. I am going to go daytona here because I love that version. There was a time in my life when I would have preferred the AP. Tastes change

One of the most common questions that come up and I've asked it too. Real answer is both or whichever is available at MSRP first but if needing to pick one then stick with Rolex as the safer brand and potential for more down the road.

AP. Not a fan of gold dials or the OF.

Both! Don’t own an AP, but wish I did. The 116519 is sweet for sure! That dial is .... drool!

Both are gorgeous, Daytona with OF or AP 26331ST blue dial.
Daytona is PM but AP bracelet is the best looking. Close call! Either one at msrp (at your AD).

AP is slick.
Daytona is more wearable.

Good point there. I definitely have much more wrist awareness with the AP. Although will say that after almost a year or ownership and fairly regular wear in rotation, it still looks pretty much brand new.

Have you tried throwing the AP on strap (either black or white rubber) for a change of pace in the summer? the AP does have that going for it, bracelet and strap option, vs just the stray on the Daytona.

I didn’t realize they have rubber option for the 38mm. Will look into it!

Hard to argue with that. I own one but wanted to hear opinions at this price point for these 2.

I've had both in RG on straps, I probably warmed slightly more to the Daytona, it had the most Haute feel of any Rolex I've had, the AP was colder.

I don't like 4:30 dates, but AP for sure here.

I like the AP, but only because it has a date!

Though call. 519 is probably my favourite Daytona. Was offered that AP a few years ago. If I could have either tomorrow I'd go AP

Rolex. The AP drives me nuts with different size subdials, offset and misaligned date, no sapphire caseback with non in house movement.

I would take the AP, it’s actually more legible. AP is growing on me over time I think.
