Black Dial TT Daytona or Black Dial Tudor Heritage....

"Anyway, I am on the fence about this. My next purchase (hopefully SOON, need to sell a watch first) will be either a pre-loved TT black dial Daytona or a black dial Tudor Heritage. The Daytona is of course a beautiful watch, and a ROLEX. I'm not worried about the relative non-popularity of the TT, I wear stuff I like, not others. I love the look of the Tudor (I'm quite the baseball fan), and I also like the fact that it's a bit larger, 42 mm., than my Sub-C. Resale advice not withstanding -- I suspect the Daytona would be much easier to sell -- just curious on the thoughts of you re. my quandry. I know I know, which one makes your heart sing the most....

I'm torn I tell ya, torn.

If anyone has both, a side by side photo would sure be cool to see.

Thanks, Chuck"

I already have aTT Daytona(Zenith) So I voted for the Heritage.

Daytona.....

Daytona....and I'll spare you the reasons behind my vote...my guess is that you probably know them!

I have a SS Daytona White Dial, and I wouldn't mind getting a Tudor Black Dial in the Prince, Tiger, or Big Block versions.

However I personally don't like the look of the Tudor Heritage version.

Not a fan of the modern Daytona especially the limited option two dial S.Steel so I would choose the Tudor Heritage.

esm · 28 November 2010, 10:51 PM

Daytona for me.

As for not a fan of the modern Daytona... It I'd abit of a catch 22 issue IMO. It is either you are at the right place and right time to be able to acquire a vintage Daytona (for cheap/within your budget/inherited etc) or the next best thing is the modern Daytona with the in house movement.

For me, it was the 2nd option, hence I have a 116520.

Honestly, I'd have a 3570.50 over the Tudor Heritage Chrono.

No date no deal, the Tudor for me.

Hey Tim,
Good to see you one here. I voted for the TT Daytona. They are a great looking reference.

Steelfish · 29 November 2010, 08:55 AM

TT Daytona for me, sporty yet elegant.

vukotab · 29 November 2010, 12:19 PM

I`m gonna be in minority here, but my choice would be Tudor in a heartbeat, simply because of design that recalls some distant, better times...

Latrodectus · 29 November 2010, 12:27 PM

I just like the Daytona better and I could not see the small date on the Tudor anyway

DT14 · 30 November 2010, 04:32 AM
