GV Milguass or SS white Daytona

My sixth sense is telling me about facing a dilemma next week...strong possibility of both of these watches will be available.

Had a white Milguass, it didn't sing much. Currently owning a blk SS Daytona so what are my most logical choice?

Buying both is not an option...maybe should flip a coin.

You may consider buying the two and selling one (GV) to pay for the other.

You could end up having paid only $3k for a Daytona SS.

I like the Milgauss, especially in the GV version. If only one however, the Daytona.

Agreed, Karis.

Other than being a speculative transaction, hoping to get a premium on the GV, I'd go for the one that I really wanted - so if you like the Daytona, go for it.

Congrats on the white! Pic's are mandatory when you get it.
