Daytona RG 116505 vs AP ROO RG 26470OR -- According to AP Fans

Been posting this on Rolex forum, and would like to know what you Guys are thinking as AP Fans here.....


Taking my wife for a walk last night, we passed by a trusted pre owned watch shop and she saw this beautiful pre owned AP ROO Chrono RG 26470 OR....

Suddenly she said that she prefers to trade my RG Daytona 116505 with the RG AP.....what do you think guys? The seller ask about USD 8k out of pocket (RG Daytona is USD 28.2k, AP ROO RG is USD 36k) if I were to trade my Daytona with the AP.....

To be honest, AP RG is such gorgeous watch....But my RG Daytona also a beautiful watch....


Now it comes down to AP vs Rolex....which one should I pick.....? And what do you think in term of future resale value between RG Daytona and RG ROO Chrono?


Regards,

Looks like you already have a SS ROO, I would keep the Daytona.

I would get the current incarnation of the RG ROO (https://www.audemarspiguet.com/en/wa....OO.A125CR.01/)

In this rare instance I’m keeping the Daytona all day here. Looks phenomenal and the AP is nice but I don’t like how the 42s wear to be honest.

Unusually, in a AP v Rolex debate, I agree...

I would still go for the RG ROO, there's nothing quite like it with that chunk of luxurious metal. Daytona would need a CE bezel first.
