That looks so nice.

But I would still get the SS Daytona no questions asked.

IMHO, the Daytona is a beautiful watch but it's a bit small @ 39mmThe DJ II is much bigger and really stands out. If ever Rolex releases a 42 or 44mm Daytona, I am more than happy to swap or sell my Rolex just to get one..

Does anyone know or have pics on how the DJ II Bezel wears? Since it is gold is it easier to scratch and harder to fix?

New smooth bezel is very appealing.

100% agree. Love the smooth bezel over the fluted. Would be nice if they came out with a smooth bezel for the non Platinum DD II.

Does anyone know the exact size of the head of the Daytona? I know they say 40mm but it looks small on my wrist.
