With your current collection the Daytona would be my pick too... I am just not much of a TT guy although I have had a few

It's not because of any dislike for TT models but the Daytona is a sport watch and a dress watch more so than other Rolex "sport models" and certainly more so than the DJ serves both functions.

However, my thoughts in this regard pale by comparison to the litmus test of which one speaks to you.

Yes Sandra, you are right, 2 tone green Roman DJ ll is a gorgepus watch but the Daytona fits me a little bit better b/c of my 6 in wrist. It is a very hard decision

I measured the case size of the Daytona, it was only 38mm not 40mm Am I correct? No wonder it looks much smaller than the DJll

DJ II is a most have, if your looking to, reward your children in the future. The daytona is nice, but in like a 10 year period, it will drop to, maybe half the value. Trust me on this one!
