Daytona, without a second thought.

Sorry that I can not help you with this dilema. Two very different watches. What do you like:

This o this?

kultschar · 12 April 2013, 07:50 AM

Wanted to like the Daytona, underwhelmed when finally tried it on. The Deepsea was instant love and replaced my Sub-C LN

7S26 · 12 April 2013, 07:52 AM

Daytona...

......... DSSD...

JP(Canada) · 12 April 2013, 08:13 AM

I've been thinking about the same thing. It's a really tough choice for all the same reasons. I'm thinking I may need to buy both, but not sure on what order and how to justify that kind of money spending.

bscepter · 12 April 2013, 08:14 AM

plus you've already got a rolex dive watch there. and a couple more SS black-faced tool rolexes.

Watchdog · 12 April 2013, 08:17 AM

TT Daytona or Deep Sea.

Duc5150 · 12 April 2013, 08:19 AM

DSSD is great watch but looks like you've got your bases pretty well covered in "tool dive watch" category.....I'd say go with Daytona to add a little sporty elegance to your collection + you say you've always wanted one???.....Daytona is the one I would go with......my $.02

You can a chrono in that mix! Definitely the Daytona.

Good luck!

AK797 · 12 April 2013, 08:24 AM

The ss Dayt does wear small for a modern mens chrono. The DSSD becasue of the smaller dial due to the inner ring doesnt wear large on the wrist, like a 43mm, but its the thickness and top heavyness on thin bracelet that you have to come to terms with.

As for will large watches stay with us? I think yes as the market is driven by new money from the East, and as new money always does, will want to display their wealth.

JilzVT · 12 April 2013, 08:44 AM

The Deep Sea is the best every day watch ever made IMO.

Deep Sea all day.

AnnemarieGirl · 12 April 2013, 08:50 AM

Deep Sea for Annemarie.

That's my experience as well. Perhaps at initial glance it may have felt small, but after you wear it a bit the size definitely does seem to change and it's a perfect fit.

s14roller · 12 April 2013, 09:36 AM

Easy. Daytona.

You want a bigger watch? Look at Panerai, AP, etc.

drjfc62 · 12 April 2013, 11:29 AM

Opinions seem about even, as of course tastes vary. I like the size and heft of the DSSD, and like some others, was underwhelmed by the look of the Daytona when I tried one on. That said, if the Daytona is what you've been wanting, go for it. Don't grab something else because others like it (i.e., it's trendy). Good luck with your decision.

mcorliss · 12 April 2013, 11:37 AM

Deep Sea!

Royalex · 12 April 2013, 01:29 PM

Deep sea, it's got date

Really nice classic look about it! Will the oversized trend continue? What do you guys think? Thanks,

Both are great watches that appeal to different people for different reasons.

In your case though, are you really deliberating over one which you feel satisfies a "trend" against one which you feel has a "really nice classic look" and that you "have always wanted" ??????

If so, I think the answer is spelled out.

Good luck whichever way you go.

WOW great collection! Try checking out the Green Submariner. It is a beautiful watch. I love wearing mine.

The Daytona is a beautiful watch but it wears too small for me. I yearned for one all of my life, but sold mine after less than a year. Depending on your frame you may get away with wearing a Daytona. But let me just say, if you are trying it on and it feels too small now, that feeling will continue to gnaw at you after you buy it.

DreambreaX · 12 April 2013, 03:33 PM

keep the money to buy yachtmaster 2 alll gold. is the best of rolex watch.
