Hi! Welcome. If resale value is important to you then you might consider a 16520 SS Daytona.

Agree with you, have been reading alot on the TRF and found SS resale is good.

First i think i should say i liked TT look awesome on my hand than SS

I will going to India and SS is not at all appreciated. so decided on TT. Also finally i think i will ever resell it

thanks again for suggestion. i will give both a try again tomorrow, AD is just half a mile to my house

You can come to southern cal and visit a place called Tick Tock in Little Saigon. My brother in law got his stainless steel Sub black dial there for about 1500 off retail. I got my Datejust in 2007 and my Blue dial two tone Sub last week from Ben Bridge. Both times the sales rep worked with me.

Is the rehaut engraving important to you? If not, buy an older serial
116523 in good condition. I've seen them for as little as $8k.

You do not want to pay anything close to retail on a TT Daytona, check out Davidsw and other trusteds.
