What are your thoughts. Attachment 680736

Danny83 · 16 November 2015, 04:53 AM

No way!

GolfPunk · 16 November 2015, 04:55 AM

I certainly wouldn't...........

Ckci · 16 November 2015, 04:56 AM

I appreciate all of your opinions and opinions on the VC. Thanks.

Ckci · 16 November 2015, 05:04 AM

I was wanting the Daytona but the bezel was so reflective at least with the lighting at the AD's that it was hard for me to read the numbers.

Contemplated the VC, but the short hands, esp the hour hand, no way.

Would anyone choose an AP chrono over the Daytona. I have a new I series AP diver I like a lot but have concerns about reliability of the AP.

DrySub · 16 November 2015, 05:26 AM

That VC is cheap looking. It's probably better on the wrist, but still...

TK-710 · 16 November 2015, 05:35 AM

Im not a Daytona fan so I'm going to be in the very small minority but I say the VC. First that picture doesn't do it justice. Second I don't like the Daytona's busy bezel. Third I like the date on the VC.

Racerdj · 16 November 2015, 05:45 AM

Probably not but I have not seen the VC in person.

capote · 16 November 2015, 05:45 AM

VC Overseas all day, but I would hold off until January.

MitchSteel · 16 November 2015, 05:48 AM

I have.I went for the Black Giloche dial tho.Never looked back.

I wanted a kickass chronograph and done some research.The VC had way more features( antimagnetic case, better water resistance rating, way cooler design, grand date complication which is very useful, the bracelet on the VC is phenomenal,very unique look) These are just some of the reasons I chose the VC OSC over many, many others.
The build quality just oozes class,it's very robust, has a fantastic F Piguet movement, mine runs at +2s/day.
I like unique design of the VC most of all.....besides, it's a holy trinity piece......it's a Vacheron for Christs sake:thumbs up

LauMeg · 16 November 2015, 05:49 AM

Well on the VC, I don't like the hands and the different sizes for the sub dials.
And I'm not sure there is an in house movement for this model.
The Daytona, very well-balanced, with the 4130 movement, one of the best.
So for me the choice would be easy.

Numberjack · 16 November 2015, 05:49 AM

VC all day every day.

Lordofrolex · 16 November 2015, 06:08 AM

Daytona for sure

ncstate1201 · 16 November 2015, 06:12 AM

Daytona for me

asleep · 16 November 2015, 06:15 AM

The Vacheron just doesn't speak to me like the Daytona does.

But you're not buying it for me.

AK797 · 16 November 2015, 06:19 AM

Tough one in SS, as VCO bracelet with MC motif is magnificent but differing sized subdials does bother me. I'd put on both at the same time and go with my heart in the end, no wrong answer here.

In the heartbeat. Different league.

Ckci · 16 November 2015, 06:49 AM

Now things are getting interesting. I like that people are voicing their opposing opinions rather than sticking with the majority up front. Things I definitely like better about the VC are the bezel and bracelet. I maybe blind but I didn't notice the differing sizes on the sundials. I like the date at the top. I Also maybe getting old but I'll use that feature more than the chron feature. I'd never use the tachometer feature so I don't mind loosing that. I wish I could see the VC in person because that would help. Keep up the comments. Thanks. Russ.

Bakasana · 16 November 2015, 07:11 AM

I'm waiting for the day Rolex retros their Daytona look:
1. No more polished parts
2. Insert bezel...
3. Panda dial options (black w/ white sub dials, white w/ blck sub dials) with the SS models
4. But keep the new clasp system for the modern touch

The new generation... C'mon.

GoingPlaces · 16 November 2015, 07:12 AM

VC is a good looking watch, especially in the blue with blue strap, but I would go Daytona all day. Daytona is so iconic at this point, its hard to pass on.

This is a beautiful Daytona but it runs about $1.1M so... In my opinion this is a better bezel than the shiny one Rolex has on the current Daytonas. If they switch back which I bet they do I'll be really interested. I like the size of this bezel too for the Daytona.

crfsocal · 16 November 2015, 07:44 AM

No

AF_Rob · 16 November 2015, 07:47 AM

I'd go VC

tkerrmd · 16 November 2015, 07:56 AM

The VC is an amazing watch and all class for sure.

My personal preference however is the Rolex Daytona

Ckci · 16 November 2015, 08:14 AM

Nice platinum. Nice Bezel.

HL65 · 16 November 2015, 08:17 AM

No not a VC fan...Daytona all the way.
