I voted for BLNR, as it has the two complications I use most, date and GMT. I have no use for the chronograph function on the Daytona.

Currently own BLNR and have been on the waiting list since March for a white Daytona C so I'll vote when I get my Daytona for my feedback, in the meantime I can say the BLNR has been a stellar watch so far with no complaints.

If as an only watch, I'd go BLNR. Time, date, GMT function, good looks...BLNR has it all in one package.

Mind you, I'm on a waiting list for a 116500 too!

I'm not a big fan of the Daytona in its previous guises, but I think the latest version is a really handsome watch.

As for the GMT 2, I prefer the all-black version and find the blue/black bezel not attractive.

If I could only have one, I'd go with the Daytona C. Luckily, I can have more than one.

If getting it to wear (not flip), then the BLNR hands-down. Better-looking and a more useful complication.
