Daytona for me as well.

I really like the Skydweller, very useful complication, and definitely would take it over any DJ. But in a competition against the Daytona, the Daytona for me would win just about everytime (exceptions might be if I already owned a panda 6263 or WG Daytona).

Had a white Daytona, just never worked for me... But I’m not much of a Chronograph guy either. I think the blue dial SD is beautiful is some pictures, others it’s black, in terms of pure legibility and at a glance reading, the white sky hits the buttons. Guess I’m glad the white is one the ‘least’ desirable unobtainable SS models around. (Tongue firmly in cheek)

Pretty resounding response in favor of the Daytona. I'd have to agree white face Daytona.

Blue sky dweller. It's got far more to offer.

Daytona for me. The Skydweller is nice, but just too large and flashy for my taste. The Daytona is near perfect IMO.

If both watches were readily available and sourced quite easily would you still take the Daytona?
