For me, these two deliver the best 1-2 punch because:
-GMT for daily wear and travel needs
-Daytona for daily wear and dress ocassions
-both rugged and water proof
-both super comfortable
-both classics that will last a lifetime

What’s your best 1-2 punch, if you could only have two?







(PS if I needed a trio collection I would add my SD4K)

Wow, I own the BLRO and I hope to own a Daytona SS one day too. Your trio is amazing. My third watch would be a Patek Calatrava, probably the 5196-J.

I like the blue dial a lot

which one do you wear more or gravitate too?
I bought the rhodium version 3 weeks ago, I loved so much that I got the blue one 2 days ago. But the blue is now my favorite

Similar to yours, except I couldn’t wait for the ceramic Pepsi. I snagged a 16710 with jubilee and other two bezels as well :)

I don't really need a "dress" watch as I wear jeans to work 95% of the time

Conversion on modern reference with OEM dial and hands, totally okay with that. Omega guys seem to embrace mods like Seiko guys.
