No question about it...definitely do it.

landroverking · 9 February 2014, 04:29 AM

I don't like trading two for one but for a Daytona I would.

lig · 9 February 2014, 04:40 AM

I'd do it without a hint of hesitation.

GolfPunk · 9 February 2014, 06:27 AM

Thanks, I'm not big into the zenith purely because it isn't an in house rolex movement, but I love the white dial zenith with black sub dials

Wing-Co · 9 February 2014, 06:31 AM

Well I have a Navitimer, DSSD and YMII and I thought about a Daytona SS, but when I tired it on it didn't have much weight and the bezel did not appeal. It didn't look that good next to the Navitimer - personal view as the Navitimer is highly polished and lots of detail in dial and bezel. However, the choc' brown one with leather strap would be different.

Get the Daytona and Bob's your uncle!

SixPak · 9 February 2014, 06:57 AM

In a blink of an eye I would do this trade. The Monbrillant Datora and PAM 050 just don't do it for me. Now there's nothing much to write home about the SS Daytona either but it's still is a highly desirable watch compared to the other two.

Trading two great watches for one fantastic watch is ALWAYS the right choice. You only wear one at a time, keeping a bunch of unworn watches collecting dust doesn't make sense to me.

Go For Dayto Cosmo

superdog · 9 February 2014, 08:00 AM

For certain

Thanks for your replies, I WILL be posting a Daytona wrist shot in due course.

justinrose17 · 9 February 2014, 08:48 AM

That's a definite

I sold my panerai for £3000 today so I now have £6000 cash awaiting a daytona purchase 😉

Tony-GB · 12 February 2014, 06:31 AM

Sounds like you missed the Daytona, so you've done the right thing.

couturegirl · 12 February 2014, 08:04 AM

Do it.

gazp · 12 February 2014, 08:31 AM

Do it Gaz , and enjoy your new watch in good health mate 👍

You have made the right decision. You must be thrilled to have unloaded that panerai. Congrats!

theseira · 12 February 2014, 11:17 AM

Go for it! I love the daytonas as well.

Lew Archer · 12 February 2014, 01:09 PM

I love the Daytona...and bought the white dial SS model last year. As you say, an outstanding watch.

I prefer to avoid flipping watches...but sometimes it's necessary. I'm leery, though, of flipper's remorse...which is often expressed here on TRF!

If there is no urgency, may I suggest you wear your Breitling for a week, everyday. Then do the same with the Panerai. At the end of those two weeks, look them over and think about it. Make sure they truly no longer hold your interest. They are both fine and distinctive pieces. If you're going to sell them, just make sure you're over them!

If you have any reservations (and the fact that you asked our opinion suggests there may be), DON'T do it, at least not now. There are other ways to get into a Daytona again...

zeuloa · 12 February 2014, 01:39 PM

Good choice...
