I say ROC. I prefer the bracelet look vs both Daytona and overseas.

I voted AP while I love the Daytona a lot of dial presence is given to the tachymeter scale which, although I time things every day, I never use

I looked at the VC before I bought my AP Diver and it indeed is quite nice. What bothers me most isn't the subdial size variation, it's the the minute hand. It looks way too short. All that printing in the second subdial looks weird too.

Yeah different sized subdials are a deal breaker for me, remind me of fake quartz chronos.

I feel the same way about the oddly placed subdials on the current Daytona.
