Daytona gets me vote!

stlinking · 4 September 2018, 09:17 AM

Thank you everyone for sharing your thoughts and ideas!!!
Functionality is not a priority in my purchase as I already have a White Daytona C, Hulk and Batman which serves my daily needs.

I envisage getting both the Black Daytona C and SS BLRO to add to my collection eventually provided I can afford the premiums or my AD gets me one.

I agree with most, Daytona value is likely to continue up north and Pepsi current premium is unsustainable and purely from a value perspective, Daytona might make more sense!

Only reason I can think why Pepsi is commanding insane premiums is because I saw a report saying the wait list is 15 years which probably will be discontinued by then.

Daytona all day and I own both. Just a more comfortable and better looking watch frankly

Afaik, Daytona have been and will always be the Grail of all Rolex for ages.

But trends might change. What do I know

jezza17 · 4 September 2018, 10:38 PM

Pepsi

904VT · 4 September 2018, 10:52 PM

Daytona if you're going secondary. The SS BLRO price is severely out of synch compared to other GMT Masters (except those whacky 3186 5 digits some overpay for). The Daytona is priced high, but a SS Daytona is always a SS Daytona. There are many other GMT LNs, BLNRs, and other SS variations in plenty.

Wllnv19 · 4 September 2018, 11:26 PM

Long term I think the Daytona will keep its value for longer, with that said I prefer the BLRO...so that would be my choice, personally I would buy what I like and not worry about what happens in the future.

brucethemanlee · 4 September 2018, 11:26 PM

I’d go Daytona

Don't let a bunch of internet strangers tell you how you SHOULD spend your money.

watchwatcher · 4 September 2018, 11:53 PM

You've just got to figure out if you're a chrono guy or a GMT guy.

yannis · 5 September 2018, 12:12 AM

I say GMT.

AK797 · 5 September 2018, 12:59 AM

D500 for me, resale will probably be more consistent than BLRO too.

mikester · 5 September 2018, 02:44 AM

White Daytona for me. Both are beautiful and you can't go wrong with either.

Agreed,

MKLM · 3 October 2018, 07:33 AM

I’m in the same boat. These two are on the top of my list but can only add one. AD gave me the choice so I said white Daytona. To be fair I already own the original ceramic GMT and never had a Daytona but that Pepsi is sweet!

NeoAnderson · 3 October 2018, 08:02 AM

SS Pepsi

"pop"

2nastie · 3 October 2018, 08:06 AM

Between the two I think the Daytona C is a better choice.

Value wise (pending something dramatic) the BLRO should come down a bit. I think we are witnessing that a bit right now.

SimplyWatches · 3 October 2018, 08:08 AM

I would say Pepsi but that's just my opinion

exador · 3 October 2018, 08:31 AM

If you buy the BLRO now the Scalpers win.

Gotgolf52 · 3 October 2018, 08:38 AM

I would pick DAYTONA.

I do not think that he will really listen to us, since he is going to drop 20 k for a grey market watch. IMO, it is a wasting on money. Go TT Daytona, AD.

It won't matter, after you get one, you'll probably get the other eventually.
