I think a Daytona is about as sporty as Rolex gets, and TT is more of a dressy look. So for me, it's not a great combo. But if it works for you, you're lucky, as it's a Daytona you can get without all the games and bs.

Beautiful if you don’t mind me saying!

I am not sure if TT Daytona is the “best” version... but I do want one every time i see one... imo its one of the best value Piece in the line up.

I owned both, I am not sure I agree with the two tone. The contrast of gold on silver really stands out more than the brushed SS against the polished SS surface. More balanced? The dial and subdial layouts are similar on all of them no?

I never thought I could wear a TT GMT, but after seeing one in person...

If they put ceramic bezels on those, they'll be just as popular as the Bluesy and CHNR.

Two tones have been back for several years. Many brands have "rediscovered" them as they become more popular.

More understated and balanced than the all pm or ss versions with better dial options.

I wholeheartedly agree. If the watch were readable to me that's the model I'd own, but the stick dial is illegible at a glance.

Those are so tacky, they look like Costco Invictas.

RoscoPico · 20 July 2020, 02:12 AM

i've always loved two tone in general.

Bobby T · 20 July 2020, 04:37 AM

How about this!!!

Watchgeek5000 · 20 July 2020, 06:15 AM

Two tone are popular because there are so many available right now. SS will always be the one to have.

ras47 · 20 July 2020, 06:30 AM

Here's another unpopular opinion 'round these parts: I prefer the Omega Speedmaster over the Daytona. The 38.5mm size is just too small for me and the sub-dials are not marked well enough to be truly useful. The Daytona is a beautiful watch, especially with the white face/black bezel, but its just not for me. One more for you guys, hun?

slimboy1974 · 20 July 2020, 06:35 AM

I absolutely love mine feel like a million dollars when wearing it

TT rose gold with a grey/dark grey dial would be great

Now that would be interesting. Maybe with chocolate dial, sunburst dial and ivory dial. Would look amazing!

Put the lighter down and step away from the bong.

subprimero · 20 July 2020, 11:09 AM

I like TT, but stainless is my favorite

amanbra · 20 July 2020, 11:23 AM

I have a TT Daytona, i got it because I love Chronos but I have a smaller wrist so not many out there fit me. I also refuse to pay massive markups. It's a very nice watch and as a slot in my rotation particularly on the weekends.

As a owner I have to say I don't think it's the best Daytona... I'd still take the SS any day if offered but there is simply zero chance I'm paying current grey market value for them.

kieselguhr · 20 July 2020, 11:40 AM

Agreed. TT White dial is my favourite
