I second this. Especially with Zenith in general.

Just got the Zenith and 2 very different watches. They don't even feel the same. I enjoy both.

Can you help elaborate what the differences are and if you could only keep one, which would you choose and why? Just curious on your take.

It’s a chronograph from the manufacture that wrote the book on modern coronagraphs (and previously powered the Daytona).

I would rank Zenith right alongside JLC, GP and maybe GO. In terms of value, it far outweighs the Daytona, IMO. But, it’s not a Daytona…

If I walked into a store and knew nothing about Rolex/Zenith Id prob choose the Zenith. It’s more interesting esp the 1/10second chronograph, display back etc. Its very comfortable and I like the rubber strap. Very light and comfy. But obviously now of you were offered both at retail the Daytona is a no brainer.
