Curiosity what members would choose,
I think they both are classics and uniquely special with the splash of color they provide, given a choice which would you choose?

I figured the AP sub forum would get the most balanced response as (i think its safe to say) we all know what a Daytona is, but i think its a cultivated appreciation that brings us to the Jumbo.

Royal Oak Extra thin rose gold 15202OR, 40th Anniversary!

subtona · 19 November 2013, 11:06 AM

Or this

Daytona Platinum 116506, 50th Anniversary!

Andrés G · 19 November 2013, 11:08 AM

A Jumbo without a doubt.

Soly20 · 19 November 2013, 11:09 AM

I'd have to go with the 15202. Not a big fan of the Daytona in general, although this one in particular looks very nice.

h999r · 19 November 2013, 11:11 AM

AP for a different class.

FeelingTheBlues · 19 November 2013, 11:15 AM

AP for me, the Daytona is beautiful but it doesn't beat the RO in my book.

subtona · 19 November 2013, 11:24 AM

Interesting start in the polls:)

Jorssen · 19 November 2013, 11:33 AM

I'd take the jumbo over the daytona anytime

melons · 19 November 2013, 11:56 AM

Jumbo, but in steel.

B. Doggy · 19 November 2013, 12:52 PM

AP for sure. Haven't seen that blue dial in person on the Daytona, but can't say it's for me from what I've seen.

CoachRolexRyan · 19 November 2013, 12:55 PM

Not a chrono fan, but I'd make an exception in this case! That Daytona is awfully special and hard to beat.

kilyung · 19 November 2013, 12:58 PM

For the purposes of this poll I'd say AP. However in reality, if I can afford the platinum Daytona, I'd shortly thereafter get the RO and vice versa.

s14roller · 19 November 2013, 01:07 PM

I have the SS Daytona and SS 15400 so love both. Between the 2 choices, RG jumbo.

Hairdude1 · 19 November 2013, 02:04 PM

RG Jumbo gets my vote

redsubby · 19 November 2013, 02:46 PM

Platinum Daytona in half a heartbeat

Lamkyle · 19 November 2013, 03:19 PM

It's the jumbo, and it's RG, no brainier for me

drhr · 19 November 2013, 04:43 PM

Jumbo for sure!

bayerische · 19 November 2013, 06:11 PM

AP for my every day of the week!

travisb · 19 November 2013, 06:52 PM

Jumbo without blinking an eye.
Yes the Daytona is one sweet watch, but the 15202 checks all the boxes for me.

Watchcentric · 19 November 2013, 06:55 PM

Daytona!

I'm a fan of the RO but not in yellow gold. It's after all a sports watch...

This Daytona looks like a steel watch (as it was meant to be) and the dial makes it so beautiful!

Ristretto · 19 November 2013, 07:10 PM

Jumbo in Steel.

Cru Jones · 19 November 2013, 08:25 PM

platy daytona + 15202 in steel.

AK797 · 19 November 2013, 09:48 PM

Nothing quite like AP gold, esp the gold octagonal bezel.

koz123 · 20 November 2013, 12:40 AM

Ap!

subtona · 20 November 2013, 12:54 AM

Holding at ~2 to 1

What about in rose gold like we are discussing?

These two would certainly complement each other well

As above

RG Jumbo. Such a grail. First and only time I ever saw one was on Valentino walking out of Barneys NYC into a Maybach. Forget the glitz and glam, looked SICK!

subtona · 2 February 2014, 04:26 AM
