For me, it would depend on what's currently in the collection, and what you are looking for in that particular piece. They are both very different from each other.

Hard to say....
Do you already have AP's and Rolex's? Any solid gold models in your setup? If not I think I would go DD.

As others stated, it would depend on your collection mostly but in between those two I'd be tempted to choose the Rolex for size and metal purposes.

How do you wear it? What type of business do you work in?
If in a suit everyday, get the DD. If in jeans everyday, get the AP... There's lots of room in the middle, and many other variables... |
