I've always admired the red letter on the Daytona.

If you guys had to choose, which one do you prefer? first or second?

travisb · 31 January 2015, 04:18 AM

Great shot!

AS1 · 31 January 2015, 04:29 AM

nice, Jason. I would say the first.

jjnd08 · 31 January 2015, 04:31 AM

Very nice!

watchwatcher · 31 January 2015, 04:32 AM

Thank you Sir

I'm glad you like it

Kyle89 · 31 January 2015, 04:52 AM

1st

omx5o · 31 January 2015, 05:14 AM

I like the red letters in the first. But there's something about the second shot that captures the mechanical nature of the hands so I'm going to say that one.

Solo118 · 31 January 2015, 05:18 AM

1st one looks great. Now you are making me bust out my macro lens and match that shot on my Daytona :)

Seaward · 31 January 2015, 05:22 AM

Really nice shots. I like the red Daytona writing, breaks up the dial nicely.

Bakasana · 31 January 2015, 05:42 AM

Is there a running seconds hand on the daytona?

Yes there is

Wingman244 · 31 January 2015, 06:32 AM

I am going to say #2. I like the angle of the shot, #2 shows more of the 3 dimensional nature of the dial, the letters are raised up off the dial. The dial looks flat in #1. I like the color of the Daytona letters in #1, if you could punch it up in #2 that would be great. #1 seems to have a little more depth of field, (actually #1 has a strong band of in-focus area across the entire watch from bezel to bezel which is the best part of #1) I think #2 could be improved with a little more in focus area especially if you caught the upper text, as least part of it in focus. I love the out of focus highlight in the far subdial of #2. Great job in both, both are good shots.

AK797 · 31 January 2015, 08:22 AM

First really pops and lifts the pic.

locutus49 · 31 January 2015, 08:39 AM

The first one shows the red letters to advantage. Gorgeous daytona (that is redundant, I know).

SALTY · 31 January 2015, 08:58 AM

Your photography exudes the Daytona - and vis versa.

sea-dweller · 31 January 2015, 09:04 AM
