Hi all

Straight forward:
Currently i have:
1) 116610LN
2) 116710
3) PAM 372

I am planning for my 4th purchase to mark the 35th year old i am hitting next year!

Choices ( all S/S)
1) AP 15400 Black
2) YM2
3) Daytona

I am more to the AP side as i already have 2 rollies but i am still thinking..

I am also considering that all of my watches are stainless steel. One other option is maybe i can flip the GMT and top up for the rose gold Daytona but it seems a bit stretched ( GMT is AN series, BNIB stickers all intact, 5 years warranty date but unnamed)

What are your thoughts?

Hairdude1 · 22 October 2015, 02:55 PM

Go AP!

DeeTee · 22 October 2015, 03:06 PM

I don't see a need to have the GMT and Sub with only a three watch collection. All three of your potential choice sound great. Maybe trade one, and get the fourth if your budget allows.

luvsub · 22 October 2015, 03:31 PM

Daytona

Wolfgang427 · 22 October 2015, 03:38 PM

AP........

scombs263 · 22 October 2015, 04:25 PM

BLNR or AP..........

zama · 22 October 2015, 06:18 PM

Surprised the AP is winning on TRF, I liked mine, but it does not have as much variety as a Daytona for mine. other option would be flip the GMT for a WG Pepsi GMT

Cru Jones · 22 October 2015, 06:48 PM

1st choice: flip the GMT for RG daytona

2nd choice (really close with 1st): 15400

good luck!

Same here.

I also like the idea of flipping the 116710 towards a WG BLRO if that was a consideration.

1William · 22 October 2015, 08:48 PM

A RG Daytona would be very strong.

soilwork · 22 October 2015, 08:52 PM

12 AP and 12 Daytona as of now!!

Not keen on the WG BLRO but I don't mind a smurf if a good pre own piec comes along haha! But the 116610LN is so easy as a daily beater and hard to give up...

Wifey loves the RG Daytona but her thoughts will be it will be hard to match and wear with my flip flop t shirt style..

She is leaning towards the 15400 as well..

Racerdj · 22 October 2015, 08:56 PM

My choice, the Daytona but your opinion is the most important.

nick c · 22 October 2015, 08:58 PM

Daytona for sure

beshannon · 22 October 2015, 09:15 PM

Since you have "rollies" perhaps you should trying buying a Rolex watch.

RG Daytona or indeed RG AP can be worn very casually as I did all the time with mine. Don't worry about it, just go for what you love and makes you smile the most at this level.

soilwork · 22 October 2015, 10:28 PM

Thanks for all the feedback! Sorry if my rollies sounds wrong or something. I can't find the edit to amend the post :(

I think I will just do the usual which is try them all and see how it sings to me :)

Can you guess what I voted for?

jjnd08 · 22 October 2015, 10:43 PM

Easy, AP.

anothernewphone · 22 October 2015, 11:51 PM

My thoughts were a toss-up between the 15400 and the 116520 - I voted Daytona because that's what I went with myself. I still love the idea of the RO, but I've never handled one personally yet.

superbry · 23 October 2015, 03:19 AM

Ap

Gerardus · 23 October 2015, 04:30 AM

Nycturbovr6 · 23 October 2015, 05:09 AM

mitchellb2005 · 23 October 2015, 06:35 AM
