Hi Everyone,

I have two choices, black 15710st or white 116500ln.

which one would you choose and why ?

I have 116613LB and breitling avenger ii chronograph now.

Thank you so much.

I'd go with the AP as you have a Rolex.

+1 plus AP is a big upgrade from a Rolex IMO

buy the new daytona... sell the daytona for 1-2K profit and then buy the diver

Yamazaki · 6 November 2016, 05:18 AM

I would sell the breitling and get both

HL65 · 6 November 2016, 05:26 AM

Get the 116500 - at least I would. Never cared for the Diver myself and the Daytona a much better looking watch IMHO with much higher demand. So if you can get one from AD for retail it's a no brainer.

texex91 · 6 November 2016, 05:43 AM

I can appreciate the 116500, but it's still too small for me.

Diver is great, but 44mm ROO might be a better move.

DCheeta · 6 November 2016, 02:18 PM

Those two watches wear completely differently. One is sleek and slim, the other is big and blocky. I love them both, but I think you need to decide what type of watch you'd like to have.

TOP1127 · 6 November 2016, 05:31 PM

Thanks everyone's feedback
116500LN is NTD 495,000 in Taiwan
AP diver's tag price is NTD 608,000 in Taiwan, but I'm not sure how much discount I can get.
The only one thing I am concerned is that I'm afraid of scratching the diver...cos it's not ceramic

kentheevil · 7 November 2016, 08:48 PM

trade the Breitling for some more cash and get a Bubble bee Roo or diver problem solve

lapince · 7 November 2016, 09:29 PM

If you can make the stretch to a ceramic or FC diver by selling the Breitling, don't hesitate

Grab a FC or CE diver... Only the bezel is CE on the Daytona, so, the rest of it will scratch too.

psv · 8 November 2016, 12:00 AM

Apples or oranges. They are two different to compare really.

TOP1127 · 8 November 2016, 02:16 AM

Thank everyone's advices again:)
So most of people think that
Keep two watch ?
One is 116613lb and add a new member - AP ?
In fact, I try lots of AP models ...
They r all beautiful ...

Agreed. If you can find a CE Diver get that. It's the best of all worlds.

psv · 8 November 2016, 06:15 AM

After seeing your wrist size I think the Daytona would be a better choice.

Manofsteelpt · 8 November 2016, 06:18 AM

The APs look a lil big, maybe look at a ROC, 15400 or the 15202.

Agreed

Defiancekofb · 8 November 2016, 09:35 AM

If you can get the Daytona-C at retail cost, flip it for a profit, then buy the AP.

texex91 · 8 November 2016, 09:38 AM

44 AP is too large and 42 is as well after seeing your pics.

What size is your wrist?

They are all way too big on you...Get the Daytona and call it a day if you can!

locutus49 · 8 November 2016, 09:48 AM

Your wrist is like mine. AP is too big, go Daytona.

Lordofrolex · 8 November 2016, 09:55 AM

Due to your first size the daytona may look better.

AK797 · 8 November 2016, 10:01 AM

Agree with the guys, D500 for you.

Manofsteelpt · 8 November 2016, 11:02 AM

Paul, I thought you talked to John about retiring that Dayotna pic? Lol

It didn't work :-)

droptopman · 8 November 2016, 11:20 AM

Daytona for your wrist size or if you really want an AP look at the 15202.

jschmidtdmd · 8 November 2016, 12:18 PM

As much as I want to say GO AP, you should 100% go Daytona.

It will still wear very large on your wrist IMO and will be a better fit than the APs.

JPS

DCheeta · 8 November 2016, 02:33 PM

Ooh, yeah...for some reason I didn't see the pics the first time. Get the Daytona.
