Should have posted a poll... for me it’s the 116508 all the way but it really comes down to YOU’RE personal preference. Best of luck.

Tough call. How much do you like having a date? Nothing like the Daytona case but do like having a date.

I love the sub as not having a date is a bit of a bummer! Daytona is a bit more bling IMHO.

Good Luck & enjoy it in good health!

Sub. You have a date function to go with all that gold.

Sub. I feel like the Daytona looks a bit dated without the ceramic bezel.

You want a chrono or a diver?

I like the chrono, ergo Daytona.

Sub by a mile for me
I've owned the Daytona and pre ceramic sub before and not even close, the Daytona looks so dated with the gold bezel and also I find it too small

But Sub for me, as I find the Daytona too small and am not a chrono fan.

Got mixed up here about what models were were comparing. Now that I'm clear, I say go with the sub. I'm not a fan of the new white text or size but I think it's a nicer watch.

Does anyone think that the new Blue Solid Gold Sub will sell for a premium ?
