I think that the Chrono AP is the only AP I lust after.

Had both at one time. The ROC is still in my collection so AP for me.

If the Daytona was on bracelet then that. Otherwise RO in this case.

That is a very tough call. Personally I took the 519LN first because of the 'value', roughly same price but you get gold!

Then after my penny pinching value inclinations were sated, I felt free enough to get the ROC. The ROC gets worn way more despite the urge to baby it.

Daytona, depending on wrist size. If you've got really large wrists then an AP might be more appropriate. This one looks like a smaller AP.

I thought the picture shown was 41mm 26331st not 26315st.

38mm 26315st has white dial with blue sub-dials but 41mm has white dial with black sub-dials.

Its the 26315. The dials can look very dark in some lighting and blue in sunlight. Its very dynamic!

Love the ROC, but I choose 519LN. I was between these 2 when I purchased my 519LN.

AP by miles. not a close contest, imo.

It would be a closer contest if that Daytona had full bracelet. but even then, I'd pick AP.

Daytona for me but depends on your collection. I'm going to guess you have some other killer pieces......

Can we please stop using "chrono" to exclusively mean chronograph? The term could just as easily refer to chronometers.

Thank you.
