Interesting results so far...
WG Daytona, Sub, and GMTII are the top vote-getters by far. Frankly, a little surprised there isn't more love for the WG DD. I figured it would have been a stronger contender amongst the TRF crowd.

Based on your current watch sized, I think the Daytona would fit you better...not to mention its a stunner!!

That certainly seems to be the direction a lot of people are trending... and I don't blame them based on those pics.

Great pic, Roger! Mind my asking, what size is your wrist?

I would choose the RO, But the ss blue Daytona pictured above is just stunning. Size and wearability would be a major factor for me. The DD 40 would be my 3rd choice of the watches you have listed.

I voted the Submariner but the Daytona 116509 is also going to be a cool pick.

I know this picture is of a rose gold watch and you are looking for WG or SS, but I know this watch comes in SS (not sure about WG). For me, this is the best looking blue dial on the market.

Nice to see some love for the RO. Maybe not as robust as the Rolex models, but it’s got killer style.

Big fan of the Overseas. Tried one on while on a recent vacation and the blue dial is outstanding. Only catch is the size, as it sat a little larger than what I am used to. Not terrible but that was what kept it off the list here.

Daytona 509 will probably be one of the best modern day Daytona ever released. That WG bezel and the blue dial is beautiful

I have two blue dial watches that are both beautiful in their own ways.

Both are excellent. Does one get more wear than the other?

The Daytona is the clear favorite amongst the TRF crowd, but these two are neck and neck for second place.

WG DD with the blue dial. A very elegant and wearable watch.

Yeh! I tried one on & it's just to big for me.
As for the OP, I can't recommend the Smurf enough. It rocks.
