Both fantastic, I have had both.

1 is most legible. The other not so much.

Value wise I would choose Daytona.

It’s nice to add a Patek to your collection.

5167 for me having had both and the Rolex went on to my friends collection. 5167 is a great sports watch if you accept the bezel will be scratched beyond words but fixed every few years when serviced so you can start again. That’s my approach and it’s my favorite watch by far.

I have an aquanaut on my wrist, and I still say get the Daytona. Or keep the YG DD, sell the other two, and get both the Daytona and 5167 (or preferably the 5164 to replace the GMT) That would be an excellent 3-watch collection.

Adding a 5167 to your current collection would be perfect.

Ditto.
