Great photos, Steve!

Daytona...

More comfortable on the wrist.
More refined case.
Top resale value.
Less common.

acadianl79 · 5 February 2010, 09:17 AM

DSSD , more metal for your money

Rayfish · 5 February 2010, 03:25 PM

Daytona. Get it now while we're still in a recession and it's available. Get the DSSD later.

More comfortable? Are you sure?
More refined case? What do you mean?
Top resale value - can't disagree with that.
Less common - definately not. Daytonas have beed around for a long time. Deepsea, not even two years.

michael ctk · 5 February 2010, 09:22 PM

DSSD too big for me

SeamasterGMT · 5 February 2010, 09:44 PM

I've always disliked the Daytona - not a fan of chronographs due to cluttered dials.
However, the Daytona has REALLY grown on me over the last 12 months.
If I was going to buy another Rolex, I think it would be a Daytona.

Dr.B - great pics

rhi · 6 February 2010, 12:42 AM

The two watches are so different
You must go with the one that feels right yep thats right the deepsea any day

Atomant · 6 February 2010, 01:26 AM

I'll get a white faced Daytona. Stunning.

Both cars have different specs, handling, functions and of course price.

And,, if you are a Rolex collector >>> get BOTH !!

I think you ment Hummer?
I had a Hummer and have a BMW. funny you compared those. and I think I would chose my M3 over my H2 everytime, well maybe.

I did chose the Daytona, and then I sold it, but yesterday my AD got a ss daytona in again and I think I am going to buy it, lol.. I miss it.
I never got a dssd either, but still want it, but never could pull the trigger on it. but the daytona arrived again and I am ready to pull the trigger on it, hmmm. gues it does speak to me.

Less common?? I have seen a DSSD in every 2nd or 3rd AD I walk past. I have never seen a Daytona in the wild and the only one I have ever seen in an AD I bought it on the spot.

nauticajoe · 15 December 2010, 08:06 AM

The Daytona - hands down!!!

atork23 · 15 December 2010, 08:15 AM

Gotta go with the SS daytona.

wrxsti · 16 December 2010, 06:00 PM

In Vancouver bc I have seen both black and white daytonas at two seperste ad's in town in the display cases! Not rare and tough to find anymore. I would buy a daytona if i loved it not because it is rare or because it is the watch to have.

i own and love the deepsea and it is a keeper for life! No offense to daytona lovers but it does nothing for me even though it is a classic watch.

Deepsea for me!

jedinite · 17 December 2010, 01:41 AM

Dssd

Roly98 · 17 December 2010, 02:00 AM

Definetly the DEEPSEA!

sigma18200 · 19 December 2010, 09:39 PM

Buy both!

DT14 · 20 December 2010, 01:03 AM

Daytona

sea-dweller · 20 December 2010, 03:10 AM

For me, the DSSD is too large for my wrists.

B. Doggy · 20 December 2010, 04:04 AM

Daytona all the way! Mine is coming soon!!

They are 2 completely different watches but if yo can afford it buy both.
I have the DSSD & it gets the most wrist time out of my colection.

tattooedfagin · 20 December 2010, 06:32 AM

Daytona / Black dial for me seeing as i already have the DSSD

Raucky · 20 December 2010, 11:06 AM

SS Daytona for me since I already want a Sub bad enough. I'd want to spread the love around to a different style.

darklord · 20 December 2010, 01:40 PM

Interesting...I am selling my Deepsea and buying a Daytona.

Reason, I have a Big Pilot...and don't need another BIG watch. Daytona is pretty classy and sporty looking IMO>

darklord · 20 December 2010, 01:41 PM

And personally, I find the Deepsea to be the least comfortable of my watches...although the strap is the best I have ever used or seen!

Jannal · 20 December 2010, 02:03 PM

DSSD, since I prefer a watch with a date. The exception of the classic Sub No Date 14060M.

bemik · 20 December 2010, 02:06 PM

Voted Daytona.
Both great watches, but I just cannot resist beautiful chronographs!!
