I think i've got the box checked for the perfect pair of chronographs- black ceramic Daytona and a Speedmaster with the Mitsukoshi mod.

Although, after a week of constant wear, i certainly think the Daytona will end up being the go-to...

Edit: the bracelet is an addition. The watch originally came on a blue strap.

Nice foursome.

I had the Speedy Tuesday for a quick second and was looking at an unclaimed 60th Speedy down in Atlanta last week. Awesome pair in their own right.
