I'm torn on the Daytona. When I see them on someone else's wrist (unless a huge wrist) the size looks great, not small at all. When I try it on it feels small to me and I get cold feet, and I have an average wrist. As a recent Z-blue Milgauss owner, I love the watch and the size is just perfect for me.

Daytona.

I have the white Milgauss, a SD4K, and a GMT Master 16700. The Milgauss and the SD4K wear very similarly, whereas the GMT Master wears very lightly on the wrist.

I tried on a Milgauss yesterday. I was surprised at how big and heavy it felt on my wrist. I didn't really see that in pictures or even looking at in the display for some reason. I have been wearing a 16610 daily for 25 years and the Mil had a more noticeable presence in every way.

Nice choice! That's the TT I would get if I didn't go SS.

Thanks, I'll post pics as soon as it arrives. I also have decided to trade my GV for a white dial Millgauss, I like the green crystal but the one I had was scratched pretty good and needed a new sapphire, so instead I just traded back for the white dial. 2 in comings this week, hell of a way to start 2016! :)

Well today I got the Daytona, and the white Milgauss. TBH I thought the Daytona would have been smaller, it's the perfect size for a dress watch for me, however I plan to wear it casually.

I find the Daytona much more comfy than the milgauss. I no longer have the milgauss, absolutely NEED a daytona

I love my Milgauss, although I'm glad I have the Daytona as well, there is definitely room for both!

I think the Daytona will wear just a tad smaller; but here's the thing...you're not going to be wearing them at the same time to compare.

Worry more about which one you prefer aesthetically and go from there. Good luck,

Well, I didn't end up holding onto the Daytona for more than a couple days, I wasn't too keen on the older style bracelet, also I've had TT pieces in the past, but I guess I'm just not into them right now. I traded the Daytona for a BLNR, another modern piece. I think it will be a better fit with the Milgauss and DSSD. If I add another Daytona down the road, it will be white dial SS. Thanks everyone for all your opinions.

I'll have it midday tomorrow! Pumped!!

Nice to read the evolving of your purchases Matt. Thanks for sharing. I actually been thinking of adding a milgauss gv / daytona / blnr. So very intresting:)

How does the blnr compare to your milgauss?
