Totally agree. This is one of the most underrated watches out there. Just beautiful! Does not disappoint in person.

I know how great the daytona is, but if I had to choose based purely on design, the Omega wins.

It's just a better looking watch.

The CK dwarfs the Daytona. I also bought a ceramic Daytona and recently acquired a Speedmaster Broad Arrow (original release). When comparight them I can't help but think that the Daytona needed to be 1.5mm bigger but sadly that is an entirely different conversation

Nice CK boys!!!!!!

Might just be the camera, that's with them the other way, they seem similar in size on the wrist although the CK is thicker.

What's the rough measurement w/a ruler of the bezel diameter of each? My standard Speedy is 40mm.

Can't agree more! Got already my ck but prefer it on the original strap, waiting for my white daytonaC. They're both stunning watches each on its merits.
