BLRO GMT in SS or WG easy winner. The Daytona looks incredible as well but the functionality is not there for me. I have almost no use for a chrono but a date and second timezone are useful daily.

Answer is: Daytona

The GMT is not as comfortable a watch for daily use compared to the Daytona.

My favourite of the lot above is by far the TT Daytona with black MOP dial.

Impressive GMT / Daytona selection !!

The new Daytona ceramic with the white dial is the first Daytona I love. But I'm still a BLRO guy to the core.

Juantxo · 25 March 2019, 01:10 AM

The GMT is a much more practical watch than the Daytona. The Daytona is a great watch but mostly desired because it is hard to get. And people are funny that way.

It is hard to see the time on the Daytona (black or white or whichever), doesn’t have a date, and unless you have race horses but lack a proper chronograph you’ll use the Daytona’s stopwatch very rarely.

The GMT has large hands that scream the time, a double time (even triple) function, all useful specially if you travel.

Forget the color of the bezel. Buy a watch to serve you, and not otherwise.

carolina23 · 25 March 2019, 01:11 AM

Daytona...

173rdabn · 25 March 2019, 01:12 AM

Daytona and done.

hodie9 · 25 March 2019, 01:37 AM

Daytona for me but if the BLRO was on Oyster, it would be a closer call. Just don’t like the jubilee.

I don’t know about this. I use my chrono function quite a bit, but I’ve never felt the need for a GMT despite traveling quite a bit for work. Granted, all of my travel is 3-7 hours of home time so the math is pretty easy.

I’ve got to go with the Daytona C (white dial) between the two. I just love everything about it.

They Daytona could be my only watch. GMT BLRO (current ceramic SS) could only be an additional watch, not a primary. I like the pop of colour but not every day.

hallidc · 25 March 2019, 02:17 AM

BLRO for me. Love the way the daytona fits however I enjoy the GMT models more.

Snow-Dweller · 25 March 2019, 02:19 AM

GMT for a more useful complication.

GMT for this traveler. If you can only have one then a dual time and date are far more useful IMO. Better size too.

LesserBlackDog · 25 March 2019, 02:49 AM

Daytona. I’ve tried on a WG model and IMO it just sits much nicer and hugs the wrist better than any of the super case models.

For me it would be Pepsi on the Jubilee, more comfortable than the Daytona on Oyster . Much easier to read than the Daytona in most light conditions. Sold my Daytona C after I bought my Pepsi. Daytona is a great watch, I still have a 116520. If only one Pepsi!

jezza17 · 25 March 2019, 08:13 PM

Blro.

Beowulf · 25 March 2019, 09:36 PM

I need a Date complication and don't like the legibility of the DaytonaC, so it's easy.

As per value retention/history and if to keep in the safe, I'd probably get the Daytona tho.

GMT without hesitation. I like to use my watches for their intended purpose, even though I’m never without my phone- it’s a big part of the fun. More useful function for me on the GMT, plus I can read the time at a glance. Daytona is so lovely but damn hard to read for these eyes.

Rolex85 · 25 March 2019, 10:39 PM

Daytona

Finslayer83 · 25 March 2019, 10:47 PM

LazyDaniel · 25 March 2019, 10:54 PM

thui0708 · 25 March 2019, 11:21 PM

Daytona.

Daytona, The GMT is only in the ball park from a price perspective due to market conditions.
