Don't like chronos, and prefer a date, so i'd be dropping that daytona really quick if I were in your shoes.

I’d keep the Daytona. No question.

Ever since Rolex started to phase out the folded metal clasps, I’ve never looked back.

Do you like diving or speeding?? You should keep both actually, but .. sometimes we have to make tough decisions.

Daytona it is for me.

I’m with him ^^^^

Unless you are in urgent need of cash I’d find a way to keep both. Neither are easy to replace and they feel/wear/look very different.

I have exactly the same. It’s a tough call. LV wears great and Daytona is in a whole different level. I would try to keep both if you can. You will miss whichever one you let go

Daytona by a mile. Maybe it's just me, but I prefer Hulk over the kermit too. The kermit got hyped up when it was discontinued, but it's meh for me

The Daytona for sure...I don't think the lv is as versatile as the Daytona aesthetically.

Given the love for the LV I see on this board I'm surprised this is so one-sided.

That being said....Daytona for me.

This is such a tough choice. Daytona definitely looks better, but
LV has much better future value. I’d go with 16610lv.

I have neither so i won't be useful. However I own the hulk so I say green wins.

I'd keep the D500, that shade of green just never quite did it for me.

You can always buy a new Daytona, U can't buy a 16610LV anymore.

Keep both if possible.

Daytona fever never ends

The Sub is a classic and the LV version an appreciating one, so the Sub beyond doubt.
