Both great choices but they wear very differently one like 40mm the other 44mm, so whichever fits you better.

Daytona has a much better movement, and looks a little better when it gets scratched (compared to the scratch-magnet AP).

Two very different pieces. That ROO on bracelet will be large and heavy. If you want something bigger, then that's the ticket. If you like the size of your current stable, the gold panda Daytona is quite nice. Personally between those two for me, SOLID GOLD ROLEX

Anyone know where that character went?

I sometimes ask myself, which one will be next, but even after all the research, the one I buy is the one that captures my heart in the moment.

Logic is good, but passion is where it's at.

As much as I love AP, I'd get the YG.

Thanks for all your help again TRF. After careful consideration I agree the AP ROO is a bit large, but I decided AP is definitely gonna be my next watch and decided to go with the Royal Oak Chronograph with a black dial. It will be incoming very shortly and of course I will post pics

Love the AP ROO on bracelet a lot, but I am also a Daytona guy !!!
so I would say, buy them both as they are really so different to compare them with each other.
Whatever your choice, it will be marvelous, you have very good taste man !
(I'll add I also have the BLNR and the original LV in my collection )
