Daytona is my choice.

DeeTee · 16 June 2017, 07:07 AM

I like the Daytona more

WAK4 · 16 June 2017, 07:11 AM

Was bit iffy but went DD. If it was WG DD, then it'd be easy choice. Good luck!

Sarat1538 · 16 June 2017, 07:41 AM

Keep the DD40

For me, I do not sell any watch I own as I hate to bear the loss. For example, I wanted to sell the my DJ36 to fund my BLRO. The shop only offered half of my purchasing price. I waited for 10 more months to get my BLRO.

I might suggest though, that since you do dress casually (as I do) that you look at a WG DD...kind of tones down the gold look and would fit in nicely with the platona. Just my opinion, of course.

Thanks men...tough choice!
Wisdom/head says DD. Heart and love of the Daytona dial (why I kept the TT Daytona) says .......uuuhhhgggg

GMT Aviator · 16 June 2017, 09:17 AM

Hi Richard
With the Platona I think I'd be keeping the day date.
Having said that, I got a few duplicates of the same reference type but to me they are all subtly different to warrant keeping them all, for my own reasons of course.
Ultimately what sings to you the least out of the two will have to be the one that goes.
It's a tough call, they're both beautiful.

EDIT: if you dress casual most of the time then the DD most likely would be the one to go.

This is probably no help at all now!

Skyrider01 · 16 June 2017, 09:38 AM

That Day Date is a beauty! Don't let her go!

brandrea · 16 June 2017, 09:42 AM

The DD40 gets my vote; mostly because you already have the Daytona nicely covered

mtgjr · 16 June 2017, 09:44 AM

A DD is the only yellow gold watch I'd even consider wearing. I guess that means it gets my vote.

toucan · 16 June 2017, 09:46 AM

Dd 40!

sensui · 16 June 2017, 09:48 AM

keep the day date.

DramaTurtle · 16 June 2017, 09:54 AM

DD. Isn't close.

red1108nyc · 16 June 2017, 09:55 AM

You already have a super collection but I have a thing for Daytona

Exactly!! My 116520 rarely leaves the safe these days.

Chadridv · 16 June 2017, 10:53 AM

what else do you have in your steel stable?

Old Geezer · 16 June 2017, 12:20 PM

DD40. You have the other bases covered. IMO, a YG DD is "the" iconic Rolex.

Hodog16 · 16 June 2017, 12:29 PM

DD40 for sure. I like Daytona's but for some reason in YG the least.

1William · 16 June 2017, 10:25 PM

I prefer the Daytona.
