So I currently own the new EXP II black face, 216520 and a SD, 16600. I am going to trade my SD + cash for either the Milgauss GV or Daytona SS white face.

I really am struggling with which one to get. I really like both watches. To own two watches, Exp II and Milgauss or Exp II and Daytona SS? Any preferences?

Below pic of current watches...

Oops, Dilemma not Dillema!

improviz · 5 February 2012, 05:44 AM

With two watches I'd say it's better to have different colored dials, so given that choice I'd get the Daytona, or else consider a white dialed Milgauss if that strikes your fancy.

Mosco · 5 February 2012, 05:44 AM

GV, man, GV. And don't look back!

kmac666 · 5 February 2012, 05:48 AM

I hear ya on two different dials but I dont really like the white dial Milgauss that much...tough call. Majority in this thread may sway my decision...

kmac666 · 5 February 2012, 05:50 AM

Cost is also a consideration so that goes to milgauss...

nauticajoe · 5 February 2012, 05:54 AM

Sorry to hear that you have to let the SD go. It's definitely my favorite in the collection. But, if you go thru with the trade, definitely go with the Daytona.

Good luck!

liptonnr · 5 February 2012, 06:00 AM

My vote is for Daytona, a classic!

Passionata · 5 February 2012, 07:55 AM

D ,you wont regret

HL65 · 5 February 2012, 07:56 AM

Daytona

Lion · 5 February 2012, 08:38 AM

I would keep the two you have and just continue to save for the others.....I would never trade away the Sea Dweller!!!

Wow, you have the nicest diver and the current line nicest GMT; already. The milgauss will give you the same wrist feel as the SD. I assume most will choose the Daytona as it stands up well in pictures, but the in real life the Milly is a just a really nice watch.

Milgauss

kmac666 · 5 February 2012, 09:06 AM

Damn. This is a tough one. thanks for all the advice. Im leaning towards the daytona. I know the SD is a great watch but I just dont think i will wear it much now that i have the Exp II.

bluemartinifan · 5 February 2012, 09:38 AM

This one - I am on day 5 and liking it ALOT

thats a beauty bluemartini, congrats! think daytona is the call...still mulling though.

Singslinger · 5 February 2012, 09:53 AM

I would go for the Milgauss GV. The green crystal makes it really stand out, IMHO.

Kanger · 5 February 2012, 10:04 AM

Never trade away a SD for anything, just my 2 cents. And of the two you want, the GV for sure.

kmac666 · 7 February 2012, 01:06 AM

Thanks for everone's advice. I pulled the trigger on the Daytona SS. I love it.

eric23 · 7 February 2012, 01:18 AM

Both are nice watches!

compounddavid · 7 February 2012, 04:56 AM

Giants.jpgI have both. Daytona is My Love!

TSW · 7 February 2012, 05:00 AM

SD would be a keeper for me, But if i was trading it, It would be for the Daytona!

capote · 7 February 2012, 06:09 AM

GV...yes

king arthur · 8 February 2012, 12:00 AM

Gv!

xbox · 8 February 2012, 12:02 AM

GV.

You may find the Daytona a bit small if you like the Exp 42. GV is also bigger than the Daytona.

rukima · 8 February 2012, 12:43 AM

beautiful daytona!

pdpmojo · 8 February 2012, 08:48 AM

Strange how a lot of TRFers are cross shopping Daytonas and GVs.

Same answer every time.

mbuckley · 8 March 2012, 03:43 AM

The GV is beautiful---keep your two and save up for it.

mbuckley · 8 March 2012, 03:44 AM

The daytona is beautiful---stunning.
