So i own a AP 26320 rose gold on strap (white dial brown strap), AP 15400 (blue dial) and a SUbc 116613 (black dial).... since I own 2 APs both royal oaks I'm contemplating on flipping my 15400 for a Daytona C SS. Thoughts?

Tried to attach pictures but some issue with dimensions and size of pictures which forum is not allowing me to post

I actually sold my DaytonaC for an AP ROO. Since you own two RO's, I think it'd great to diversify a bit.

Sammk · 21 June 2017, 08:24 AM

Just what I was thinking... all 3 watches will be pretty different from each other

Blue RO on (the most amazing) bracelet for Daytona? Go take a cold shower and come back when you've recovered your senses please

mobster600 · 21 June 2017, 08:42 AM

Can you live without a date function? All 3 right now have dates. DaytonaC is cool

Sammk · 21 June 2017, 08:57 AM

This is the thing that bothers me

If you want the DaytonaC and you won't miss the others, DO It!

Minimalist · 21 June 2017, 09:19 AM

I wouldn't do it, my personal preference is the 15400 since I have no desire whatsoever for the Daytona C, I never liked the Daytona because I don't like chronos. Having said that recently I've taken a liking to the ROO, and I said to myself if I ever bought a chrono watch it'll be a ROO.....maybe that's an idea? A ROO is different enough from the RO to have in the same collection.

Peterandwatches · 21 June 2017, 09:38 AM

Either way is fine, but I think I'd be looking to move that AP for a PP instead.

HL65 · 21 June 2017, 10:25 AM

If you really want Daytona do it! I would however not pay a premium for it as if that is case no way. You will take loss on 15400 and pay up for Daytona...Not a good move IMHO.
Ps personally I would also keep both RO's as so different.

tonupbklyn · 21 June 2017, 10:32 AM

i think those two APs are vastly different from one another, and therefore worth keeping both.
if at all possible, I'd add the daytona whilst keeping the APs.

GB-man · 21 June 2017, 11:02 AM

I wouldn't. That blue is too nice!

Yup not for the blue, I'd rather trade the Sub.

Hairdude1 · 21 June 2017, 02:21 PM

I wouldn't move the blue dial 15400

Skittman · 21 June 2017, 09:02 PM

I have 26320 and 116500. Consider the royal oak far superior, finishing is second to none. If I had to choose one, it would be royal oak

I'm looking at a similar decision as I want a watch with a white face. Offshore on rubber or Daytona. I can't make the decision.

tcheeco · 21 June 2017, 10:35 PM

Don't do it, the only Rolex that worth to buy is a Submariner and you already have it, just my POV ;-)

youthagainsttt · 21 June 2017, 10:48 PM

No, I'd get rid of the sub for the daytona

rossi46 · 21 June 2017, 10:54 PM

I'll go against the grain and say do it. But I'm the kind of guy that doesn't like "repeats" in a collection.

I'm with you!

lapince · 22 June 2017, 03:19 AM

I prefer the AP but if you want diversity why not, though I would get a 5167 from PP, you would have leather, SS and rubber strap watches, which is quite nice

Sammk · 22 June 2017, 07:53 AM

It's kind of funny to imagine what the responses would have been if I asked this question on the Rolex discussion section as compared to the AP discussion section.....

And no I won't buy on premium no chance, so definitely on retail

No doubt the royal oak has a superior finish than the Daytona, only thinking of flipping because I own a chrono royal oak aswell... so basically for diversity...but at the same time the thing I don't want to do is regret my decision later

Manofsteelpt · 22 June 2017, 10:05 AM

I think your 320or and 400st are plenty different enough to keep both.

I do like Arnauds idea of a PP Aqua, and I would take that over the Day for sure, but idk over the blue 400.

I view it conversly, because you own a chrono in that royal oak, you dont need another chrono in the Daytona.

red1108nyc · 22 June 2017, 11:54 AM

Ha I did the opposite and went from black daytona C to 15300 blue! Still, having diversity is never a bad thing!

wach16 · 22 June 2017, 12:23 PM

Keep the two APs!

samsam · 22 June 2017, 05:16 PM

I'm not a big fan of the Daytona. Mainly because I need a date function.
Having said that, if you decide to sell the 15400, let me know. I've been looking for a used one for a while now. Serious.

I would flip the 15400 for the Daytona C. If we were talking about the Jumbo, totally different story.

tyler1980 · 22 June 2017, 06:47 PM

There is no way I would ever flip a blue dial 15400 for a SS Daytona.

For the WG daytona on Oysterflex though, I might.
