Get rid of my Daytona?

[jshell]

Was offered one of these the other day for a good price: http://forums.timezone.com/index.php?t=msg&got...

Should I trade up from the SS black faced Daytona, and if not, why? The price and year are the same, 2008.

The AP is a real watch. I would do it in a heart beat.

Wouldn't even have to think about it.

Get the AP.

Have you got the wrist for it?

I do, my DSSD looks just fine....

The AP's pics simply don't do it justice, it's magnifico!

[al1991]

Ah, so you have a DSSD.

You really don't need both

Please get the AP, then post pics

[LukeBird]

Neither do a lot for me, but I'd go for the AP over the Daytona anyday.

Sorry i know im probably the only one but i think that AP looks horrible. I must add theres not one AP i actually like the look of in anyway.

I agree too....but I am biased as I have a SSD myself. I'd never trade it for that.

[CardShark]

That's the best looking RO I've seen but I'm still not keen. I'd keep the Daytona if I had to have one of the two, but I'm not too made up about that one either...

[Ikemi]

I'm not particularly excited by the styling of the Daytona, so I voted for the AP

[KP328]

I know this might sound like a trivial point, but the AP has a date and the Daytona doesn't, and not having a date would annoy me.

Watch idiot savant really is an unbelievably pretentious, smug and pompous term you know?

I've only the photo to go on, but that AP looks like something you would see in Next.....

Clumsy, ugly and trying too hard to look fashionable.....Don't do it!

The photograph does not do it justice. Handle an AP and you will see why a few of us see this as a no brainer. They are simply incredible.

You are definitely not the only one - I think the AP is hideous.

[al1991]

A lot of people on this thread with no taste

Fair point, photos rarely do justice to their subject and I for one have never personally handled any AP, let alone that one. I might try it on if I had the budget (which I don't!) but only to challenge myself as I've tried others on in the past and found them better on the wrist than off, but based purely on that photo I still don't 'get' it...
