If you have those three, great lineup!
Then your daily should be what feels right for that day and/or activity.

⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️ Agree with George but if were to pick only 1, it'd be the Sub...due to most versatility and ceramic bezel

I would prefer the Explorer. Not sure why but it always looks good with dress shirts that are lighter coloured and has the date with second time zone.

The Explorer II is probably my next watch, it has everything I want including GMT, if I could get a BLNR I probably would but now a 40mm pre owned is the watch.

I want to vote for the Daytona because I love the size and I think toes the line the best between sports and dress. But I think the lack of a date would make it hard for me to wear one daily.

I voted for an explorer II, mostly because I own one, but I like the size better and well for me I would prefer my daily be a bit less of a conspicuous Rolex than a sub. But that's just my personal preference

Difficult SubDate & EXII are both excellent daily beaters.

Wow, Sub takes 70%! Thought it would be a far more even spread than that.

Me as well, especially thought we'd see more Daytona. Perhaps ceramic is the preferred daily.

I'd pick the Explorer II 16570 out of those three choices for my daily driver. I used to have a black-dialed 16570, and if I would have purchased the white to start with, then I would have kept it. Probably the most comfortable watch I've owned.
