Rolex Daytona or Datejust

[Andypham96]

Hi guys,
Hope everyone are well and safe.
I’m trying to make up my mind between A 2006 Rolex Daytona 16523 and a brand new 2020 Datejust 2 tones with romain dials.
They’re both pretty similar in value, any suggestions would be helpful as this is my first Rolex.
Cheers guys

Datejust 41. It’s iconic and has a lot more upgrades. I hate the old clasps. Good luck. Are you only looking for two tone?

My early 2000's Datejust had the older clasp and since I've had the new oyster strap I can't look back that far. It's still a great watch and I love Daytona's but in this case I'd go for the 2020 datejust (although I don't like Roman numerals but that's just me)

Thanks man. Appreciate your feedback, didn’t know what to go for 😅

If you want attention, get the DJ TT with fluted bezel & jubilee

Depends what you want. It's not like they are remotely similar.

Professional design versus Classic design. One chrono, one clean dial with a date function. Which would you use more? Which do you prefer the look of?

Foe me the Daytona doesn't make the cut because the sub dials are too small for me to read easily and I like a date function on a mechanical watch. But I'm not you. I don't know what you like.

Probably something casual and can be a dress watch if needed too. I will bot be wearing it everyday, probably just for outing and stuffs.
