Both great watches. I'm not worried if my Daytona value returns to MSRP or lower. I'm enjoying the watch. The Patek will always be a higher level of watchmaking. One can argue the Daytona as a model has patrimony (with similarities in design to the John Player Special). Both are amazing and in a perfect world you have both. But ultimately get the one you will use and enjoy more.

Good argument for the Daytona! I’d personally rather have the Daytona PM on an OF too. Cool nod to the John Player Special as well!!

One thing to keep in mind is three years ago AD's were offering YG Daytonas for under sticker and I'm sure they'll be back down there again when the gov stops printing money.

The full gold is too heavy for me plus I like the ceramic bezel more
