Do you wear a Daytona as a daily?

The hollow end links and bracelet, acrylic crystal, just build quality in general after wearing modern Rolex had me concerned. The idea and concept ended up being more alluring than the reality, but again just my opinion and take. There is really no more beautiful Daytona reference though.

If I could get a modern 6263, brushed everything, same smaller 36-37mm size, same dial, modern bracelet movement and clasp, I would be wire ready yesterday..

YMMV!!

That is so disappointing, thank you for raining on my parade haha. What size is your wrist? I don't mind the smaller case, I do fear your input of it feeling delicate, I have yet to handle one and sounds like I need to before purchasing. Did you cause any damage to it while you owned it?
