I vote for Daytona especially if your wrist is < 7". Comfortable and can wear on any occasion . Good luck on your decision.

For daily wear, I would go for the sub.

Why would you say that??? I work with estates every day and absolutely I would have clients take their time when picking out jewelry. It’s a very personal matter, and you should not feel strange at all by taking your time and making the right choice. No one handling the estate would give it a second thought if you tried on each watch.

I've owned/worn both the Ceramic Sub and Pre-Ceramic Daytona and the Daytona is the most comfortable watch. Of any brand. Ever.

Touch call. Either the Sub LV or Deep Blue. I prefer the Sub but also really like the clasp and ceramic upgrades of the DSSD. I personally would settle on the LV though!

Why don’t I have relatives like that who leave Rolex in their will. All I ever got was debts and get scared every time I hear the word “will”.

On serious note I think Daytona will be the best. I’m no expert but bought a Daytona for my husband recently and he totally loves it and told me it’s very comfortable as well for daily wear.

It would be between the Daytona and sub for me...slight edge to the sub b/c it has the date function.

I have three wearers: my Sub 14060M COSC non-date, my 1630 two-tone DJ, my 19019 WG Day-Date oyster quartz. The Sub is 40 mm and the other two are 36 mm.

Personally I would go with the Sub LV . But there isn't a wrong choice ,as long as you choose the one you feel most comfortable wearing .

As Travis said. We all have our different tastes so if possible try them all on and see.
