GMT, most people I know who own both wear their GMT most of the time and actually use the functions (Date, timezones, using bezel as a makeshift timer).
On the daytona, you will NEVER use the chronograph... Why? because you need to take off the watch and unscrew the pushers to activate the damn thing. Yes you can twist them open to on the wrist but only with dexterity, and if you forget to twist them back well its not as water tight... |

The Daytona unless you really use the GMT complication.

Daytona, nicer looking, more complicated movement.

I prefer the Daytona to the BLNR 100%, if I was the OP who already owns a GMT I would take the Daytona.
Answering the original post’s question, if I only was to have one watch, and the Daytona and the BLNR were the only two I could chose from, I’d keep the GMT, it’s not as pretty IMO, but it’s much more useful to me.

I love the boldness of the GMT BLNR and the and the classical feel of the Daytona. GMT, then Daytona...then Sky Dweller!

The Daytona can be the one and only and never out of style watch. Better design, function and highly desirable. Daytona for me over any other watches in Rolex line up.

Gmt for me, perfect for traveling in different time zones. I go to Asia, euro and back to ya. Perfect tool & fashion statement.

Daytona. No question. I'd have to have the white dial, though.

GMT vs. Daytona
It’s amazing what a bracelet can do to a watch. I can tolerate the jubilee on the Pepsi but on the Batman it just feels wrong. If I had to choose between these two I would go with the Daytona even though I am a bigger GMT fan than a Daytona fan.

I had them both and only kept the GMT. The Daytona is a great watch of course, it’s just down to personal preference. I just prefer the size, shape, design and function of a GMT.

GMT, but BLNR would be my last choice of the GMT options.

I think I’d rather have the GMT actually, the more I look at the Daytona the more I’m put off by how hard the dial is to read at a quick glance.

Daytona, but everybody is different. The GMT is definitely special, but would prefer the Pepsi

Two completely different watch. Daytona for iconic and fashionability, GMT for versatility.
