Daytona for me
But get both if you can swing it

Mr. K · 15 February 2024, 04:04 AM

Between those 2. My vote is for the Daytona

I hope they slim down the case at some point.

I love both watches but I also totally agree with you.

Even though I prefer the GMT movement and complication, I would pick this Daytona over the BLRO mostly due to its perfect size and fit to my wrist.

Many modern Rolex sport watches are still just a bit too chunky for my taste.

Not a fan of any of the modern day Daytona,and not a huge fan of any ceramic bezel Rolex,if I had to choose it would be the GMT.

Have both but I prefer the Daytona over Pepsi.

fly4food84 · 15 February 2024, 08:43 AM

I sold my white dial 116500 last month to fund a Pepsi, etc. I pick the Pepsi.

ninjin · 15 February 2024, 09:30 AM

I have both in my collection and tbh, they are different beasts.

The pepsi is a larger watch and the Daytona more refined.

The Daytona can be sporty/casual as well as slide nicely under a cuff. Not so much with the Pepsi, the bezel is just too colorful.

Either one are nice watches, you have to make the choice yourself and don't get swayed by us on forums

Kiddodoc · 15 February 2024, 09:56 AM

Own both and they are both special. If only one then the Daytona as black can be used with any dress or occasion. The red and blue bezel is limited to certain situations but is a stellar watch on jubilee. Tough one. The date is a feature that can get you to lean towards the Pepsi.

geoffreyis · 15 February 2024, 10:28 AM

Have both. I find myself grabbing the 126710 most days. It’s just that good.

amphr1 · 15 February 2024, 11:10 AM

I would choose the Daytona. I think the Pepsi is way over valued. The price difference between a batgirl and a pepsi shouldn't be that wide. In my view the batgirl is only marginally less desirable / aesthetically pleasing than the pepsi.

Cambo · 15 February 2024, 11:17 AM

I have both, and love to mix them up. Would not part with either.

You think the Pepsi is over valued versus a Daytona?

The premium for a white dial is 4-5k too.

Black Daytona.

Sold Pepsi due to non use. Always reached for the Daytona due to comfort and monochrome color.

Watchsprings · 15 February 2024, 12:13 PM

I have the BLRO and am chasing the Daytona! One day I will have both.

You beat me to it. I got my BLRO in 2018 and my black 116500 11 months later. It would be really tough to get rid of either now.

Joearch · 15 February 2024, 03:28 PM

Have BLRO and a few Daytona’s. Both wonderful. Daytona gets more wrist time.

yesnaya · 16 February 2024, 03:39 AM

Have both. Daytona feels a little more special... so the pepsi gets more weekday wrist time and the daytona gets more weekends/special events wrist time.

gamingdoctor · 16 February 2024, 03:44 AM

Black Daytona, as it can be more easily worn up or down IMO. The newer pepsis are a bit...boisterous.

worldofoyster · 16 February 2024, 04:15 AM

Pepsi on oyster, best of both worlds.

AK797 · 16 February 2024, 05:30 AM

Daytona in all PM for me or its just too slight on my wrist.

brucethemanlee · 16 February 2024, 06:05 AM

I have both

With no emotional attachment I’d choose Daytona over Pepsi

However, my Pepsi has great significance to me as a result of life event so I’d choose Pepsi in that situation

Benjack · 16 February 2024, 02:24 PM

Daytona for sure.

Pepsi on Oyster for me, an icon amongst icons.

Not really a chronograph person so Pepsi GMT for me.
