I would say go with the one you can get. Both are hard to get.

I love the aesthetics of the Daytona so that would be my personal preference.

SkyDweller of course.

In any "Daytona -v- XXXXXXX" question, the correct answer is always not the Daytona.

Get the one you want or need the most.

Do you need chrono sub dials and a tachymeter more than you need a GMT function and an annual calendar?

If you can't make up your mind, buy neither. If you equally adore them, get both.

I think the OP is asking which will give him the best bang for buck as an investment v flex value. Why can't people just ask the question correctly?

Clearly you are following the hype, not the actual watch you like.

Daytona will fit a smaller wrist, Sky Dweller a larger wrist, what size is your wrist.

If you're going for stainless steel then it will be a long wait whichever watch you choose, unless of course you have the funds to go grey.

If you do have the funds to go grey you might want to consider TT from the AD instead.

This is the most relevant response ITT,the SkyD is indeed on the larger side of things and the Daytona (for me anyway) seems to wear like a 38mm even though it is not.

At the end of the day, I would go for the one you will want to wear every day. They are both very nice watches and you can only go wrong if you purchase one and never wear it and dont really love it.

I own both and if put to the choice, with a 7.5-7.75 inch wrist, it would be the Sky-Dweller.

Both are great. If you are going dress...business ....the Sky. If you are going casual....jeans the Daytona. For an investment....impossible to know. Both are great. Get what you like. Fuck off.

Post poll on Instagram as it seems the question is about hype. Or it’s coincidence these are the 2 you like best and you had no idea they’re the hottest 2 ss models?

The SD is 4mm bigger than the Daytona... so that obviously is the biggest factor
