Ive got another itch, i have been thinking about a Daytona for some time and i liked the TT Panda dial.

However i keep thinking about the BLNR so off i went today to the local dealer but unfortunately they didn't have either.

I know TT is at a disadvantage as it doesn't have as many followers naturally. Just curious what you would pick. I always follow my heart but until i try on another BLNR i can't make up my mind.

what would you choose

borrowed pic

BLNR looks stunning, love the panda even with TT too. But can't help thinking i passed up on the BLNR in the summer in favour of the bluesy.

Personally I would go with the Daytona. Seems classier

Seaswirl · 1 February 2015, 02:47 AM

Of the two, I'd go with the BLNR. The Daytona dial is stunning, but I'm not a big fan of tt. If it was the BLNR vs. a ss Daytona, then I'd go Daytona.

I just am torn about TT. Panda dial is amazing though.

grrr · 1 February 2015, 02:49 AM

The panda dial is great but im not a fan of the two tone.
I would go for a SS daytona and save for WG.

GMT looks nicer.

ZeKe · 1 February 2015, 02:57 AM

Panda looks great

nc42acc · 1 February 2015, 02:59 AM

Today I say BLNR, tomorrow I say Daytona. Ultimately both would be great in a collection.

Daytona looks great. If I was buying today, it'd be that.

travisb · 1 February 2015, 03:10 AM

GMT for me

Headshrinker · 1 February 2015, 03:12 AM

BLNR for me...

drjrhc · 1 February 2015, 03:16 AM

BLNR all the way. Like many have said, Panda dial is amazing. However, the TT turns me off. Just not something I fancy.

I would get BLNR, then wait for, save for, WG Panda.

My $.02.

dmesserly · 1 February 2015, 03:28 AM

If choice is one or the other...

For me...

GMT

c.capt · 1 February 2015, 04:43 AM

BLNR no doubt!

RHIII · 1 February 2015, 04:57 AM

I LOVE the panda dial...but I would go with the BLNR...I get on a kick with TT watches...I LOVE them for a while...and get tired of them...and repeat...

I wear a Stainless YM (blue dial) I added to the collection a couple weeks ago...and am considering picking up a BLNR later this year...

Is this gonna be a daily wearer?

Honestly, I dont think you can really go 'wrong' with either...

AK797 · 1 February 2015, 07:29 AM

Try on the TT Gmtc too, might be the best compromise.

doc.kool · 1 February 2015, 08:03 AM

GMT for me. Not trying to sound like a broken record, but if it was a ss daytona, it would be a much harder decision for me.

now if it was a vintage daytona, then it would be real easy

Henry C. · 1 February 2015, 08:22 AM

Love the TT. Daytona!

T01 · 1 February 2015, 08:26 AM

I would go for the gmt in this case. But it depends on what you already have in your collection.

AS1 · 1 February 2015, 09:08 AM

Not a fan of that particular Daytona so I would say BLNR

drgoro · 1 February 2015, 09:32 AM

Blnr

Muzz · 1 February 2015, 09:33 AM

Tough call, both are awesome! Would probably come down to what you are going to need (date and second time zone). If that isn't important, I would go with the Panda.
