Daytona two-tone or blue ceramic sub

For the last little while I've been debating on which watch I should get I'd like to go with the two tone either Daytona or Submariner. The dial and bezel combinations I'm not sure on what I'm going with I've thought about blue ceramic or black ceramic in the sub as well as you the black or white two-tone Daytona.

The dealer that I'm buying it from has mentioned that the submariners he either has in stock or will get them in shortly however the two toned Daytona's will have to be ordered from Geneva that is definitely something to think about as to when i will actually receive the watch.

The other thing to think about is the fact that I don't believe the Daytona at this time is being made with the ceramic bezel in the two tone version please correct me if I'm wrong but that is the information that I have, if this is true and I getting an old version of The Watch when they do replace the bezel that's also something that I'm thinking about and will help me make my decision.

I'd really appreciate all of your feedback by all means post photographs as well and it's much appreciated a two-tone is kind of a plunge for me I always said I would stay with stainless steel forever but it looks like my mind has been made on two tone maybe it's evolved I don't know much appreciate your comments.

You can't go wrong either or but if you really want a TT Daytona, I would wait after Baselworld to see the new models. There might be something for you!!

I'm not fond of two tone Daytona's so I would vote for the Sub hands down (just my opinion.)

I'd get this or a new ceramic one, and the YG Subc.

I have that same TT Daytona and it really has a presence to it. Really love it! I don' t have a TT sub so I cannot compare. Have the WG sub but it is not the same to compare. Try them both on and decide.

I have owned both and my choice would be the TT Sub. I am a fan of the Daytona as I have owned all of the combinations of metals, SS, TT, YG, RG but not WG or Platinum. As said earlier, Daytona in PM or SS.
