I have these two and they complete to be on my wrist equally. I tried SS Daytona older steel bezel and a white stick DJ 41. Both couldn’t stay for different reasons. I am looking for something that could challenge this duo and add to the mix but I am also afraid I may buy something and quickly regret. Or may be I could just be content with these

Try a ceramic daytona?

Socal Runner · 13 August 2024, 01:09 PM

Panda, Black Dial or OF Daytona would be the best bet if you can pull it off. The new reference for all - The OF band would be a nice change up for you.

+1 on the OF Daytona. I love mine.

ian.thomas · 13 August 2024, 01:55 PM

Your two are fantastic!

BIGMAC142 · 13 August 2024, 02:20 PM

Yellow gold or Everose gold Day-Date.

Ferrari-F430 · 13 August 2024, 02:29 PM

Solid yellow Gold Sub or a two-tone sport model (GMT/SUB) to mix it up a little.

rmlovett1 · 13 August 2024, 08:50 PM

YG or TT non-professional model would be my suggestion.

BriansRolex · 13 August 2024, 08:56 PM

YG Sub or YG/RG DD40 once you go PM you won't look back

1William · 13 August 2024, 09:10 PM

PM Submariner or Sky-Dweller if it works for your wrist.

Easy E · 13 August 2024, 10:24 PM

A Bluesy make that a killer trio

brandrea · 13 August 2024, 10:29 PM

Another brand?

Lovely duo

watchwatcher · 13 August 2024, 10:47 PM

Tell us more about the reasons the other Daytona and DJ didn't work out for you.

Daytona while a beautiful watch to look at, it didn’t work for me as I quickly realized that I need a ticking seconds hand in a mechanical watch which is really a big deal for me. I even kept the chrono running for that reason but someone told me it’s not a good idea. I know it’s sounds crazy. I also prefer a Date but that is not a dealbreaker and I can live without. The white stick DJ although very clean just felt too simple but my taste might change on it and I could come back. I guess I like colors

Great pair of watches you have there. How about a Speedmaster?

t65tampa · 13 August 2024, 11:00 PM

Ceramic Daytona or a yellow gold Day-Date. Maybe even a simple Explorer.

Wait until you know exactly what you want, perhaps?

H0KIE FAN · 13 August 2024, 11:52 PM

How about a vintage birth year piece? That's what I'm holding out for.

OG1982 · 14 August 2024, 01:14 AM

Try AP, PP or even GP.

At this point you seem to have or have experienced most of what Rolex has to offer.

Quite frankly, watch collecting would be rather boring if we all stuck to one brand.

996marty · 14 August 2024, 01:16 AM

VC overseas would be my pick

+1 Daytona

I have a few GMT's and Subs I regularly rock my Batman, Sprite and Pepsi and have to say I am now converted and love the Daytona and an amazing addition to the stable!

adawil2002 · 14 August 2024, 04:54 AM

Black Daytona

If a chronograph interests you and you’d like to try something different, I really like the 321.

I’m also pretty smitten with this GO but have yet to see one in person

I hope to be the same in the future. Love your AP btw.
