Which one is nicer?

sleddog · 28 February 2010, 02:08 PM

A very subjective question...
For me it's the TT but the most sort after is the SS!!! It's all up to your own taste....

jamesworthy52 · 28 February 2010, 02:34 PM

I don't really like TT watches so I would go with the SS. I think it's a matter of personal taste though.

EarthAngel · 28 February 2010, 02:41 PM

i would go with SS.... its just me... to each his own.

JRA21 · 28 February 2010, 02:51 PM

Well you cant really go wrong with any on a black dial ! but love the WG one !

Z-Sub · 28 February 2010, 03:23 PM

SS or TT if you're over 50 then gold adds sophistication

hennabav · 28 February 2010, 06:27 PM

For me I think the SS is the most beautiful. The TT on the Daytona doesn't look as good in my opinion.

Singslinger · 28 February 2010, 07:45 PM

TT offers better value for money (discount off MRSP vs full MRSP for S/S). Also, there are more dial options - black, white, mother-of-pearl, champagne gold, slate grey, with/without precious stones).

Quite simple the one you prefer,IMHO the TT are far nicer watch. The S.steel models because they have always been hard to get, are perhaps now just a fashion statement for that main factor.

Atomant · 28 February 2010, 08:28 PM

Strange for me I seem to only prefer the single tone on a Daytona which is the SS or the WG and I prefer the black TT on the new submariner.

Tombstone · 28 February 2010, 08:29 PM

Well said the one you prefer.

Gaijin · 28 February 2010, 08:29 PM

However SS has way better long term value...

The GMT Master · 28 February 2010, 08:38 PM

I think the TT Daytona is a forgotten watch in the Rolex line up, so many people ignore it in favour of the SS Daytona. I'd personally take the TT any day over the SS, especially when you can get such great looking dials on it. I'd recommend one of three: Blue arabic, black, or the white arabic "panda" dial. If you want a truly "rare" modern Daytona, TT is the way to go

walds11 · 28 February 2010, 09:22 PM

SS. I am not a fan of TT watches.

HL65 · 28 February 2010, 09:34 PM

For me--The SS--the TT is nice but again--it all comes down to your taste. The SS has great resale--if that is going to be a factor.

promethus · 28 February 2010, 10:47 PM

For obvious reasons, the SS is the best choice.

But if you are going for TT, go for one with diamonds =P

Kiddodoc · 28 February 2010, 10:55 PM

I have the TT with the white face and it is stunning. I have plenty of SS so I have the versatility if I need it. The TT gets a lot of heads turning when I wear it.

Get what you want and do worry what everyone else thinks is better.

fleabag · 28 February 2010, 11:00 PM

I would choose SS, but would personally choose TT,for future value SS always.
Does this make sence ? LOL !!

Art 1 · 28 February 2010, 11:41 PM

I have the SS but after wearing it for a number of years now don't know why more don't opt for the TT.

Cristell · 28 February 2010, 11:45 PM

TT ..... just my opinion

Dr.B · 28 February 2010, 11:55 PM

SS

Prince · 1 March 2010, 12:01 AM

As a personal preference (and because I have the one below), I ALWAYS choose steel & gold!!

rustedmetal · 1 March 2010, 01:05 AM

Better deals can be had on the TT!! If I can save 3K buy buying TT instead of SS, I'd learn to live with the gold.

slcbbrown · 1 March 2010, 01:17 AM

I prefer TT, generally and have been eyeing a TT Daytona. The TT is the better value. However, I tried on a SS Daytona at the watch place, the other day, and was really impressed with the look. The SS Daytona is very dressy looking and a lot less sporty looking than I expected. It also wears smaller, IMO, than the other 40mm watches.

PeteNYC13 · 1 March 2010, 01:23 AM

I like the TT but have always LOVED the SS, I came close to buying a TT last year but I didn't.
I was afraid that as soon as I bought a TT Daytona, an AD would find me the SS that I really, really wanted.
I was at a business conference a few months ago and saw one in the "wild" and I have to say, it looks great!
My vote, pick the one you love, not the one that is easier to get or you think will hold value. At the end of the day, you have to smile every time you look at your wrist! -Isn't that what Rolexes are for?! :-)

JUSTROLEXES · 1 March 2010, 02:09 AM

I'll go for SS IMO

fleabag · 1 March 2010, 02:10 AM

Thats like saying I'll learn to live with my super model girl-fiends big boobs.

jnmarshall · 1 March 2010, 02:21 AM

TT or YG. If you are going to spend that kind of money you should get the precious metal. Gold always looks nice too.

nyfida · 1 March 2010, 02:21 AM

I am still deciding between the two and it is one of the most difficult

decisions I have had in my life. I guess like somebody mention you can't

go wrong with either. We need more feedback and pics from those who have

or had both.
