Incoming Daytona
Finally arrived, unsized/unworn without dealer stickers
 As soon as I got it, I removed a couple links and adjusted it.Couple of observations, haven't never worn it myself, only seen it in pictures and on someone else's wrist (but in black). - It wears small, compared to my SubC, and even more compared to my SD43. The "smallness" is relative. I can only imagine comparing it with the DSSD  I prefer chunky watches, but this is a change for me.- The black bezel makes the watch contrast so much, love the rounded casing. - Feels less of a tool watch than the SubC, and that is a good thing to change it up, as I tend to get bored with things really quick. - Love the small details and the dials.  Overall, pretty pleased with the trades I made for it. |

Ha, well it's 1.5mm smaller than a Sub so this makes sense.
 Congrats!  Oh, and check your crown guards. Looks like they forgot a couple stickers! |

Really nice
You may think it wears small, but especially on you it’s the perfect size. Tapers to the wrist like a DJ and so do the lugs like an older sub. The new subs and sd’s really are big watches. I remember think the Daytona was small, but that was because I was use to subs. Now I much prefer the size. |

The main difference is not the dial size, which in nominal, but the supercase and thicker lugs on the Submariner. I really enjoy the more classic dimensions of the Daytona. Congrats and Enjoy the difference

It’s a beautiful watch.. but only few are lucky to get one! The flippers have made it impossible for real watch lovers
 I hope to buy one day else would be happy to pick a TT Daytona. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Congrats! The Daytona never really tempted me until this model was released a few years back. I’m a huge fan of the ceramic bezel and contrasting white dial.
