Battle of the brands: which one is to your liking?

Rolex Daytona two-tone vs. Panerai 231.
Both flashy, both have similar MSRP.

Also in the resale market the 231 holds it's value much better than TT daytona.

There are also 289 and 103 and now the 42mm Oro Rosa, I picked those two watches because of similar MSRP, and because both were on my desk.

I voted for both. I like my 231 but the TT Daytona is a beauty.
