I had both, Submariner date and Daytona SS ( my sub was stollen). The sub looks bigger because the bezel color, IMO.

I think the Daytona wears a tad bigger than the 14060 even though they are the same size IMHO.

i think its the reverse.
the Sub wears bigger than a Daytona, due to the rotating bezel

I think the sub wears bigger due to the hollow centre links

Thanks for taking the time to upload the picture for me it's most appreciated. And may I say your Sub and Daytona look stunning.

The Sub (ESPECIALLY a Sub C) feels much bigger even though they are both 40mm. The Sub is much thicker than a Daytona.

Every time I tried on a Daytona (White) it felt very small compared to either 14060M or 16610LV...Kinda like a Explorer...but a tad smaller.

Had them both for some years (traded/flipped long ago). Either seemed alike to my eyes as they were rotated daily. I agree the white dialed Daytona seemed optically smaller than the TT Panda dial. Must be an illusion since all 3 were identical 40mm
