White SS Daytona or Sub C LV

I wish to get inputs from this forum on this hypothetical question:

If you were asked to retain a watch, which would it be -- Daytona or Sub C LV?

Thanks for your inputs.

I'm a big LV fan, but I recommend it as a fun second watch; Daytona first.

Hmm...I'll say it depends on what else you've got. That said, probably the Daytona.

Try them on, you will know which is better for you.

Personally, I'd go LV.

Get the one you like the most. There's no right or wrong answer. Both are incredible timepieces. I'm getting LVc next.

Two questions--do you like a date on the watch? Daytona tend to wear small, so you may want to try one on if you have a larger wrist.

For me Sub.
