As a new Black Bay owner (which I love, btw), get the Daytona without a doubt. You'll love it even more.

It depends which one you like the most. This are 3 complete different watches.
The black bay is more vintage design, the pelagos is modern and the Daytona is a classic. |

As I don't like the modern Tudor models my vote would be for the Daytona.

I'd get the Daytona but the BB is so well priced, hopefully you can end up with both.

My preference would be BBB, I have a white face Daytona but find it a bit feminine watch , not quite manly enough if you know what I mean lol!

I like all three watches and bought both the new Pelagos Blue and the Black Bay Black upon introduction. I have also owned too many Daytona's to count. In SS, TT and PM and it is a great watch. What I have always found about the Daytona in SS is that there are so many options other than it and it ties up a lot of money. Buy the Pelagos, Black Bay and a Speedmaster Professional for less than the Daytona and have a nice collection. Nothing wrong with the Daytona but for the money I would do alot more.

From your options how long do you need to wait to get the Daytona? If its not long honestly just wait for it it's worth the wait that I can assure you. If it's like a couple of years down the road get a black bay black to tide you over until then.

As you already have a sub, the Daytona would be my choice.

Trade the 114060 for a BB Black, and then use that difference to expedite the Daytona incoming.
