Hey All,
So a few weeks ago I traded a lot of my collection for a truly awesome watch: a Rolex Daytona Black 116520. It's a 2005 in amazing condition. Just serviced and has an upgraded 4130 movement. However, I'm also a little wary of making this watch my everyday piece, as much as I might want to. It's like walking around with a mortgage on my wrist. I found myself feeling uncomfortable wearing this as often as I do. I'm afraid of scratching or dinging it. So today an idea dawned on me: I'm considering selling the Daytona and buying a 39mm Explorer 1 and pocketing the extra cash. I'm not sure what to do here. On one hand I have this awesome grail watch, but on the other hand the Explorer might make a better GADA watch. I'm really interested in hearing what you guys think about this. If YOU had this conundrum, what would you choose? Thanks!
