Patek 5070G vs. Rolex Daytona

 
 By: Grisar : July 12th, 2019-13:08
Two very different watches, but both have strong characters. 5070 is extremely refined, elegant and looks the best indoors in my opinion, while the Daytona looks sportier and better outdoor. Daytona being my only Rolex will definitely get more wrist time ...  

5070G ...

in a league of its own. Enjoy !

It’s my pleasure....

Don’t forget WristScan this weekend πŸ‘

I have been patiently awaiting a Daytona.

But the Patek is in a different league.

Totally agree.

The 5070 is a much more sophisticated watch. A watch that I can appreciate for hours and days. Daytona is on the other hand a very practical and reliable daily beater. Hope your Daytona arrives soon.

You have a perfect couple! Many boxes ticked with only two watches

I'm still waiting for my Daytona, exactly the same as yours. If it finally arrives one day, I guess a few of my watches are going to be very jealous... Beautiful pictures by the way πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»

A very convenient watch!

Thank you very much. Yes, Daytona is a very convenient piece indeed. It's not too thick and on a steel bracelet which allows me to wear without any concern in the summer months. The ceramic bezel looks really attractive in the bright sunshine and the whol... 

Your description makes me desire the Daytona even more πŸ˜…

Actually, I believe I wouldn't have bought my last two watches if the Daytona had arrived in a reasonable time.

Both superb pieces......

But the 5070 for me has a wrist presence advantage. Love them both and you are correct the perfect summer duo for the beach and the night time party’s. enjoy your summer. M. ...

Fantastic PT Duo!!!

 
 By: Grisar : July 13th, 2019-07:26
Wow, you got really a fantastic duo. I'm curious how 5070P ages? Does it ages beautifully? Honestly, I'm very cautious when I wear big watches with edged and highly polished bezel. Have a nice summer! ...  

I wear it often and it does pick up a few case marks.

 
 By: Miles_151 : July 14th, 2019-01:17
The bezel is a scratch magnet. But then so are all the 5070’s the platinum is no more or less. Just a beautiful watch all round. M.

Love both

I have the 5070g and the Daytona WG on oysterflex. Both are great, but I agree with the above that the 5070 is in a different league. Plus, the clear back is more fun.

Demise through its own success. That’s what i think of the SS Daytona.

 
 By: rip9er : July 14th, 2019-07:32
As much as I liked being one of the first to have the SS Daytona it quickly lost its appeal when going to a party and 5 others had the same watch. The wg or platinum is the way to go for the Daytona for me. Below the photo reminding me of the party ha ha ...
