·It wouldn’t matter to anyone that would wear the hideous thing, as I doubt they’d be able to tell the time anyway
Proof that the Speedmaster is superior to the Daytona

·And we never hear hyperbole from Omega fans/aficionados 😗
Omega also has holy grails for fans. Let me think about it.

·In my opinion, nothing looks as good as a Paul Newman Daytona.

·In my personal experience the biggest difference between the 2 is the "wow" factor. I might be at a party with my sapphire sandwich moonwatch and someone will ask "what kind of watch is that?". My reply is Omega speed master pro. and they will respond "oh, it's nice."
Now, in the same situation with my oyster-steel Daytona panda, same conversation but the final response will ALWAYS be "oh, wow. a Rolex, can i see it.". BTW, this is also true with a submariner in oystersteel.

·If the majority of the public believes a Rolex is the finest watch in the land why would someone want to play in that sandbox? Unappealing.

·I not insecure so don’t need recognition of prestige.
How mush of an inferiority complex would you have to have to need to rely on basking in the reflected glory of a bloody watch……sad bastards!

You joined the forum today and this is your first post? Did you just happen to see the original post and thought "Hey, how fortuitous, I own a Speedmaster and a Daytona and when I go to a party, people ask me about the watch I'm wearing!" Call me skeptical 👍

·You completely forgot to mention that the Speedy Pro is far superior simply because of the readability of the dial.
It literally wipes the floor with the Daytona in that regard alone.
Then there's the issue of service, as I'm confident that it would be easier to find a good independent watchmaker to service or repair the Omega to a good standard.
It's a strap monster as well😉
