black 116500 vs green skydweller on oyster

[wwjd]

If you had the choice between these 2 at retail which, would you chose and why?

[Spoonage]

Skydweller would be my choice.

[Duke10]

Daytona all day

Because of my wrist size, Daytona.
If I had a bigger wrist, Sky Dweller.

[agriculture&watches]

Sky dweller if you want to green dial. But if you decide to go with Daytona with white dial I would choose Daytona

[joli160]

The SkyD for the fluted bezel and its useful complications.

[travisb]

Two very different watches in size, function and looks.
I'd go Skydweller.

[brandrea]

Tough to compare such different watches. I’d probably go SkyDweller

I personally prefer the Sky-Dweller but at retail from an AD I would go with a white dial SS Daytona. At retail, the Daytona-C is a great watch.

[KatGirl]

I couldn’t wear a Skydweller, so Daytona. I prefer the Skydweller, aesthetically and complicationwise, though.

The sky dweller is sorta big. The Daytona is sleek. Even though I’m a Rolex fanboy I would rather stick to the Daytona due to its historical longevity, plus it’s a Daytona. It’s the pinnacle of Rolex sports watches and on the wish list of a lot of collectors.

Two different sized watches, so try before you buy ..
Skydweller on OysterFlex was one of my requests until I tried it on, felt very top heavy .. they look lovely, green with fluted bezel is very attractive looking watch, but wouldn’t work for me …
I find Daytona is my watch of choice, over almost everything, I’m not fussed about dates and complications .. I know the day/date/month without looking at a watch, I’m old but not senile …

You’ve said what I think ..

[Rolex1982]

SkyD!

At retail... Daytona of course

+1. Tough to compare.

I'm lucky as I have both the black Daytona and a white SS Sky D.

[Joearch]

Much prefer wear the Daytona’s over the SkyD.

[Barada7]

If they’re offering you both at retail, then you do whatever’s necessary to get both.

[Hkspwrsche]

Daytona. I have a 7.75 wrist and have owned a Deepsea but the SkyDweller seemed too large.

[nyc2la]

Daytona.

[Cauhauna]

i have a white daytona and a blue sky

the sky never gets worn. hard to wear anything other than the daytona once you fall in love with it.

[RollingInTheDeep]

In order of best response:

1. The one you like more.

2. Daytona.

[Doood]

SkyD. Prefer jubilee, but oyster is good too. I prefer the black Daytona over the white, but both such dainty watches. It’s a shame Rolex doesn’t offer a larger chronograph.

x2

[karleone]

Daytona!

[Harry-57]

I'll take the Sky Dweller. Thanks very much.

[SMPc]

Daytona. Much better size overall

[thegrandseirolexguy]

Sky dweller.

Love the useful complication, user friendliness and aesthetic.

No other annual calendar on the market looks as luxurious or robust. No annoying recessed pushers that compromise WR too.
