I'd prefer a SS full metal Daytona over an Oysterflex. Just my 2c.

“This” for sure. Both are ultimate versions of their references. The other two feel compromised.

PM hits differently. Its satisfaction is far lasting compared to ss. Strictly personal experience.

PM Daytona > SS Daytona in most cases IMO. Then you’d have one PM, one SS, which is a great combo. The LV is a great gada watch IMO and a Daytona + Sub is a great duo!
So…I personally would prefer 1 PM + 1 SS VS 2 SS …..depending on the combo. In this scenario, with your watch choices….between this or that…definitely THAT

Agree with this.

As much as I like the 116500, the 116519 in WG is more special and is also a true “panda” dial

This is what I am thinking as well.

However the 116500ln was my 1st watch....
Also have worn it during a lot of life events (Wedding, birth of 1st child, etc.) Struggling with the potential regret of upgrading it.

THIS is perfect one two punch.

If you feel like you need PM maybe a 519 and BLNR (oyster)

I'm a fan of THIS, maybe because I'm tired but THAT PM Daytona isn't doing it for me.

I chose the 116519 LN only because it’s the one I don’t yet have from your choices.

It would definitely be THIS for me. I love those 2 refs! However, the WG OF Daytona w/steel dial in THAT, is such a beauty and is one of my grails!

An impossible decision. I actually can’t decide.

Ok, if you twist my arm, WG Daytona OF + Cermit.

IMO, the SS Daytona and the SS BLRO are timeless classics. They’ll be amazing forever.

The OF Daytona is beautiful, but not as timeless on the rubber.

I love the LV, but I’d say the consensus is that it’s the least favorite iteration of the LV’s.

Keep what you got.

Keep what you have! I would much rather have the 116500 and BLRO over the other two.

I’m going to add the PM if it were me. So option 2 for me personally.

I would choose THAT due to the WG Daytona with silver panda dial. I would be happy either way with a Pepsi GMT or green bezel Submariner.
