White Dial Chrono Battle! White Speedy vs Daytona
With all the hype around the White Speedy and Snoopy Moonswatch these days, made me want to check this guy out again. The white Daytona.
With the brand, exclusivity and difference of materials the Rolex is roughly double the price of the new Speedy. However the weight feel on the wrist, color of dial and overall feel, actually I was surprised it was a close wearing sensation.
With that said, if both of these were equally available, which one would you go for? Let me know in the comments below!👇😌

The Daytona if you can get it at Retail. The speedmaster is good but the endless number of versions and limited versions is a put off in my opinion....
The Omega is much more legible and would be my choice.
What about the O.G. snoopy speedy?
One is an icon , the other sells on status... 🚀
The Rolex out of those two. But if that had been a black dialled Speedmaster then I'd take that😂
Speedy 👍
speedy. imo much more refined and i prefer the roundish sloppy design compared to the daytona
I like the Daytona but prefer the Speedy.
I think the Omega has a cleaner, more elegant look to it. Also, as mentioned before, it is more legible.
I’m loving the new white dial Speedy. That gets my vote.

Daytona, in my opinion the Heuer Monaco is the king of chronos in my opinion, but I love the speedy, just not in white.

The Omega is a bit more versatile and subtle imo.
Speedy for me. Child of the space race and all, plus the Daytona seems a victim of its popularity. So many panda dials out there all trying to be Daytonas.
In terms of looks the Omega is a knockout. It may not look quite as good as the Rolex but it's close and the Speedmaster is much easier to read.
I had no hands on with the white one but I did handle the black one and in-hand it just doesn't feel as nice and solid as a modern Rolex. There are sharp corners at the end of the lugs and the bracelet has jiggly tolerances (by comparison). It's a great watch but the Rolex deserves to cost quite a bit more based on quality alone.
Omega. Cleaner aesthetics.
For sure Deytona! And then Speedmaster! 😅
The rolex looks better in my opinion if only it wasn't hard to get at retail! The omega should be black for the original version and they should stop it with all the nonsense editions! They make their catalog so dificult and confusing
I love both, but would choose the Daytona first if I could afford it.
I think that the Speedy is much more practical, but the Daytona is more visually appealing. I have a white dial Speedmaster Racing, and I really like the aesthetics, but it's difficult to tell the time at a glance, which isn't an issue with the black dial Speedy Pro, and doesn't appear to be an issue with the new white dial variant either.
I hate the modern Daytonas because of the way the subdials crowd the text at 12. The 3 to 9 line should be in the middle of the top 2 subdials.
Daytona for me and that’s not on hype as I desire neither , not a chronograph fan . For me the ceramic bezel and screw down pushers make the Daytona superior 🤷🏻
I went with Zenith El Primero. Man on the Moon watch is legendary but common and Daytona like the Royal Oak is hype that advertises w⚓️
I would go for the black dial Daytona!or the snippy moon swatch
Neither. I'm not into the Daytona and I am not a fan of the black Speedy. Have yet to see the white in person. I prefer other Rolex and Omegas over these two
Speedy all day, everyday.
I’d go for the Speedmaster. I just love that dial so much. I do like the Daytona, though. It’s a great looking watch.
The Daytona is iconic. You could spot one from a mile away. Both are stunning though! Got mine from SwissWatchExpo, I highly recommend them.
