Unfortunately it would have to be the Daytona. The chance of getting another chance to buy it would seem unrealistic. I turned down the Sub with the green bezel. So a Sub will come back around. I hate that this hypothetical situation seems to be the reality.
I picked the sub because I have one 16610 with date ,tried the GMT lefty on but it didn't look right with the date window on the wrong side,tried a Tudor chronograph on but couldn't see the small dials without putting my glasses on so no good
Sub. I’m not a fan of the Daytona. I know most lust after it however I think that’s because of the hype. If it was freely available and it was generally in competition with other Chronos then I’m not sure it would be the market leader, it certainly wasn’t before.

I wear my watches on the right arm so that’s why the lefty is my choice of the GMTs. But I get your point 👍🏼
If the choice was based on what I would wear most at this stage I would chose the Daytona. I am looking for a chronograph (although Id rather have a the Speedmaster 321).
We’ll just saying that of the choices you provided, the answer has to be Daytona, and nothing else, because of you like one of the other ones, you’d always be better off by choosing Daytona, which will enable you to get the other two!
I’m not a fan of the Daytona and don’t like the colorway or layout of the sprite. That leaves me with the Sub and you can certainly do worse than the most iconic watch of all time. Given the choice of all models in these ranges, I would probably go Pepsi GMT.
Not because of the hype but just the specs. As someone who's been hunting for a chronograph for a while, I appreciate the 100m WR (other watches have this I know) but including screw down crowns AND pushers, 12hr subdial, lume, and the overall package being under 42mm and 14mm thick
But also not A or B for the following reasons.
Not the sub because there are sooo many dive watch options that are more interesting it just as bland as the sub. So the field is saturated with options.
Not the gmt master because all it is doing is displaying essentially a second time zone using the hand and the bezel together. Without an inner rehaut displaying another 24 hour register it essentially it's just using a bunch of extra space inefficiently. This watch doesn't need a bezel and if you want to be able to track a second timezone there's a lot that do it fit cheaper even with a jump hour hand

I’d rather have a 5 digit 16600 Sub.
Fiscally, the Daytona is the move, but both that and the sub are icons.

The Daytona is beautiful but I voted Sub.
The Daytona because its lighter in weight.
I pick the Daytona only so that I can sell it and get 3 grand seikos.

Fair enough. GS doesn’t quite do it for me but I get why people like them.

Why would you choose the Sub over the other 2 ? Out of curiosity.

Iconic to the brand itself

Don't need a GMT and for me the Sub works better as a one watch collection than the Daytona.
The Daytona is the sexy beauty. The Sub is the one you marry.
If I can only one, I want the everyday all occasions subdued but classy watch. Sub in black

Haha. I shop at WoS who don’t have a jewellery side. So I’m safe from that trap at least.

If you really wanted to, you could buy the Daytona, sell it and get both a sub AND a gmt with another $10k in the bank…
If it was that easy we’d all be doing it!
I voted with my wallet.
Respect.
There is something wrong with your poll OP, it must be malfunctioning because all I see are Rolexes. That just has to be wrong.
Lol why is that a problem?
Man I want a sprite. I'm left handed watch is on my right wrist. How cool would that be to wear a watch right.
Yeah I wear them on my right too so that’s why I chose the sprite.
Pass on all
Why?
Why?
For me the Sub is bland. Just don't get the Daytona. The GMT Master is they only Rolex I want but that LHD version is WTF.

For England James.
Classic no date sub.
kinda out of chronos at the moment and the sprite is a bit too wild.
Alway's fancied a non date, but the date version made a unexpected purchase back in 1997, a 40th birthday present was secured for me.👍
