Rolex Daytona vs Omega Speedmaster Professional Mark II : Vintage Rolex 6263 vs Omega 145.014

Why didn't you wind the Rolex? It bugged me that the Daytona wasn't running.

[@DavidDatura]

Bani Niba me too!

I like both , the Omega still looking quite contemporary despite that 70s tonneau case and the Daytona classy as usual. But the latter costs 12 to 13 times more than the former! That’s a hard pill to swallow unless you have the dosh. In that case if you were a watch enthusiast, you’d get both!

To me the 'Daytona is more of a '60's design, where as the 'Speedmaster MKII' is more of a '70's design, I have a MKII and love it for everything that it represents and stands for. Even today the MKII looks like a contemporary watch design, rather than a back catalog reissue to hark back upon/too?!

very cool, nice watches... the mark 2 is super.

Interesting match. The Rolex is a classic look, today as well as when it was new. Reminds me of my Zodiac Sea Chron, but if I had to chose one to use in earnest where it's timing would have to be readable at a glance, the Omega would be my choice. The Omega styling is a bit qwerky but I love me some Lemania 5100. Just like an EZM 1, nicht wahr?

The Omega looks really cool, although I really the dial, I am not big on the case shape. The Daytona is just something special, a manual wind Daytona with a legible dial and uniqueness like no other, and it's my choice.

Fantastic video, Tim!

[@FirestormAA]

Love that Omege Mark2! What a beauty! Love this old skool look,,, I will for sure get one someday. How good can it get for this Mark2,,,, thank Tim for ur get review.

[@Beazy-0]

Beautiful pieces! Thanks for the review/comparison Tim ✌️

Take a shot every time says "redolent".

[@desertsoldier41]

That price of that Daytona is in lottery territory.

[@julieta203]

The Omega is still a nice watch but you cant compare it to the king even if the Daytona wasnt so damn popular and big $$ its way classier a watch than the MK II, the speedmaster MOTM is prob a better comparison

[@craig2100]

Great job with the comparison.

Great review, as usual. Nice 6263, shame that the case was over polished - the bottom right lug is as pointy as a toothpick. Not surprising on a 37mm case which doesn't have thick lugs to start with - the problem is the same on many vintage Datejust's.

We have an incredible example of an UNPOLISHED 1970s case in a Speedmaster 176.0012 on the channel right now. For the sheer novelty of an unadulterated 70s case, check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqbJqKywdrF6ftk Best, Tim

[@johnnyguitar6697]

@@the1916companywatchreviews Just saw that. Very, very nice. Thanks Tim.

[@totisanchez3607]

Brain choice omega Thats a Rolex that appeals to me but the price oh no?

[@sevrdaf]

200% watch POOOORN, this is two great watches, im thinking they both would look as good in Marbella on the wrist or in a few hot laps at the Nurburgring in a 1974 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.0 RS!!. great review as always, Thank you.

[@halebopp5332]

Rolex! Even a non-Rolex fan can get romantic about that era Daytona. Very nice comparison. 👍

[@leiflagercrantz8853]

Have a brand new Daytona - Love it also

[@leiflagercrantz8853]

Love the Omega - have 3 different, black/White, exotic dial and Gold. Rolex too expensive

[@shaf1485h]

Rolex daytona ss is impossible to buy at retail price.

[@andrei2023]

Daytona is the winner 🥇

[@MrRoyck10]

The Rolex appears more superior like a rabbit is to a rat!

[@Watchatete]

Check out the 6263 in 14K Gold perfect Daytona @prideandpinion. Absolutely worth a look or two.

[@RootBeerGMT]

Big omega fan-but those bullnose models are pretty goofy.

[@Daytona89]

The Omega looks like a Toy
