Hi all,

Noob here

This will be my first buy. Can anyone tell what the deference is between these two watches, other than the price?

Thanks

don't quote me, but I believe that the seconds at 6 are time bombs and need graphite treatment and a ton of other work to keep them alive....

they literally implode.

 

the seconds at 9 are fine.

 

so don't buy the bomb.

 

please correct me if I'm wrong guys....

Movement. Silix one is 25j and the timeshops one has 29j 28,800bph movement.

I would not recommend a Daytona with running seconds at the 6:00 position. @9 is ok to go.

My heart was set on a silver and gold white face Daytona, So this one with the seconds @ 9 would be the way to go. and wont blow my wrist off lol? http://www.silix-pri...roducts_id=1875

 

Thanks guys for replying to my post.

Only down thing on sec at 9 is that the spacing of the chrono's is off.

If you can live with that go for sec at 9

You could considder a cheap 21J chrono spacing is better, down thing the big second hand runs all the time.

There is no perfect rep Daytona in modern versions.

Thanks for all the help.

If you run a search on different movements it will explain the differences very well. I did that a while back and found it incredibly helpful.

Hi sardonix, One more question, is the weight of the 21J the same as the real Rolo? Edited December 15, 2012 by Nel's

[sardonix 1]

The steel version gen is only 140 grams
