      Really hard to choose indeed. But I think I would go for AP ROC.

            Some forums say that ROC is a "piggyback chrono" though, anyone knows the details of this?

            I know the Daytona is a pure chrono mvt...

                  Daytona without a doubt

                  Aesthetically, I find the AP ROC classier and the Daytona sportier so I think that's down to a matter of personal preference. I also think the finishing on the AP is of a slightly higher level then the Daytona

                  However, what really tips the scale towards the Daytona for me is the movement.

                  Movement wise while the AP ROC's 2385 is prettier, the Daytona's 4130 imho is the better movement.

                  For starters the 4130 has 72 hours of power reserve compared to the 2385's measly 40 hours. The 4130 also had 44 jewel movement, oscillates at 28,800 bph and has only 290 parts. The 2385 has 37 jewels, beats at 21,600 and has 304 parts.

                  The 4130 is a chronograph movement that is clearly manufactured for ruggedness and precision.

                        AP ROO - it just stands out among the crowd. Go for the AP forge carbons and Daytona is not there for comparison.
