dont know if srs but… I realise its a tudor, but isnt the point of this range (black bay or whatever) meant to be like tributes to old rolexes/tudors? seems strange to me that tudor have made a "tribute" to a watch they dont technically make.
Menswear: Which watch?

lucky man - I never got a wedding present from my Mrs
Agree on Daytona - also Paddy McGuinness and Michael McIntyre have them.
Does it need to be brand new? Look at used Blancpain - seem to take a hit on residuals. Personally would like the dark knight model as my next watch.
Good luck with the hunt

plus 43mm would look massive on my delicate wrists 
that was harsh, sorry, but the bapex is a pretty inexpensive toy watch really, a "replica/homage/parody" of the bamford re-worked rolexes. Tudor, with this range anyway, is taking elements of classic rolex and tudor models and "re-releasing" them, which is something rolex could never really do with actual rolex watches. My point is why is the bamford blackout submariner getting done by tudor, when it isnt a watch that rolex make. I do see the point in tudor, i just dont understnad why they have done this model.
so mrs wants to get me a watch for wedding present! i have always wanted a daytona but have tried one on twice and not been blown away, any other ideas?
already have a submariner, brietling navitimer IWC portifino. wanted the daytona but thinking daydate / datejust? any other ideas? doesnt have to be rolex

You probably already know but current Daytona is now out of production and has been replaced with this:
Apparently there are already ridiculous waiting lists though.
Sounds like she has a pretty hefty budget if you are considering a day-date. You've got a pretty good variation already and any of the models you've mentioned would slot in nicely. Within that price range I'd go for an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak. If you're in London best thing to do is just have a wander round Selfridges watch hall then down Bond St and have a look in Wempe, Watch Club and Burlington Arcade and see what takes your fancy.
