Got a chance to locate and try on my two grails. Wanted to solicit opinions which one looks better on my wrist. I have 6.5 inch wrists, and am 6'2".

Not a fan of TT Daytona, but the size fits you better. The AP 41mm case sits more like 43-44mm, which bugs me and I have bigger wrist than yours.
I just hope AP goes back to 39mm or even 40mm (heard a rumor about this being the new RO size, but nothing to back it yet)

The Daytona fits you better but the RO is def doable. The 39mm version might fit a touch better but you can rock the 41, no worries.
That said, I'd go with the AP any day of the week. Not even close.

That two-tone Daytona is hideous! Many people will think its fake and consequently think you are a fake. Get a SS version.
That RO is too big for you. Get a smaller AP.

Kinda like why older guys like sweater vests?
Though this one is even worse as the white deal + gold looks bad with his skin tone too.
You must be some kind of mentalist - I also like wearing vests. I am only 44, is this old?

Well I'm old (AARP membership old), I don't like sweater vests or sweaters, and I hated the two-tones back in the 80's when I was young!
As I'm in my early 30's and I feel old. yeah 44 is old! I've also not worn a sweater in 20 years due to you know....I'm not and old man and I don't get cold inside!
But the point of that was about how the watch didn't match his skin tone which isn't odd to say and is something most people deal with on gold.
Glad I didn't offend! I actually like that watch just in a tray (not on someone but just to look at), not for me at all, but ok. It didn't look good there.
Black dial and maybe rose gold? That might work for your skin if you REALLY want gold and two tone.
