You're welcome Nas

Mike is a league all of his own and we're just fortunate he shares his knowledge with us. He's a good guy His pics ain't too shabby either

But anyway if I had your collection I'd be very proud of it. Also of what's on your list when you acquire them

GMT IIs may be discontinued, but they are still for sale all over the place. I wonder if the prices dealers are asking will hold through these economic rough waters . . . ?

You have a beautiful collection.

Not to lie down in front of anyone's parade, but there may be more Z- and M-Series GMT IIs yet to hit the market. Ben Brdige and Polacheck have them here in L.A. Co., and I know of another AD who expects to receive "a bunch" that he ordered in Oct. '07 because of it being a discontinued model. Collectors/investors may be disappointed.

That notwithstanding, I love the watch and may even buy another.

Great watch. You can also change the bezel insert and make it look different. I've got the Coke on mine and love it. Congrats.

You guys are killing me with the GMTs. As much as I love my Sub, I would really like to get a GMT to go with it someday.

Sigh...

Gotta tell ya... I thought my Bluesy was the best and couldn't be beaten....then started looking at photos of GMT's....especially that Damn photo of Dan's with the Jubilee band.....got the sickness..bought a nice Coke GMT II.....about a month ago.....and it hasn't left my wrist since. All my other watches ( see sigi list ) are pissed as hell....locked away in a safe dark place..and probably won't be wound up for months!! The 16710 just feels RIGHT...very close to my EXPY...but then again different....almost like second skin! Got a nice gen Pepsi insert...but I'm having a hard time changing the insert without taking it off my WRIST!!
