Rolex Sub 16610 or GMT Master II
I love the look of both of these watches, upgrading from a 14060M, yet I am struggling which to go for, love the Sub but the change ability o the GMT bezels for a different look is pulling my strings also.
Have any of you ever agonised over this. |

Well the rational part of my mind would say GMT because:
1) It has an extra function 2) With the black bezel you have the same Submariner look 3) You can choose 3 bezel and 2 bracelets so basically 6 different watch. 4) Submariner is the most popular fake Rolex model Anyway you cannot go wrong if you choose between these two models, and if you get bored of one, you can just trade it for the other. I had the same dilemma for months, and I ended up buying both :) |

I still agonize over it. I wear an LV. However, I had a superb F Pepsi that I still miss. One of these days, another Pepsi will come my way, and it will be mine ... oh, yes ... it will be mine.

I'd say give the GMT a go.
Since you've had the black dial ND Sub I'd say Coke GMT.

are you keeping the 14060M or trading towards one of the new watches you mentioned
If not, go with the sub, if you are keeping the 14060M, it's easy go GMT gmtandcigars.jpg subside.jpg |

I wouldn't view selling a 14060M for a 16610 or 16710 as an upgrade. I am lucky to have all three models in my collection and I would advise that you consider holding onto your Sub and saving for one of the others.
Good luck. |

You cant upgrade the classic 14060 , but if you want an different look go for the 16710. If it was an option I would keep the 14060 and save for an 16710.
