the case size is the obvious difference. Have you tried both on? If you have a small wrist then the GT may suit. If you can pull off the GMT then definitely go with that. There is a couple on eBay and one is less than £4k which is a lot of watch for the money. Have you thought about going for the 8 day Reverso GMT? It is an awesome watch and also on eBay for less than £5K but remember service will be a £1k as it is complicated piece.

I have several Reversos.
You really must try them on to see how they wear on your wrist size and wrist shape, as what you think may suit, may in fact look strange. The grande is 48mm x 30mm lug to lug and is quite thick, and because of this and the rectangular shape, it can wear quite large. The grande taille is smaller at 42mm x 26mm lug to lug and a little thinner than the grande, and can still be pulled off by those with smaller wrists. Either way, you will end up with a great piece |
