GMTIIC looks best in my opinion.

I went with the new Sub c too, if it were between the GMT IIc and the older sub the GMT IIC would get the nod.

New Sub c has everything going for it, classic look with modern updates:

As a TT GMTII owner I voted for the Sub!

Somehow for SS the Sub looks better than the GMTII! I think that it is because somehow the platinum numerals on the bezel make it look busier than the gold on the TT bezel whereas the Sub has a less busy bezel. Perhaps the gold on my TT is a little mellower, which blends better with the black and that might be why I prefer it.

My preference is:

TT GMTII ~ TT LB Sub > TT LN Sub > SS LN Sub > SS GMTII

Both are VERY nice! But I personally like the GMT best. One I like best with the new style case. I think the bezel is fine. Just wish it moved in small increments like the old one.

For me the GMT by far. The Sub is a watch that I do not care to own.
