It would depend on a lot of things for me:

Do I want a diver or a GMT?
What else is in the collection?
Do I want a daily wearer or a rotation watch?

Both are great choices, but this is where my thought process starts on the two.

Good luck deciding

TswaneNguni · 27 May 2021, 01:46 AM

GMT on oyster

Thats just classic,in its newest form .
Much prefer it over the jubilee version .

JRT · 27 May 2021, 01:52 AM

2021 GMT BLRO definitely. Besides, GMT on the oyster bracelet beats that on the Jubilee version.

Also have steel AP RO, and there’s YG DayDate coming

imsayingthough · 27 May 2021, 02:01 AM

GMT and this isnt close.

SeaDweller50 · 27 May 2021, 02:03 AM

Jc

tgyberg · 27 May 2021, 02:08 AM

I like the JC because of the size. If they were the same size, I wouldn't be able to decide!

SeattlePNWguy · 27 May 2021, 02:19 AM

If you can afford it/swing it, get both. I've had the JC for almost 7 years and still love it. The BLRO on oyster is simply stunning - can't wait to get one.

Snipe10 · 27 May 2021, 02:20 AM

Deep Sea for me too because of it's size and bulk, it's a beast! The black one is my daily watch.

szabo_martin · 27 May 2021, 02:41 AM

Neither is a wrong choice, but its two completely different watches. Not everyone can pull off the size of the DSSD. Personally I lost interest in the GMT when it became the ultimate hype watch and I love my JC DSSD but its each to their own.

Seeing this I'd get the BLRO without hesitation

GMT. I wore the DSSD for a few days and it was too thick for me but it's all personal preference.

shinne · 27 May 2021, 06:32 AM

Pepsi.

lovewatches1987 · 28 May 2021, 01:41 AM

Brushed links on JC will probably show less scratches than polished central links on GMT

travisb · 28 May 2021, 02:28 AM

JC DSSD without hesitation.
The GMT will win the popular vote.
They’re both great watches but the JC looks and feels more special to me.

I know most Rolex enthusiasts are enamored with the various GMT iterations. I will take my D-Blue .

BNA/LION · 28 May 2021, 04:16 AM

GMT Pepsi Oyster 2021

alphadweller · 28 May 2021, 04:20 AM

Pepsi wins hands down. To me, the JC is trying too hard to impress. Bigger, thicker and heavier is not always better, even for a diver. Yes, of course it's a good watch, but not one I'd want to own and wear. All down to personal taste.

greg19 · 28 May 2021, 05:00 AM

I would choose solely on size/fit and I'd take the Pepsi 100% of the time.

Alfa2109 · 28 May 2021, 05:10 AM

I'm a Pepsi on jubilee, not oyster, guy -- and love my DSSD JC! So it's the DSSD for me.

It has a 3900m depth rating. Its not trying to impress anything, its engineering is what's impressing. I get not everyone wants a large watch but its function over form on that one

garyk · 28 May 2021, 05:49 AM

My 116660 became my favorite Rolex. Not the most expensive I have but just makes me smile all day when I wear it...

kscarandwatchguy · 28 May 2021, 05:59 AM

JC, I wear mine 24/7

I love the blue gradient and green writing

jcatral14 · 28 May 2021, 07:48 AM

I have a JC and I love it but if I were offered both at the same time, I would go Pepsi all day. JC are a bit easier to get get so can wait.

japenney · 28 May 2021, 09:06 AM

Have both and it's a draw. Something interesting I noticed:

Out of all the Rolex I have ever owned - and I have had platona, 116618lb etc on my wrist. No watch gets more random compliments than the JC. The thing is just such a beast on the wrist. My thoughts are that your average non-watch person doesn't really know what a Rolex looks like (size wise) up close but they know the general design of the submariner. Well the JC is like a submariner on steroids. To the non WIS it just comes off as extremely obvious and everyone seems to ask about it.

I would choose Deepsea D-blue. The ”Pepsi” is too small.
