Which looks best?

Which looks best on my colourful wrist?

My Subtle sub / or my colourful GMT!?

Would love to hear your thoughts!

Sorry about the glove in the second pic it’s the only one with similar lighting as the first!

Hope you’re all staying safe and healthy





P.s

Please keep your negative comments about my tattoos to yourself. Times r tough and I’m fragile haha!

Cheers

Both look great but that Pepsi is really popping! Nice pieces!

Colorful GMT. I think the blue and red bezels are more interesting to look at than the all black bezel. I also never tire of looking at my Pepsi. The colors get me every time.

GMT looks better to me. Can we see pictures of the tattoo, too?

Well the tattoos play a huge roll on your question. The Pepsi blends and feels like home on your multi color wrist. The all black Sub just stands out too much and it actually interferes with the flow.
Pepsi is picture perfect on your wrist. The Sub is just a nice watch that looks out of place.

Actually love the ink plan to get something similar on my watch forearm also. Both work but I like the Pepsi a lot better.

I often agree with this

But sometimes I feel like the Pepsi is a little too colourful, and it clashes with all of the rest of the colour.

Where as the sub being out of place really makes you focus on the watch itself

I think they both look great.
Probably would give it to the Pepsi by a nudge, however the watches are positioned slightly different in relation to the tattoos, which gives a more favorable surround to the Pepsi.

Sub. The Pepsi looks like it's designed for a pimp.

Not a huge SS Pepsi fan here, and I own a hulk, but on your wrist the Pepsi looks really great.

Unless you have the tattoos redone in black and white I would go with the Pepsi.

Both look great but I would vote for the GMT as I think it pops more against the tattoos

I've got a heavily tatted arm (not my watch arm), but I think I'm in the minority here when I say the plainer Sub looks way better... It stands out against your tatts. I prefer this look.

They both look great! Probably two of the best for your wrist!
If I had to pick one I would say Pepsi.

The Pepsi looks stunning on your wrist but if i will pick, the Sub works the trick for me just so I can focus more on the watch...great inks too!
