Hard to say they are even authentic in those pics.
But you answered your question about looks - in other words what looks best to you is what you should get. The GMT and the Sub have different functions so all other things being equal - go with your preference.

Those pictures look a little sketchy to me....They raise a red flag as to being authentic. However to aswer your question....Try both models on at your local AD and choose the one that looks best on your wrist. Try not to think of resale value. Buy the watch because you like it

from you sig, sounds like you already have a blue sub wg? if so, why dont you go for the GMT, so you would have 2 different watch with 2 different function, and looks.

Assuming box, papers and warranty card are all in place, I'd say blue sub. Despite the fact that the green GMT is a very unique piece, I think it may not fit many outfits/suits. Both are fantastic though. you may get bored after a while of having the GMT

If you already have the WG Sub then I'd recommend the YG GMTIIc. They are the perfect pair.

Certainly your choice in the end. As for me, I like the look of the Sub better but prefer the functionality of the GMT since I'm a traveler and not a diver. Not a clue as to better resale value.

First of all, welcome to TRF. If you already have a Sub go for the GMT.

Well, IMHO I think the blue and gold looks ordinary and the black and gold looks classy.
If you're getting a watch with blue, it should be a stainless steel watch, like the GMT II BLNR. |
