GMT II C but already looking to buy the HULK(Green) SUB as I cant stop thinking about it... Is it possible to love 2 women the same???? haha

gmtm2 · 15 February 2013, 05:29 PM

no doubt!!!

jackruff · 15 February 2013, 08:44 PM

Both fanstastic but too much the same for me to own both... Do you need multiple time zones... there is the answer........

Lucky777 · 15 February 2013, 09:01 PM

Keep your SS SubC and save for the TTGMT2C. The TT GMT2C is gorgeous. I think you would regret selling the sub eventually.

brian8121 · 15 February 2013, 09:04 PM

SubC for me.

And Pepsi 1675 GMT.

superbry · 15 February 2013, 09:30 PM

I am drawn to the GMT2C more than the subc. Only thing I want from the subC is its glidelock mechanism. But i'd still pick the gmt2c

dawgfan#1 · 16 February 2013, 12:36 AM

Sub c. 4 sho

amvd · 16 February 2013, 01:12 AM

in SS I prefer sub
in TT GMTc & SUBc LB

xxthe_remedyxx · 16 February 2013, 05:19 AM

Having both I have to go with the GMT :)

Solo118 · 16 February 2013, 05:24 AM

Keep the Sub. If you save up and wait you can find a nice price on a pre-owned GMT-C

PHBouche · 16 February 2013, 09:27 AM

Gmt for me it's my first rolex. But it's a close call.

nauticajoe · 16 February 2013, 09:29 AM

I prefer the SubC.

The clasp is a winner.

Or just get the GMT TT now. Not worth just swapping those two SSs imho, just too similar for all the hassle.

Psmith · 16 February 2013, 10:20 AM

I think this poll will simply tell the OP that these are both very popular watches...

I say keep one and save for the other - even if it means selling the whisky!

FrankNYC · 16 February 2013, 11:33 AM

Although I don't use the Sub when I SCUBA, I use it to time things all the time. In this regard, I would say that the Sub function is more practical for me.

floater156 · 16 February 2013, 11:55 AM

Glidelock for the win

There is your answer!

Any particular reason you don't use the SubC for scuba? Many divers here use it as a back up to computer.

FrankNYC · 16 February 2013, 12:01 PM

It's a statistical dead-heat. Looks like there's no clear winner--yet.

DKY1107 · 16 February 2013, 10:33 PM

I went thru the same thing you did. I knew for my first Rolex it was gonna have to be the iconic Sub, so of course I got the SubC. That Glidelock is a thing of beauty. I remembered that same day when I got my SubC that I kept looking at the GMTIIC as well. I don't know what it is but it's something about the new GMTIIC with its ceramic bezel and PCLs that just tugs at me. It was tough to resist the temptation but I had to remind myself why I was there in the first place.

As happy as I was to finally get a Rolex, I was still thinking about the GMTIIC, and let me tell you it was on my mind constantly. Finally, and with almost no surprise, I ended up getting the GMTIIC as well and was glad I did! I have a feeling you're gonna do the same.

nick c · 16 February 2013, 11:25 PM

SUB C

warrior · 17 February 2013, 12:24 AM

sub. Looks classier to me without the busyness of the GMT bezel. Also Prefer the brushed bracelet.

mjclark32 · 17 February 2013, 12:54 AM

Congrats, stick with your gut

I use my dive computer. My back-up is my dive buddy. Also, I don't want the watch getting scratched by the sand. I had a 16610 that I flipped a few years ago; I used it to SCUBA a few times and the sand scratched it up.

Keyser Soze · 17 February 2013, 01:02 AM

GMT Master was my vote, though if it were me (and it was recently) I'd go with the 16710.

Goodwill63 · 17 February 2013, 01:57 AM

I have both and like each one equally. The gmt IIc wears more comfortably though.

patb · 17 February 2013, 03:02 AM

It's all about what you like. It doesn't matter one bit what anyone else thinks about your watch. It only has to make you happy.

KBM · 17 February 2013, 03:16 AM

How often do you travel? If not that much, I find the crowded bezel of the GMT a little bit less attractive than the Sub's to justify. Both are great, but the Sub has such a beautiful minimalistic design...

FrankNYC · 17 February 2013, 12:46 PM

Just got back from the city. I dropped the wife off to go shopping with her niece and I went walking around to look at watches. Stopped-off at Tourneau to take a look at the GMT IIC and, I have to say, I think I like my SubC better! The GMT bezel was too busy, almost distracting.

In photos, the GMT looks nicer--probably bec when it's blown up you see the green writing and hands...but in person, the Sub is def. nicer.

DreambreaX · 17 February 2013, 11:07 PM

Gmt

impalass · 17 February 2013, 11:32 PM

I voted Submariner, personally I'm a time everything character and could not live without the timing feature of the Sub bezel.

Happen to like the look of the Submariner better, but the GMT II is a winner too, save up and own both, win, win, imho.
