BLRO is the right answer.

Stainless be damned. The white gold GMT is still a nice watch.

Smurf for me and wait for the jubilee Pepsi.

A smurf can be had for a significant discount to that Pepsi, than you can roll the savings into a Pepsi jubilee.

Go for broke at this point, Sam.

I notice you asked for comments on each, and not just to pick my favorite, so...

The white gold GMT is gonna go down in history as a legendary Rolex model. If you have any sort of soft spot in your heart for a Rolex GMT Master, then this is a huge opportunity to bag a keeper.

A yellow gold Submariner belongs on the beach or at the pool, looking I-don't-give-a-damn cool on your perfectly suntanned wrist as you sip an ice-cold Pacifico from the bottle. Oh, and that version of the blue is way better than the sunburst.

No diamonds on a Submariner, please.

The white gold Submariner can't pull off the beach like its yellow gold cousin does, but it's more versatile. I can see that one working better with business attire, and extraordinarily well in stark, snowy winter conditions.

Still, that GMT is bound to a historically important Rolex one day...

Have fun choosing!

I don't know your history in terms of ownership of these models (it sounds from the comments that you may have had some of these in the past). Maybe I've been seeing to many pictures of the new red and blue ss GMT and so the wow factor has fallen off for me, but if I were going to get one of these I'd get the blue white gold sub. That watch is so killer!!

I'd get the WG BLRO, if you're lucky, or dress shabbily, people will think it's the hot SS.

🤣 perfect! Kidding aside, I find the WG BLRO the most appealing. I don’t do YG and would not care to have a diamond dial, so that leaves the WG pieces. I like them so much I have them both. If you’ve flipped the 619 twice, go for the BLRO before prices climb even higher. They have gone up $3k in the last 60 days. I’ve been watching.
