Nicely done...that is one of the best looking two tones in the inventory, IMO.

I agree. Aesthetically, I like the Submariner much more than the GMT, however when it comes to two-tone (and solid gold), for whatever reason the GMT wears it better (in my opinion).

Also, on the topic of two-tones, the AD had the rose gold Yachtmaster in stock. This is another watch I should hate on paper because Yachtmasters rank as some of my least favourite watches period, however I was very captivated by the watch. Had it been priced similar to the GMT, I would have most likely opted to purchase the Yachtmaster instead.

Congrats! Great TT. Up next, that YM. And then of course the full yellow gold blue Sub a little further down the road.

Have to agree with the OP on this one, I was never a TT fan until I tried this one, I actually prefer it to my BLNR.

Local Grey marketer has one with green face on it. A customer wanted the black dial on his 116718...
