Hello all, I feel like its time to purchase a new watch. I came here for advise when I bought my Pam 111 and now I am here once again. I want to pick up the GMT Pepsi or a Sub-C, but theres a little catch. If I go with the GMT I will pick it up without selling the Pam. If I go with the Sub-C i would have to sell the Pam to cover most of the watch. I love my Pam, and also the Rolex's lol.

So my question is do you think its worth dropping the Pam for the Sub-C or just pick up the GMT and have both the Pam and GMT?

Pick up the GMT as they are no longer in production. You can buy the Sub-C later...this way you still keep the beloved Pam 111. Pepsi GMT

Agree with this plan!

2 is better than 1. I used to have dreams about the Pepsi, seriously, DREAMS. Now that I have it, all is well in the world of Rolex and the CPT. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1363544272.328043.jpg

My vote also goes for keeping the watch you have and enjoy and picking up the GMT Pepsi. I wear a Pepsi everyday and thoroughly enjoy owning and wearing the GMT.....so good luck with your decision and let us know what you decide to do!!!

Keep the 111 and have a Pepsi.

p_mcgee · 18 March 2013, 04:23 AM

easy, unless you are a diver get the GMT

I rather like the Pepsi GMT. It wears comfortably and the old-style case is as big as I need to go. Also, the "luxe" aspect of current models is not why I got into Rolex.

Speak to DavidSW. He will have a few in stock I can almost guarantee.

Got mine from him last week. He showed me two.

I much prefer the Subc but if you love the Pam then the Pepsi is the smart choice.

nauticajoe · 18 March 2013, 06:10 AM

Definitely the Pepsi first....keep the PAM too!

Good luck!

I would get a GMT now and buy a Sub-C at a future date.
