My GMTwosome….

Still pinching myself at the recent addition to my small collection of the WG 126719BLRO.

Was just comparing it side by side with my other GMT the 126711CHNR

Thought I’d share some pics

Nice pics, the WG GMT is awesome!

I also remember you were a Sub guy at the beginning, now you're GMT all in

Congrats! That WG GMT is special

Ever think about adding a SS GMT? Maybe a LN or BLNR? That would be an incredible 3 GMT collection

Congrats.
I have a WG Daytona that I am struggling to read these days. The WG GMT is the one I have my eye on for a trade. I have a TT yellow gold version of the GMT and love it.
Wear in good health.

Hi

Yes - I am still a Sub guy at heart - just don’t have one in the collection at the moment.

I have an SD43 as a fill in but a Sub will return at some point

Cheers

Yes - definitely a BLNR.

I am on ‘the list’ with my AD for it amongst others I’m interested in

Cheers

Cheers Brian.

Never at the beginning of this crazy watch collecting journey did I ever think I’d be fortunate enough to own a such an amazing piece.

It really is something else in the flesh, I know the meteorite version is the darling of the internet at the moment, but I really feel this is currently massively under appreciated.

I couldn’t be happier tbh

Thanks again

Something special about a precious metal GMT.

Yes agree - difficult to get excited now about SS once you’ve experienced full PM which is something I never thought I’d hear myself say!

Thanks

Just picked up my Rootbeer last week... it appears the high polish gold picks up micro scratches fairly easy? Just curious what others have experienced.

Yep. All polished gold center links as well as ss cl pick up lots of scratches.
