I don't think that any of these lists are written for agreement.
Interesting line up. |

Ha, no 126720 VTNR? Obviously a faulty list!
Had mine less than a day, long enough to know it's a strong contender for #1! 116710BLNR, yes definitely worthy. No 126710BLRO? Are they mad? Anyway, all great watches and fun reading. |

For me, a pepsi GMT, any generation, is the most iconic one.

Can’t take that seriously when the best version of the watch doesn’t even get a mention.

Good article but leaving off the modern day 126710 BLRO is a huge miss.

16710 for me. It introduced the jump hour hand feature with the 3185 caliber movement which greatly adds to the GMT's versatility.

Despite me owning a 116710LN, the clear best GMT in my mind is the 16710 Pepsi. 5 digit Rolexes really had the charm of looking great (I'd argue even better) when they are obviously worn with dings/scratches and faded bezels.
Ceramics with PCLs have this weird dichotomy where the bezel keeps looking like a new watch but the PCLs get all scratched up with wear. Ends up looking like a dressy watch the owner didn't take care of properly. |

While the Pepsi or Batman is more modern, the simplicity of the ceramic 116710LN watch appeals to me.

Which is why the jubilee is best for the modern GMT. I’d love one for my 116710LN. |
