Great White GMT
Here is a pic of one of the best watches out there in my humble opinion. I purchased this thinking that it would satisfy my cravings for a "new" watch. I have had this in my top three most wanted watch list for awhile. However every time I see a pic of a Speedy Pro I think that I should sell this and put it towards my true dream watch. What do you guys think, sell it and get the Speedy or keep it and lust after a Speedy for a while longer?

First of all, congrats, I'm a big fan of that watch. If you sell it and get the moon watch, soon enough you will find another "true grail". Keep this and save for the speedmaster is what I would have done.
In many ways I think the pre-Bond hands SMP are one of the finest looking watches Omega has produced. |

If it is in good shape keep it. They are getting harder to find. Save up for your Speedy.

Yes a great watch from Omega,was going to buy one at one time but couldnt find one for love nor money. I would keep it as they are quite rare.

The gmt great white is an underrated piece ,and definitely holds its value. I have seen it for 1500 to 2k the past few years, everyone I have found for sale is either missing the box and papers or the bezel is beat up. Great piece!!!

Keep it and get a Speedy later. I bought my Great White BNIB in 2004 and I still wear it from time to time. It is still a very handsome watch and I'm keeping this for a bit.
