GMT fat lady or gmt with 3185?
I like the uniqueness of the fat lady. Is the movement of the fat lady that far behind the 3185 that it isn't worth buying it?

Not at all! The 16760 is a very unique piece. I'd love to have one myself

Get the one that feels right when it's on your wrist. They ALL run well.

Yep. There are 2 special GMTs in my opinion. The 16760 and the 16700. Both are watches an enthusiast would own

Don't worry too much about the movement. The Fat Lady is a beauty. I have owned one, and still miss it.

i vote fat lady.
i flipped from a 16610 to a 16760 and barely felt the difference in heft. the slightly thicker case, bezel, and crown guards felt great on the fat lady. i had an opportunity to handle a more modern gmtii, and it felt a bit light. if you like the feel of a sub, fat lady all the way! |

I'm wearing my Fat Lady as we speak! Couldn't be happier with it! Unique piece of GMT history!
