Gold (whichever of the two you like better). If you can rock it, no doubt about it. I wouldn't feel comfortable with it, but I love it!

Your 5167 is beautiful btw!

This is the perfect SS/Gold Subc/GMTc Diver/Pilot combo imho and if I was Apollo Creed and Living in America I could keep my Subc and buy the YG GMTc from your trusted sellers but prices over here mean I probably will have to sell to buy.

Both are amazing.

With the watch you walked in with, I am sure you can afford both. Its just money, you'll make more:beer:

Gold is king and I don't think its even a contest between the two. But to be practical, if you absolutely don't love the gold then you might as well buy the stainless steel because it's significantly cheaper.

Unless you go 116718, I'd take the SS GMT over the YG Sub. Better look imo.

Gold is good. If you can live with the scratches that the gold watch will collect then go for it. If you cant, then the SS is the one for you.
IMHO go for GOLD !

My Solid 18K GMT2C is amazing! GMT2C all Gold or nothing. It's the best looking and most versitile of the all gold watches. Many wondering eyes coming your way. If you want to be noticed get an all Gold watch! It's just an amazing feeling wearing one. My Explorer II 42mm is close in weight to my GMT2C and prefer wearing it over my SS Sub.

The right answer is neither - go 116718 GMT!
