I found myself more attracted to the TT version as the yellow gold contrasts with black dial/bezel. However, I already have a GMT so hard for me to justify another one.

Thank you! I also love the TT version. I ultimately decided on SS for the versatility, but I haven’t ruled out the TT version at some point in my life. :)

That's really sharp. I have the 16710LN so I'm familiar with black bezel but I have to say, the half gray is really a nice idea. I like it a lot.

Thanks! I’ve heard others have this issue on the GMT jubilee models.

Rolex should add the new, smaller glidelock, which are on the oysterflex Daytonas, to the other sports models that still use the easylink. The clasp size is smaller than the sub (thankfully) and I’d guess similar to the size of the easylink, and it offers more adjustability.

Of course they should but I wouldn’t hold my breath
I always needed the ez popped out and it was still slightly off balance for my 6.6. Oyster no issues. It’s all so personal on shape, size etc. clearly GL clasp would solve all this but they like us to suffer

I didn't really love that watch when they released it but seeing photos like this has really changed my opinion. Looks great. Especially on jubilee.

These pictures are fantastic! Thank you for posting them. When I was in Italy, I saw this GMT on a train from Naples to Sorrento and was completely captivated by it.

It's really underrated compared to the other SS GMTs.

I think the jubilee is the sticking point, at least per my AD. Any GMT on jubilee seems to be pretty difficult to get at the moment (still).

Congrats Steve! Really loved this one when I saw it in person. The jubilee is special on these GMTs and you dont need the vibrant bezel colors that can be a little overpowering at times. This version is really versatile. The GMT line sets itself apart from the other sport models with the jubilee bracelet.
