Pepsi is picture perfect on your wrist. The Sub is just a nice watch that looks out of place.

Mostly agree with this. The GMT looks right at home. Though the Sub looks great too!

Personally I think 114060 beats every other Rolex model, but given your tattoos - Pepsi fits you best.

Sub, as it contrasts with your colorful tatoos.

Submariner. Unsurpassed and indispensable watch.
I don't like the red blue bezel
I don't like the jubilee
I don't need the gmt complication

The Sub stands out. The GMT gets a little lost on your colorful wrist.

The BLRO blends better while the Sub stands out a bit more. I think you have the perfect combo Andre

Would love to hear your thoughts!

Sorry about the glove in the second pic it’s the only one with similar lighting as the first!

Hope you’re all staying safe and healthy





P.s

The Sub.

It really offsets your colorful tattoos.

As much as I like the Pepsi, I think the Sub goes better with all your tats. The Pepsi kind of gets lost.

The sub minus the gloves. I personally do not like the Jubilee bracelet. I also prefer non PCLs. Just my 2 cents

Think they both look good. I’m heavily tattooed as well (packed ink down to the wrist) and recently got rid of a 116613LB. Found the sunburst dial and TT looked way too busy against the tattoos.

I think they both look great! As a fan of tattoos in general, yours look great, and I don’t look at the dial/bezel as the focal point of the watches in your particular case. (full sleeve I assume) The white metal of the bracelet, case, bezel surround, and the presence of that....makes each one look fantastic against your ink. I think it would hold true if your tattoo were B/W or color.
I think a real differential comparison would be if you were sporting two different metals like SS & YG.

Sub. The colors of the Pepsi get sort of lost with the colors on the arm. Also think the oyster works better for you than the jubilee

First off, the tattoos are dopeee. 2nd, I really want to say the black looks better, contrasting the colors on the skin, but both look great. Two of the best dailies out there.

Normally I likely would say sub.
But in your case the colors on colors look good.
