Next PM purchase?

Looking to make a full PM purchase and have narrowed it down to. I’ve tried them all on. The subs are extremely comfortable as well as the GMT, just a touch heavier

116619LB white gold sub blue dial
116618LN yellow gold black dial
126719BLRO white gold gmt (blue dial)

I would be wearing it frequently, both casually and formally


Current line up is 116500 white, 116655 YM, SD43

If you’re comfortable with YG....I’d go with that, being you already have white metals covered nicely.

I agree completely. The yellow gold would be unique to the collection. Yellow gold GMT would bring the most variety with a SD43 already in the collection.

Out of those, YG sub. You have the rose gold and the white metal covered.

The BLRO would be my choice as it is the most unique.

The blue dial GMT is incredible, and rarely seen. That would be my pick by far.

It'll be a toss-up between the (116619LB) white gold sub blue dial and the (126719BLRO) white gold gmt (blue dial). Probably the sub as I think the Smurf is really unique.

The white gold blue dial sub is the most unique out of your options imho

I would go with the yellow gold sub with the black dial. I went that way( five digit) and no regrets. Love the black and gold combo.

Agree with these comments. As part of your current collection, the YG sub adds a lot of variety. The BLRO is absolutely a fantastic piece in its own right, no doubt there. It’s a great problem to have

Voted GMT but really like the black and gold Sub at the moment.

I would wait for the new movement before buying a sub again though.
