Some of you may recall an earlier post when i told yo i was gettig a 16800 sub. well i picked the beauty up last night, i thought he would be lonley by himself so i got a friend for him while i was in a buying mood.
which one do you guys prefer.

regards sean.

tandrup · 15 February 2008, 04:32 AM

Oh man - they are both nice. I am sure they will keep each other company. Great choices!

crimscrem · 15 February 2008, 04:34 AM

It's funny how hard it is to just buy one.

Great looking watches.

fear · 15 February 2008, 04:34 AM

Jonesing for GMT!!!!

mike · 15 February 2008, 04:35 AM

NICE!!!

Two wonderful examples! Great looking dials and hands. Man that would be a tough call. I think you'll have to send them to me so I can evaluate them.

Seriously great score on two classics! An instant vintage collection. Just doesn't get any better than that.

diversified · 15 February 2008, 04:39 AM

Now thats the way to do it!

Dan Pierce · 15 February 2008, 04:41 AM

Sean,
Good for ya'.

I love them both but have a special fondness for the GMT.

And I really love tha Rolex watch stand!

Enjoy,
dP

JBat · 15 February 2008, 04:49 AM

Love 'em both! Very nice daily double you have there.

Great pick up and I hope you enjoy them in the best of health!

GoldenBear · 15 February 2008, 05:48 AM

I love them both. I have the TT & SS Subs but am strongly considering adding a Pepsi/Coke before its too late. If they go ceramic, it's a done deal.

SPACE-DWELLER · 15 February 2008, 05:50 AM

Both are stunning watches! Congrats on the 16800!

You ask us which of them we'd prefer?? Tough one! Both are winners! But personally, I'd tend to prefer the GMT Pepsi!

frostie · 15 February 2008, 05:51 AM

That was a great move

f16570 · 15 February 2008, 06:14 AM

NO preference here either would do. Wear in good health.

kcmo · 15 February 2008, 07:14 AM

Very cool, congrats!

jamesthejeweller · 15 February 2008, 07:37 AM

Awesome choices, i have a 16618 18k sub and 16710 GMT Red/Black. they are awesome! do you alternate the days that you wear them?, i usually wear the 18k on Monday Friday and Sat and the SS GMT on Tuesday, Thursday and sundays. wear in good health ! awesome!

davidwatts · 15 February 2008, 07:54 AM

I love 'em both - Move that sub bezel on one click

DavidHasselhoff · 15 February 2008, 07:56 AM

Great looking pair!

Bobareno · 15 February 2008, 08:08 AM

Both look great, but I like the classic GMT best.
Thanks for the pictures!

topcat30093 · 15 February 2008, 01:10 PM

Congratulations on your new watches, if I had to choice it would be the Sub. Buts that only because I have already got a GMT

SSD · 15 February 2008, 11:12 PM

Sub or GMT. Sub or GMT? Sub or GMT... Hmmmmmmmmmmm

Wait, I got it! The answer is: YES!

An awesome brace of Rolex there, congradulations!

redshirt1957 · 15 February 2008, 11:18 PM

Which one do I like best? Both.

buz-lh · 15 February 2008, 11:19 PM

CPTL · 15 February 2008, 11:34 PM

colemanitis · 15 February 2008, 11:54 PM

bgriz · 15 February 2008, 11:56 PM

Terry Newton · 16 February 2008, 12:01 AM

I like the Sub. I have the TT GMT. Heresy, I know, but I can't get past the Pepsi dial. It's a Rolex though. You can't go wrong
