Tt gmt c

Hi guys....

I recently visited a Rolex AD in Singapore just to see what they had in stock. I was amazed to see that they had on hand all the sports model's in all three ranges...SS, TT, Gold (including the Daytona).

And then I saw the TT GMT C and I really fell in love with that watch! It is very strange cause I only have SS in my collection and never really even gave it a thought to buy a TT model. However after looking at the TT GMT I am now actually considering trading my SS GMT C for the TT model!

Just curious if anyone has had similar experience with the Rolex line up?

Oh and pls do post some pictures of the TT GMT if you have.

Cheers!

Here's my SS GMT...

The two tone Rolex's are beautiful. Take a look at some of JJ's pics of his new GMT IIc and you'll see what I'm talking about. I don't blame anyone for going TT.

While on vacation in Mexico last February was the first time I laid my eyes on the TT GMT-C. I could not take my eyes off it. The boutique in Cancun had more Rolex selection than I've ever seen.

Amazing pics for one great watch, congrats! If one day I decide to buy one Rollie TT, will be GMT or Sub.

The TT is really nice . Every time I see JJs I have to control myself not to sell my steel and get the TT.

I actually like the bracelet better than the watch, so I use it with my DATONA, too.

just tell me which Cathay flight you're up front on so I can avoid it as the beauty of that watch is sure to detract from the job in hand

Get it....but on top of the SS model...you will miss the SS IMHO

I've had both the SS and the TT, and I really miss the TT...

Thanks guys for all your input... That TT sure is a beauty...

Now I must decide between the TT GMT or my first Panerai watch!

Cheers!
