deep sea!!

Redrubicon · 19 June 2010, 06:53 AM

DSSD....I think....

Chris B · 19 June 2010, 07:03 AM

My penchant is with the GMT, so right on so many levels

ess45 · 19 June 2010, 07:16 AM

I agree with the majority.

Saxon007 · 19 June 2010, 07:18 AM

The DSSD looks a little out of proportion to me.

GMT looks great.

TattooedGQ · 19 June 2010, 07:18 AM

The GMTII is just a beautiful classic watch...the DSSD...a bit too pronounced for my tastes.

RRGHOST1 · 19 June 2010, 07:54 AM

I voted for the Deepsea as have a Pepsi GMT, but to be honest both look great.

mtrunner · 19 June 2010, 08:04 AM

Pepsi gets my vote.

nauticajoe · 19 June 2010, 08:16 AM

They both look great! I would certainly wear both in rotation.

cody p · 19 June 2010, 09:09 AM

to be fair, close up wrist shots tend to distort perspective. need pics from farther away to give a proper appraisal.

KJacques · 19 June 2010, 10:00 AM

GMT looks good, but the Deep Sea is disproportionately huge on your wrist and looks silly.

inLine4 · 19 June 2010, 10:25 AM

Gotta love the pepsi!

andrew79 · 19 June 2010, 12:06 PM

Gmt !!!

paverman · 19 June 2010, 12:11 PM

No doubt, the GMT looks better.

psv · 19 June 2010, 12:11 PM

Sorry, don't know the size of your wrist but that DSSD looks gigantic. GMT is much more balanced. The accurate compromise would be the GMT IIC with the maxi dial/hands and case.

Chipmunk · 19 June 2010, 12:19 PM

GMT is a perfect on your wrist

wholesaleneon · 19 June 2010, 12:38 PM

those pictures are no good for a size comparision. Shave your arm about halfway up so we can get a more accurate view.

htc8p · 19 June 2010, 01:52 PM

gmt2 is such an original rolex

rpryan55 · 19 June 2010, 02:03 PM

I really get the indecision here - both are great watches. I have neither, so I consider myself completely unbiased. I also like the DSSD - I think the lack of symmetry makes it an interesting piece. But I've got to say that the Pepsi gets my vote - its history and the way it looks with jeans overcomes my fascination with the Deep Sea.

Whichever way you go, you've already shown you have superb taste.

fc3s2k · 19 June 2010, 02:05 PM

Pepsi!!!!!

urwtdrm · 19 June 2010, 02:10 PM

Such manly fur you have! The DSSD for sure!

Thanks guys for your responses

I have to say i am really surprised with the results because i have a big wrist (7.5") and thought the DSSD suits me better

Maybe these two pics show what I am talking about

JJ Irani · 19 June 2010, 04:31 PM

Actually, they both look good; but it's the 18 mm height of the DSSD that has always turned me off.

Other than that, it's an amazingly superb watch - the best in Rolex engineering.

Woody · 19 June 2010, 08:09 PM

I think the DSSD looks to be a more proportional fit on your wrist - I did own a GMT II at one stage (after several years of looking for a suitable example) and it was by far my most disappointing Rolex experience - I flipped it after a couple of months as I just couldn't get a comfortable fit and for some reason it seemed to me to look small on my 6.75 inch wrist...............perhaps that was because I also owned an SD at the time

topcat30093 · 19 June 2010, 08:12 PM

Without a doubt the GMTII
Sorry to say, but the DSSD just looks too big on your wrist.
That is why I never bought one.

Howie · 19 June 2010, 08:24 PM

GMTII for sure ..
