If you want me to choose
I love GMT II-C, COKE & LV (OR SUB)

you should not reason every thing (if you do you wouldn't have owened 6 of these)
so you should go with what you JUST LOVE TO WEAR

Such a great collection, shame you can't keep all 6.

I would keep the IIC, the Pepsi and the SD.

Reasoning,

The IIc makes a great work watch for you.

Unworn happens once.

Versatility of the LV wins out as the diver for me.

I agree with Mike




Cheers

Keep the 16710 "M" unworn
Keep Sub LV

Not sure of the rest!
+ the SD! It's a tough decision, they are all amazing watches. You can always get another GMT 2c at a later date, or even the new Explorer 2.

Well personally I would keep at least one of the GMT-ll 16710, Subdate and Sub LV. If possible I'd keep the other GMT-ll 16710 too.

#1 Classic GMT

Sorry, I guess I should have given my reasons. Most suggest keeping one of the classic GMT's. This is very good advice I think. The Pepsi is to me the most "classic" of the GMT's. So between that one and the Coke, I prefer the Pepsi.

The GMT IIC is a current production model. It might be nice to keep it because it is a current production model... but to me... if you regret selling this in the future it is probably the easiest to replace. A Pepsi or Coke will be very hard to find, especially s unworn one.

#2 Super Sub

The SD is the ultimate "Sub" the new DEEPSEA being a completely different monster. Also, it is out of production and different from the others in the sense it has no cyclops. It is also harder to find this than a Sub or Sub LV in the future.

#3 The beater.

I chose the Sub as a beater. I am not fond of LV's hence I chose the regular Sub-Date. The LV would be a fine choice too. Just a matter which one smiles to you more...

But I realize that might be erroneous... If a GMT makes a better beater, than Keep the GMT IIC with the Classic GMT II and SD as the safe queens.

This one's easy, Kevin.

Definitely get rid of the following 3..............

LV Sub

SD

One of the GMT-IIs.


You already have the superb SS Sub-date, GMT-IIC and the classic Pepsi GMT-II.

You're a pilot..............so strap on the GMT-II on one wrist for your profession and the Sub on the other in case you decide to land in the water!!
