I've been toying with the idea of a YG sports watch and I'd like to have both the SubC and GMTIIc in my collection but only one of them in gold. I have a hard time with the idea of a solid gold sub for any sports activities (particularly diving). Seems like the GMT is a better option. I currently have the SS GMTIIc.

So which would you pick?

If I had the $$$ I would get a YG black dial GMT II C and a WG Sub C

Gaijin · 15 April 2011, 01:33 PM

Mike if you already have the SS GMT II C and you can get the YG Sub that would be my choice. No choice is bad though!

Took a look at the WG SubC... didn't like the blue.

Since you have a SS ceramic and you want both a gmt and a sub with one in YG, then it seems too easy, you add a YG sub.

If given the same senario and having neither watch to start, I would still make the same choice since I like the SS ceramic GMT (with the green 24 hour hand and the SS polished center links) better than the SS sub. By the way, I also like the YG sub better than the YG GMT (because the bezel on the YG sub, with all the numbers in gold, looks just a bit too busy and the YG sub looks cleaner).

why not a YG Daytona? there are so many more dial choices...

a vote for the SS Sub C & YG GMT IIC combo.

thewatchguy93 · 15 April 2011, 09:00 PM

It would have to be Yellow Gold GMTIIc Green Dial. And or a WG Subc

esm · 15 April 2011, 09:08 PM

YG Sub-C and YG GMTIIC gets my vote

watchf · 15 April 2011, 09:08 PM

IMHO the SS black subc is a staple, a must have. So you need a SS black subc and then go for TT on the GMT to have a variety.

OLJR · 15 April 2011, 09:10 PM

I voted to get both in YG.

But if I had to choose only one in gold it would be the GMT.
