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

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.

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.

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!

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
