In case anybody's wondering, I ended up getting this beauty. Finally pulled the trigger! And yes, I do wear my watch on both hands, not sure if anybody else here does that. (right when I work, left every other time)

Lume is impressive, sorry for the poor lume shot. I know many have suggested keeping the sub, but it's getting a little dull for me to be honest. Or should I just give the sub a few more months before I decide on selling it off?

Oh, and I need some feedback on GMT owners. My card is dated 2015, how many links should I have in total on the GMT bracelet? Many thanks in advance. I absolutely agree when people say this is one of the best looking watches out there. Love it!

p/s: Funny story. One of my concerns when getting the GMT was the fact that I wouldn't be able to micro adjust my bracelet anymore to fit both my wrists. With the sub's glidelock and half-links, I found myself adjusting the bracelet pretty much everyday, sometimes even up to twice a day. With this GMT now, been wearing it for about a week, I only got it sized once, and that was that. I guess turns out, I was just using the glidelock feature because it was there, and not that I actually needed it.

Congrats on your beautiful choice! And yes, just give it a little more time to see if you really want to sell the Sub Date.

I’d keep your sub and get the BLNR! Beautiful pair

Honestly to me some TT Rolex like the GMT and Datejust attract more attention than a solid gold piece.

All are great watches. I have all 3. Would keep the BLNR if could only keep one. It’s just a little more versatile. But it’s close.

Thanks guys!! Really satisfied with my purchase. Absolutely stunning, especially under the sun!

BLNR - Nah, don't think I'll go down that road again. Had it, flipped it, been there, done that. It is a nice watch, just not for everybody. To me, there's just something more 'classy' about gold.

Sub - Yeah, much more versatile as an 'if you could only have one' watch but as of now, the sub is getting absolutely zero wrist time!
