All the Submariner family especially the Sea Dwellers

S.Explorer · 22 May 2022, 07:25 PM

GMT for the reasons already mentioned and it sits flatter than the Submariner. Nice bit of bling too with the PCLs and bezel font.

lord91 · 22 May 2022, 07:32 PM

Submariner if 11 series, GMT if 12

I’d agree with this.

Ultimately I’d have both in a collection. I choose (if going SS) jubilee gmt and LV sub.

TswaneNguni · 22 May 2022, 07:58 PM

Subs,classic Rolex sports and more substantial feel on the wrist .

Sums it up for me.

How is the bezel font more blingy on Pepsi than the Sub? Or blingy at all? Not to be confrontational, just curious.

Bustelo · 22 May 2022, 11:37 PM

All these guys had their subs secured in their watch boxes long before venturing after a colorful bezel for their next watch. Sub!

cornsyrup_bezel · 22 May 2022, 11:39 PM

GMT is my choice but the clean and beautifully proportioned sub dial as well as glide lock should not be underestimated.

HHIslander · 22 May 2022, 11:46 PM

6 digit sub > 6 digit GMT

5 digit GMT > 5 or 6 digit sub

JRell · 22 May 2022, 11:54 PM

Sub is clean and perfect and the GMT has the black professional dial with just enough bling. Fantastic combo!

fishingbear · 23 May 2022, 12:10 AM

GMT for function. But much love to my LV subs.

Very difficult choice… The Pepsi GMT, in all iterations, if my favorite watch. I absolutely love mine.

But the Submariner (No Date) is just so simple, beautiful, and easy to wear with everything.

If I could have only one…. I don’t know that I can decide.

mario1971 · 23 May 2022, 12:29 AM

Definitely GMT for me. Pepsi and Batman are a mile ahead of Suby. I have / had them all, that's why the choice is so simple.

Krash · 23 May 2022, 01:16 AM

The Submariner of course. I'd love to have a GMT too, but if I can only have one, I'd choose the Submariner.

This!

The clasp on the GMT is more comfortable, albeit sans glidelock...

The answer is buy both.

Agreed!

1William · 23 May 2022, 01:31 AM

I own the BLRO and BLNR on jubilee. I own a Submariner-C ND, a SD43 and a DSSD JC so I have some wrist time with the options listed. If I could only own one Rolex of theses it would be the BLRO on Jubilee. I would use a Tudor or Seiko as a diver. If only one watch period, it would be a Rolex Submariner-C ND.

interestedinwatches · 23 May 2022, 09:30 AM

Hulk personally gets the nod as the nicest out of the Sub and GMT lineup.

The larger profile + shiny platinum of the digits on the GMT does give it a bit more bling factor. The relatively smaller digits makes the Sub’s bezel a bit more muted. This is only relative though, but i have noticed the GMT does catch more eyes.

Of those options, Batgirl for me

htc8p · 23 May 2022, 05:03 PM

GMT will always be the winner for me. they both look the same but the gmt function just adds practicality.

black is the classic

The bezel font is larger / bolder / more frequent on the GMTs and I like how the PCLs reflect more light.

B2 Stealth · 23 May 2022, 11:07 PM

I appreciate my Submariner but GMT essential in my line of work. Dual time-zones, cyclops, jubilee bracelet for comfort (hides scratches and scuffs better than my brushed Oyster bracelet on Sub). The connection to aviation and military--nothing comes close to a Rolex GMT.

kegan · 24 May 2022, 02:55 AM

I really like my Sea-Dweller but if pressed to choose between my 16710 and 16600 without hesitation I’m keeping the GMT.

Bazil · 24 May 2022, 04:14 AM

For me GMT Batman on Oyster, something I'm seeking to find, I know I wont get it by my local AD so I'm resigned to paying Grey dealer prices which I've seen a few. They seem to be coming down a little bit but not rapidly enough to warrant pulling the trigger.
GMT suits my work life and appears much more interesting to me, the Batman colour scheme hits the mark in every way for me.
May end up being another drunken regrettable purchase ..

DBCooper07 · 24 May 2022, 04:19 AM

I feel it's the perfect 2 watch collection for me. Black sub for day to day, it goes with everything. Pepsi or Batman on oyster for vacations and weekends. Panda just because it's awesome, but I'll never own one. I'm happy with 2.

Wrongway108 · 24 May 2022, 08:31 AM

My vote would be Sub, although the GMT complication is super helpful. Now, strap a non-PCL oyster on a GMT…boom

Farsh14 · 24 May 2022, 08:49 AM

Surprised GMT gets the nod. Love both. The gmt bezel is too loud and almost cartoonish for me whereas the submariner is more low key. In my opinion at least. But do love them both and hope to get a gmt down the road
