I don’t have a Cermit but I definitely want one.
I do have a GMT. And like others say it does wear so nice on the wrist. I have a new Bluesy and while I do love it, I feel it wears just a touch larger than it should. Get both if you can swing it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I love the cermit, but for me a GMT is just a touch more special, and with the GMT function. Try them both on and make your own call. |

Flip a coin. Though both is the right answer. :-)
If I really had to choose, I would go Sub, as a diver is a great sports watch and I love the clean lines of its bezel insert and all brushed oyster bracelet. |

At this point, I'll wait for something I'll wear and not an immediate flip. Told him Im looking for DJ 42 fluted jubilee then the GMT. I figured if it was offered to me it really wasnt moving.

I have both, started with BLNR, always wanted an LV, now I have an LV. I enjoy both for different reasons.

GMT. I don’t SCUBA dive.
I do travel and work with people across multiple time zones daily. I also prefer the aesthetic. First choice BLNR but BLRO is nice too. |

Cermit or GMT
For years, I would have answered with LV and without hesitation.
I have recently done a 180 though and now I much prefer my BLNR over my LV for a SS daily. I find the BLNR a much more interesting watch. I prefer it’s movement, it’s jumping hour hand, the date wheel moving backward as well. I think the BLNR dresses up better than the LV, and I have no problem with the PCL‘s in a casual setting either. I still like a LV but not as much as I used to. I’m actually in process of selling my current LV right now and that’ll leave me with zero Subs in my lineup (have had 3) but 2 GMTs. I think I’m OK with that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

So for you, before you get into Cermit or GMT and their status on the Rolex heirarchy, Id first ask.... Diver vs GMT function? |

They're so different that 'both' is the correct answer.
If that wasn't an option then I would have to say the GMT... but which GMT? |
