What is the consensus. Both V series and priced brand new within $500. Use would be everyday where. I have owned both in the past and loved them for a time. I am slightly leaning to the LV, but I need ...

I vote for the LV.

petesjag · 24 March 2010, 06:34 AM

Oh...I had the same problem...Ended up getting both!!

rad87gn · 24 March 2010, 06:35 AM

Both nice watches. It's total personal preference.

JUSTROLEXES · 24 March 2010, 06:37 AM

both are great watches... it goes back to you and what you like...

mike · 24 March 2010, 06:41 AM

It's really which you prefer.

viper · 24 March 2010, 06:43 AM

i'd go LV. it's my personal favorite and seems to be more unique IMO.

the LV has been discontinued from what I understand so the GMT-C will be easy to get at a future date if you decide to.

i've worn an LV almost everyday for 5yrs now. it's a great watch no matter you're doing!

.....and it does get many compliments, much more than any other Rolex I've worn

get what YOU like more

mpkRolex · 24 March 2010, 06:47 AM

Green bezel sub

Eric89 · 24 March 2010, 07:20 AM

SUB LV

If you get the extra black bezel you could always change it up when/if you get bored of the green.

JPS · 24 March 2010, 07:25 AM

I just sold my GMT IIc, but I'm not selling my LV!

The LV is great for everyday wear and tear and the green bezel gives it another classy dimension. The GMT IIc (while a beautiful watch) had all the right upgrades, but did not do it for me like the magnificent LV!

SubKing · 24 March 2010, 07:26 AM

sub lv hands down!

rfknauss · 24 March 2010, 07:29 AM

I like the LV Sub.

Randy · 24 March 2010, 08:20 AM

Grab a LV BNIB while you can! GMTllc are everywhere. Good luck!

timetravel125 · 24 March 2010, 08:26 AM

GMT IIC, for me. Green bezel, is a bit too much, for my personal taste.

Arrgo · 24 March 2010, 09:47 AM

Sub LV all the way!!!!!! No contest

dannyjak · 24 March 2010, 10:24 AM

tried on both at an AD, prefer the GMT-IIc

the LV just didnt quite do it, and although the green is super cool, just wasnt practical enough

superb · 24 March 2010, 10:43 AM

LV is what i would go for. Like others said, GMT IIc can be obtained easily in the future.

nauticajoe · 24 March 2010, 11:48 AM

I'm leaning towards the GMT, although I'm a bit biased.

wgs · 24 March 2010, 12:13 PM

Whatever your gut says. If you would have asked me 3 months ago I would have said GMT IIc hands down...but the LV has really grown on me. Is Rolex still going to produce it when the Sub with the green bezel AND dial comes out?

Best of luck with the decision!

JohnKC · 24 March 2010, 01:48 PM

GMT IIc for me.

Jon2168 · 24 March 2010, 02:31 PM

GMT IIc is very comfortable watch, but don't know about everyday use with the wear and tear. You should get both and switch off.

DCG · 24 March 2010, 03:03 PM

Lv.

Gerardus · 24 March 2010, 04:53 PM

Both great, i take the LV at this moment.

presario · 24 March 2010, 05:49 PM

GMT2C for me, but I love the LV as well.

icnbne · 24 March 2010, 05:59 PM

Davvan · 24 March 2010, 07:57 PM

Go for the LV.....less chunky and a great choice in my op!!
