Member... like 30 minutes ! But, past Rolex owner, base Sub, Pepsi GMT and B&S 2T Sub.

Own none now but have a Paneri 176 and a Breitling Super"O".

Have the go from SWMO and I'm willing to let the Paneri go in a trade on a new Rolex.

I'm ready to make the deal tonight but am still torn between two watches.

Which watch is more desireable to the "Rolex Bunch" ?

The Blue and SS 2T Submariner or the GMT Master II 2T Black and Gold or Stainless S / D ???

Any and all suggestions are requested.

If you are going with a TT watch, I would definatly go with the TT blue sub!! Just my opinion!

Gaijin · 20 July 2007, 06:33 AM

TT Blue Sub is a classic beauty. If you want the Maxi Dial go GMT.

Blue Bull · 20 July 2007, 06:35 AM

The Blue King ... !!

kcmo · 20 July 2007, 06:35 AM

Tough choice as they're 3 very different watches.

Do you want a dressy/sport model such as the TT? The SD is more casual I think.

I must be one of the few who have never really warmed much to the blue TT sub, so I'd go for the new GMT if TT was the route.

What about the YM? Very stealthy IMO.

Let us know what you decide!

Woody · 20 July 2007, 06:36 AM

I would go for the new style GMTII unless the watch is likely to have to endure some harsh conditions when I would pick the SD.

The blue sub is beautiful...but having that much blue on your wrist all the time....

I don't think so....

Be a man......Go for the TT Black GMT

SPACE-DWELLER · 20 July 2007, 07:20 AM

Not being fond of TT watches, I'd go for the SD!

For me, there is EITHER gold OR steel. To mix them is not my cup of tea.

watchnut · 20 July 2007, 07:39 AM

I'd go for the TT GMT. Beautiful, new crown, case and versatility. With apologies to JJ, the TT Sub/blue is a bit too gaudy for me. The sea-dweller is a specialty watch, way too big, bulky unless you need it.

The Blue Sub all the way,

ROLEXAHOLIC · 20 July 2007, 08:05 AM

The classic TT Blue sub is the "only" way to go just look at your poll.

BLSampson · 20 July 2007, 09:12 AM

TT Blue Sub...real men wear blue.

Rawhyde · 20 July 2007, 12:17 PM

I like and respect the SD, but my bad eyesight makes the cyclops on a Sub more attractive with each year that passes. I know many will disagree, but I don't like the looks of the bezel on the new ceramic GMT. (I do like the Pepsi GMT...) That leaves the TT Blue Sub... I really like the combination of visual impact and easy readability of this model. I'm stuffing pennies into a jar for one of these beauties to be my next watch.

No matter what any of us say, there's really not a loser in the bunch!

Blue sub. Classic of classics in Rolexdom.

LouCan · 20 July 2007, 01:20 PM

I have allways loved the TTsub but i ordered a YM TT with a Bk MOP face . I am expecting it to arrive tomorrow. I wanted something different. I see too many TT subs out there. Its a tuff choice. I spent a little more to get the YM but I am glad i did . Good Luck my friend

Welcome to TRF, pal.

Hope this pic convinces you as to what you should really get!!

Andad · 20 July 2007, 05:40 PM

I do like my SD for work and prefer my GMT II TT to my TT blue sub at the weekends mainly because it is new and I do like the maxi dial, big case and the best bracelet on a Rolex to date IMO.
