That's easy the YM

The GMT TT doesn't come with that dial only the all gold, so that's a deal breaker

I don't know enough about the brand to have spotted that, thanks for sharing

Just purely on face value, I would pick the YM all day every day. Stunning piece.

My thoughts exactly.
The green dial only comes on the full 18k GMT and I like my watches all original.

YM but of from the same person, I would be cautious and understand why they have changed the dial. Blue YM is a stunning piece.

I've seen the YM blue dial in person and it was stunning! YM all day.
Mentioned by a few posters before, something fishy w the TT GMT. I've only seen YG GMT green dial but never TT.
