Hi everyone, I finally made a decision between the sub and gmt SS and got the GMT today. Thanks for all your input on my previous posts!!

mfer · 31 July 2008, 05:08 AM

I can't wait. I pick mine up tomorrow!!!!!

BIG Congrats!

It seems there are a TON of people that get their purchase narrowed down to a Sub vs a GMT IIc, and then when they compare both watches in person, they choose the GMT IIc. To me, this watch is the perfect mis of dressiness, bling, and sportiness. (Not sure if any of those are actual words, but you know what I mean).

kcmo · 31 July 2008, 05:43 AM

Congrats! A great partner to your DJ. Gotta say that this one is really growing on me!!! Uh oh!

Enjoy it!

Guilty as charged! I made the right decision - not a second thought.

boomvader · 31 July 2008, 06:25 AM

Congrats! Wear it in good health.

I know what that decision is like. I also chose the GMT IIC over the Sub.

mingo · 31 July 2008, 06:27 AM

Nice...I think that will be my next watch....

Fantastic watch buddy.....Its got to go on the list for me to get

cocopeep · 31 July 2008, 06:57 AM

Thanks for the kind comments! Had it for a few hours now and I am used to it already. The dealer said the numbers in the rotatable bezel are platinum, is that true?

Roselló · 31 July 2008, 07:16 AM

Great watch. I can't wait for GMT "pepsi".

gtbike72 · 31 July 2008, 07:18 AM

BEST choice !!! you wont regret it!!! Congrats!

I love the fit/feel of my GMT IIc. It feels the best on my wrist more than any other watch in my collection. Congratulations on buying a very fine Rolex watch.

BigHat · 31 July 2008, 08:57 AM

I think you made a wise choice and have a more useful watch. Good luck with it.

dukerules · 31 July 2008, 09:11 AM

wow-you can really see the benefit of the AR coating on the cyclops in that pic.

CALIFORNIA-BG · 31 July 2008, 09:29 AM

A beauty!!!
I'm starting to feel left out as i have a tt gmt iic!!!
Are you people out there buying this model or do i need to buy a ss gmtc!!???

Andad · 31 July 2008, 09:30 AM

Yup, that's the one.

The only GMT that beats it is the TT.

Welcome to the club.

Wolfgang427 · 31 July 2008, 10:32 AM

Congrats on your excellent Rolex

cocopeep · 31 July 2008, 11:11 AM

Thanks again for your nice comments! I heard this is a popular watch, as it is with the SS sub. I had a hard time deciding which to get, both watches are great in their own way. I did like the sub no date because of its "balanced" dial, but I like the GMT II because of the date, bezel & new bracelet. I am surprised to hear it has platinum numbers in the bezel.

tom33455 · 31 July 2008, 11:20 AM

a great choice. best of luck and enjoy in good health :cheers
