Options... Help!!
So I had a 114060, but traded it for a 214270 (2016) edition. If i had to choose between sub no date and explorer, I would choose explorer, but I really want a date reference. I also have a GS Snowflake (Not really an every day piece IMO, but still a very cool watch)... I just got a house, so I don't plan to kick any more cash in right now... so here are my options (open to other suggestions)... Curious on your thoughts!
1. Get rid of the Explorer and Snowflake for 16610LN and some cash (Love classic look, comfort and lugs compared to modern version) 2. Get rid of Explorer and Snowflake for 116610LN (Love the bezel and braclet) 3. Keep my Explorer 1 (2016) & Grand Seiko Snowflake 4. Others? (I prefer not to pay more than 1000 of cash on top) |

If it was me I would go for a ceramic GMT master 2 116710. The case sits more comfortable on your wrist compared to the ceramic sub and its probably the best all around Rolex watch.

I love it. But I have a hard time justifying the GMT functionality. I travel a lot for work, but domestic and along the east coast. Probably a topic for a new thread, but I'm curious if GMT owners love the watch even if they have no use for its functionality? Granted, you don't technically need functionality on a sub either with phone and other tech. But it definitely serves more practical everyday needs IMO. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I would go with option #2 As far as the GMT question, I love the GMT and I don't use it for it's functionality as I don't travel all that much. I mean I guess I sort of do because I keep it on GMT time so I know what time sneaker releases happen (not that I need it for that really lol) I just like the way it looks more than anything. |
