I think it’s interesting to look at these two watches and observe the distinct differences. For me it’s the chief reason, or reasons, that I enjoy transitioning from one to the other. Let’s take a look at the Rolex GMT 16750 vs the Rolex Sea Dweller 16600. The both have 40 mm cases but from there they differ in many ways, both functionally and esthetically.

Plexi crystal Sapphire crystal

Cyclops No cyclops

Bi-directional bezel Unidirectional bezel
Smooth turning Ratcheting

Thin case Thick case for depth

No HRV HRV

Hollow end links Solid end links

Matte dial Glossy dial

No surrounds Metal surrounds

Twin lock crown Triple lock crown

GMT hand No GMT hand

Well, did I leave anything out? I know there are many here that enjoy a vertical (I believe) collection, for example, various iterations of the Submariner. But, for me, this is the most enjoyable aspect. Cheers
