Welcome.

I'd say the IIc would round out the collection nicely.

As much as I like the DSSD, I would suggest the IIc since you already have a Sea Dweller.

the questions are - 1. are you wearing it for you OR 2. for other people to notice?

no to Q1 if you know your Rolexes,

and yes to Q2, because to most non-WIS both can look very similar

have you considered a Rolex dress watch to diverse your collection?

I do agree the GMT II and Sea Dweller are look alike for average person, not to Rolex fan.
I love the Deep Sea because the solid and the quality are much higher level than GMT II and so do the price. But just one thing need to worry is the height , not the weight of the Deep Sea which sometimes I think is too high and like wear the clock in the wrist and have problem wear long sleeve shirt.
I know at that moment huge is fashion,but what about the huge watch fashion gone like 10 years ago the thin watch fashion. Because Deep Sea is not cheap and wear for long term,not only for fashion.
I am confused myself, I do love the Deep Sea rather than GMT II but the height and problem wearing under long sleeve shirt, I still can not make up my mind.

Hi All Rolex Fans
HELP

I would prefer the GMT II C for its looks, variety and additional timezone feature.

DSSD Why ? Best watch in Rolex line up The height thing goes away in a couple of days cause you get use to it, as a matter of fact you will prefer it. Bracelet alone with the Glide lock would sell me. New Ring lock system, Looks way different , bigger is better in this case. Go for something different you won't regret it.. the the Rolex King Get the DSSD

idissagree, i plan to get a sd and a dssd. i think a sd will better suite sporting activity and be easier to cope with it showing usage.

sell the sea dweller... then get a GMT IIC AND a DSSD! (but i think you'll have to add a couple of hundreds more for this though)

I would go for a GMTII, since you already have a sea dweller.
