Ceramics x 2
Just curious if anyone has both a SS Sub C and a SS GMT II C? If you do, do you find you have much variety? In the old days, it was not unusual to have an SS SUb and a GMT Coke or Pepsi too.

I think the GMT IIc and the DSSD would be a great ceramic duo

Quick question. Are the lugs the same on both? The Sub's lugs look slightly wider and possibly shorter. I have always wondered this and even side by side I still wonder.

I’m not sure but judging from the pic, the Sub’s lugs look longer than the GMT’s. Also, the Sub’s crown guards seem to be wider than that of the GMT’s. Regardless, both of those SS watches are a-OK. I have the TT GMTIIc and I hope to add a TT Blue SubC to my collection some time in the near future.

Great pic! Thanks for sharing. I can definitely see your point Eric. I just wonder if anyone got the other in TT to differentiate. But not everyone likes TT or YG.

Well....I'm actually going the Ceramic x 2 club! Waiting for the arrival of my SS GMT II C from David SW. I considered a TT GMT but, though gorgeous, I prefer my watches less blingy. I had a Sub TT before and I felt it just drew too much attention. And quite a lot of them around. So i went with the SS. But with the polished center links it will be a tad dressier I think than my SS Sub C. And the PCLs got me thinking. It totally fits with the GMT. The classic GMTs once had the option of the jubilee bracelet which, as we know, has PCLs! As usual Rolex knows what they're doing when they slowly redesign, I.e., update, their pieces Thanks again for sharing your pics! Hope everyones enjoying the weekend.
