ROLEX GMTII C TT 116713 BLACK

Bangel · 21 May 2013, 08:04 PM

I chose the LV.

If not TT, I would have gone with the GMT.

Have fun with your decision!

songkran · 21 May 2013, 08:20 PM

I don't like TT so I choose Hulk.

Cru Jones · 21 May 2013, 08:36 PM

Do you have any idea what he prefers? Does he like YG? Does he have other divers?

Not knowing anything more, I didn't vote.

jenniferjanef · 21 May 2013, 08:53 PM

Sorry I should add in that he is a 70 yo man. His everyday watch are a DD2 18KWG and RM010RG.. He do not dive but fly very often to different timezone.. I personally love the hulk but I am not sure if he will like or not since I have ever seen him wearing green ...

well, then, no doubt, TT GMTIIc, which, IMHO, is the nicest TT sports watch available.

and, if you don't already have one, get an LVc for you while you're at it. getting such a gift for your FIL? you deserve it.

Rogdogg · 21 May 2013, 09:04 PM

Based on the fact he travels a lot I would say GMT. The Hulk seems to be one of those love/don't love (I won't say hate) watches due to some people being particular about green. I'm not usually a fan of TT but if I had to have one the GMT would be the one I would get. Given those choices I'd go TT GMT but is a Stainless Steel GMT an option? What about an Explorer II. They both have the extra time zone function.

GMT2 TT is one of the nicest looking TT watches made by Rolex. you have to see it in person to Appreciate it.

cop414 · 21 May 2013, 09:09 PM

GMT with the info you've posted. Nice gift BTW!

LV SUB · 21 May 2013, 09:11 PM

The Hulk !

Glidelock · 21 May 2013, 09:26 PM

Hulk get my vote!

gwozhog · 21 May 2013, 09:41 PM

I don't think a 70 year old would wear a green watch. I would buy him a regular sub c.

VICI · 21 May 2013, 10:58 PM

The timezone situation lends itself to the GMT.

I find the bezel a little to busy for my taste.

The Hulk is just very different and special.

Truth is, my iPhone keeps great time of as many time zones as I wish.

If he would appreciate the movement then get the GMT, if he just needs the function, get the sub.

kilyung · 21 May 2013, 10:59 PM

I hope I have a RG RM10 when I hit 70! Seriously, I'd get him a SS SubC or GMTIIc.

AK797 · 22 May 2013, 02:09 AM

Green for a seventy yo is a bit risky. Buy the GMTC but keep the receipt.

mh0388a · 22 May 2013, 02:22 AM

Voted for Hulk, but would change my vote to TT GMT based on the description, two tone is classic-gent approved.

Lion · 22 May 2013, 02:26 AM

I think what ever gift you decide to buy him he will be happy with!!!

Take it easy.....Leo

Blue Owl · 22 May 2013, 02:52 AM

There's nothing wrong if an old man wearing a Sub LVc. I believe that he would feel younger and couldn't be happier with it.

mtrunner · 22 May 2013, 02:56 AM

I would go with the TT GMTIIc based on the information provided!

nick c · 22 May 2013, 03:19 AM

Another vote for gmt ii TT

travisb · 22 May 2013, 03:23 AM

I prefer the LV but given your input, I'd say the GMT might be a better option.

jenniferjanef · 22 May 2013, 03:23 AM

Hi everyone... Sorry to end the poll a bit earlier than I want since my wife (jennifer) steps in and decided on the TT GMTIIC for his father. Thank you very much for everyone's kind feedbacks and participation. Cheers and wish you all a great weekends ahead! Cheers!! ;)

luvsub · 22 May 2013, 05:48 AM

Dr. · 22 May 2013, 05:53 AM
