GMT II-c vs TT blue sub

[mic6]

Here is my dilemma. I own both watches but due to other financial needs one of them has to go... This is a really tough decision. I used to be an one-watch guy in the past so no problem with that..The question is which one to keep?

I love the bigger gmtII case and all the improvements. On the other side this blue dial is just unbeatable! The thing is I don't wear gold in general but the TT blue sub is something else...I surely get more compliments for the TT sub than for the gmtII-c which i don't mind...On the other hand sometimes the sub looks too much with casual outfit and jeans which i wear all the time...I really need your opinions... Sales price will be very close for both so not a real problem here

So???

Thats a very hard decision but I would keep the GMT and sell the Sub!!!

I agree. The GMT2c is hard to beat as an only watch.

x3


and sorry you have to sell, but life goes on. You'll get another bluesy....

[ZROLEX]

both are great watches and it's a hard decision. if it would be me i'd rather let go gmt. sub is so nice and tt looks fantastic with that blue dial.

I'd say keep the GMT-IIC. Great watch, newer movement, better features (SELs, ceramic bezel etc. Newer Subs maybe this year so you can upgrade later.

My ONLY reservation on this advice is that the TT Sub is better suited to more formal attire. While neither one is a dress watch in my view, with a suit, I'd rather wear the TT Sub. Of course, I don't know how often that's an issue for you.

To me it would depend which one brought the best price as they are both great watches.

[CEG]

i too may have a similar dilemma, but mine is which one to buy (they'll cost me the same) !!!

[MAC4130]

Since I have a GMT IIC I vote the GMTIIC, you have the added benefit of the GMT function!

[mestreaudi]

Keep the GMT!!!!!!

[kcmo]

I'm not a huge fan of the blue TT Sub so I'd say stick with the GMTII-C !!!

X2 Good luck

[tinknock71]

Keep the GMT, I had both at one time also, I flipped the sub.

[ROGERB]

I as others voted for the GMT...just seems versatile in SS and blk ..

[JJ Irani]

Sell BOTH and buy a Platty!!

[CPTL]

Vote for Bluesy. I'm not a huge fan of the cosmetic "upgrades" on the GMT-IIC, but the Bluesy is a CLASSIC. Among the best Rolex has to offer. Plus, the GMT-IIC is more likely to give you full return on purchase price, and will be easier to sell.

[Chris B]

Your decision but I'd keep the Bluey, it really is something special

[BuffaloRolex]

I'd keep the Sub, but then, I'm biased!

Sounds from your post though like you are leaning towards the GMT IIc. So don't listen to what we think---fall to the side your leaning towards.

[wantonebad]

We're all biased, no need to preface your statements LOL!!!

And on that note I voted for Bluesy, it's the Icon in the bellow 10K watches IMHO, I mean it's dressy, it's casual, it's a functional diver, and it's always in demand, so the resell value is strong.

The GMTII is the hot watch currently, but the 16613 has been hot since the 80's

[SPACE-DWELLER]

As an everyday watch, I'd keep the SS GMT IIc. Although it never grew on me, it IS a more versatile watch. You can wear it with every attire and it does come in handy when travelling.

[Welshwatchman]

You would probably get a better price for the GMT, even though it would have cost a lot less than the blue sub when new.

Keep the sub.

[newrolexman]

GMT 11 c

accurate great reliable watch

and great looking.

[Terry Newton]

I own the TT GMT and a SS Date Sub. If I was forced to sell one right now I would let the Sub go. In my opinion the GMT is a fabulous watch with many new features. I would tend to think that I could pick up a Sub at a later time. Besides, the price increase has made my TT so costly that I don't know if I would buy it again at this price today. It's over $10,000 now.

I would keep the GMT. Beautiful watch.

[mic6]

thanks for the opinions guys
I have to say I am very impressed with the result...I thought it would be opposite
Also, i have to say that I am deciding this week but I will probably keep the TT sub
There is just something about this watch.............

JJ, I hate the YM with all the respect. Looks like a citizen to me

[DoxaDavid]

Michalis,

I also own both and I have yet to take off the plastic wrappers on my GMTIIc. Not that I regret buying it, but while it is a nice watch, the Bluesy TT Sub is just plain my FAVORITE! I also love my new TT Daytona but that is more my dress watch. I think the Bluesy looks great in casual wear. I wore my TT Sub for 15 years and I only wear jeans and khaki's to work. I always said, if I only had one watch..It would be a TT Sub. Best of both worlds as it can dress up with a suit or hang out by the pool.

I think you are leaning toward's the right choice!

Good luck and

You seriously need to have your eyes examined, pal!!

[mike]

[vukotab]

I would keep the Sub.
GMT c is great watch,but not as nearly fancy and classy as legendary Blue Sub!

[Trurolexer]

Really hard dicision, Man. But my humble opinion is keep your Bluesy and sell that GMT II-C. Bluesy so classic and very elegant.

[BiG JeEzY]

I say SS GMT-C. I just gotta love the new movement, new bezel, new clasp, maxi dial, bigger hands, and solid bracelet. With all those upgrades, the makes the GMT a mighty fine option as your one and only timepiece.
