As always...thank you for the advice/opinions

Which would you choose to wear as a daily, if you were wearing YG?
Attire....jeans, polos, button downs, brown leather shoes & belt...casual

Green dial GMT
Sunburst blue Sub

DramaTurtle · 3 July 2017, 06:09 AM

Green GMT... the only time I would pick a GMT over a sub.

Canefan1 · 3 July 2017, 06:11 AM

Either. The GMT kills.

Mr Oneil · 3 July 2017, 06:11 AM

Blue Sub! Although the green GMT in person is very distinct, pictures hardly do it justice.

mrhy · 3 July 2017, 06:12 AM

Blue

That's a really tough one..
I might give the slight edge to the GMT for that green dial which is even better than any pic I've seen.

Both stunners but the sunburst blue just edges it.

TOlsen · 3 July 2017, 06:17 AM

GMT for black leather belt/shoes, SUB for brown leather..

fskywalker · 3 July 2017, 06:18 AM

From those 2 green GMT, but with that clothing would probably suggest something in WG or platinum (Platona if you still own it) as it is more under the radar

Yes the WG or PT works for sure, just strictly going for YG opinion though

I voted Green dial GMT, but I also agree with your suggestion of WG/Plat instead with the attire as stated.....or a maybe a RG Yachtmaster/Oysterflex perhaps?

In this case though, that Sub is the clear winner for me. I love the Sub anyway and the blue dial/bezel combo looks excellent with the YG! I could wear that everyday....you know, if I could afford it, haha.

But...I voted for the GMT b/c I always pull for the underdog.

Green is nice but I would do black for GMT. More versatile.

But my favorite Rolex is the Sub and anything sunburst puts it over the top. I love mine:
Also agree with glidelock for the kill... That REALLY helps me, as my wrists seem to really fluctuate here in the Florida heat.
Especially on heavier PM watches, it is even more important. It is SO much better than easylink (at least for me).
Dear Rolex, please start putting glidelock clasps on all your sports models...

Thanks guys....I have the daydate, but my thoughts were...if I'm going to wear a daily ( or very regularly worn in rotation ) gold watch, i don't want to worry about whacking the bezel, I'm active all day, so the ceramic suits my lifestyle for sure. Also have my Daytona on leather as well.
Also surprised at the response about the matching with my attire....I thought the GMT with the green would be a better fit. Thank you for the responses

kilyung · 3 July 2017, 06:41 AM

Blue sub for me as green isn't my favorite color. A black and YG watch would be even more flexible.

This. The black dial GMT is more flexible, and I don't love the green.

On a sub, I'd do blue or serti instead of black.

MCO1 · 3 July 2017, 06:58 AM

Tough poll! They are both spectacular...the GMT wins by a bit for me.

Rocco21 · 3 July 2017, 06:59 AM

sea-dweller · 3 July 2017, 07:15 AM

I vote for the Sub.

ejvette · 3 July 2017, 07:17 AM

I lean in favor of the sub but both killer watches

AK797 · 3 July 2017, 07:18 AM

I've had both but the blue is the one that stayed. Perfect sunshine watch.

If go with the gmt. But I prefer the black gmt or sub

wrist_watcher · 3 July 2017, 07:19 AM

Sub hands down. Not a fan of the pool table green GMT dial. Black suits it much better, IMO
