LN GMT because Rolex may never make another LN GMT (especially with green highlights). There will always be a LN Submariner.

The 116710LN because of the second time zone complication and the jump hour hand which makes traveling across time zones and switching from standard time to DST (or vice versa) a snap.

It's weird being the same age as old people.

Both are almost the same thing, but the GMT is going to be my pick.

This^. The glidelock works both ways. It is much longer than the clasp on the GMT, and for me it was less comfortable.

You can't go wrong with any of the choices, but I would go with the GMT for it function.

I have both.

But in retrospect I should have only bought the GMT, seing as it has more functions and is slightly more comfy to wear for me. They are very similar, too similar to perhaps have both if money is an issue.

I like brushed bracelet more. So, Sub.

I prefer the “slimmer” profile of the GMT. And that green GMT hand…


But the glidelock and brushed bracelet on the sub is second to none…


The thicker caseback which provides for a 300m depth rating makes it “sit” just a touch higher on the wrist. But that’s debatable.

That green is so subtle but oh so sexy…


But the “simpler” bezel on the sub…

I like em both…it’s a hard choice. But ultimately, if I had to choose…I’d go for the GMT. Hope this helps…
