None in particular, Chis. As you can see, I've had multiples of many models......but the one I'm really happy with right now and which I think would have to be the best of the lot is my new TT GMT-IIC!!

I do love my SS/Pt. YM as well and, for everyday wear, nothing beats the solidity and utility of the Sub-date.

Sorry, haven't been around that long and just got curious.

Bubba's real nam is Joe (username: redshirt1957). He is an active member on this forum and he gifted me the SS Sub-date last year.

The longest I've had any of those models is the very first one, the TT DJ on Jubilee 16013 which I kept for 10 long years.....from 1980 to 1990.

JJ,

You've had all three GMT colors and I'm just curious why you never hung on to any of those? Very curious if you care to share.

I think you've landed on a pretty sweet 3 watches in your collection right now JJ!
