Do you like shiny or matte?

Do you like heavy or light?

I have a 16610 (traditional sub) and a 116710 (IIc)
I voted for 16710 coke.

I like matte and light.

x2....I've had both & 16710 is way more comfortable, if that matters to you.

yes it does except the bracelet. I would own one or the other. gmtiic makes more sense to me in all possible ways

I think versatility favors the GMT II. I really don't look at it as a RED/BLUE, RED/BLACK etc.... Bezel inserts are easy to swap so you can have it all.

The bezel itself with it's 120 click revolution I think gives a bit more versatility when using as a timming device.

The strength of the IIC to me is the maxi-dial and the triplock crown. I do think the easyout link is a little slice of heaven.

At least for now though you can have it in any color you want...as long as it's black.

I put them side by side and although the C is an improvement technically I think the Pepsi just looks nicer so that's what I bought. I don't get the same skip of a heart beat with the C, but I do like the C in two-tone. Another decision factor for me was I wanted a 120 click bezel and the option to change inserts.

I have the gmt2 with all 3 inserts and my favorite is the Coke.
Even though i originally thought i was a Pepsi guy!

If I was to have one watch = gmt2c

Otherwise if its your 2nd/3rd watch get the gmt2

Hope that helps!
