Please show me your two tone GMT ceramic

Debating if I should trade my SS GMT ceramic for the two tone version. Would be the same serial and condition but of course I would need to add about $2500-$2700 on top.

What do you guys think?

Other Rolexes in my collection: white face SS Daytona, rhodium dial datejust, green face ceramic submariner.

It's a pretty good deal I think, but I personally like the SS version better. If I ever decide to get a TT Rolex, it would be the TT Sub.

Why not? Should be relatively easy to undo if you change your mind.

It's one of the better looking TT watches in the Rolex lineup.

From what you mentioned in your collection, I would definitely trade it for a TT GMT IIc.

Always good to have some variation in a collection, and a TT would do great!

Go for it!

Well I do have a lot of watches so none of my watches get worn THAT much. I try to spread out the wrist time.
