Anybody made this flip?
Has anybody here flipped their GMT2c for an LVC and NOT regretted it? I don't know why I can't get this out of my mind. I'm sick I know.....
Would you even consider this? I don't want to swap and then miss my 116710. Edit: I'm a one Rolex guy, so picking up a second one is out of the question at the present time.

As a sole Rolex, I'd keep the GMTIIc. It's more versatile IMO.

Keep the gmt. Save some cash and treat urself to the lvc later on when the time is right. Or you could leave the forum and get it out of your head that way lol

The GMT is the most versatile sport Rolex IMO...

Two very different watches from my perspective, which feature do you value most, multipal time zones or diver with a straighforward timing bezel ?

Matt, don't flip it. You will regret it later. I am quite certain of that, especially since you said you are a ONE Rolex guy.
That SS GMTIIC is an amazing timepiece. Very versatile on both casual and former wear.

Tough call. If it was a Pepsi, then I say keep it. The Hulk is a beauty though.
Good luck! |

After having enjoyed my subc for a good few months now I would happily swap it for the Hulk and the crying Aussie I bought it from, Ashes are ours baby, did the same.
