TT GMTII C Happier every moment!!!!
So the second Month of ownership is running and I now have my TT GMTIIC in ciruict with my other watches! So I use one different every week, so far i have used My Tag Carrera Chrono Tachymetre last week and the Omega Constellation this week, truth be told I miss the GMT!!!!! just the weight of the watch is something I miss, plus the accuracy! The Tag would be off in a week on or about 5 seconds behind, not bad considering it has a Valjoux 7750 caliber inside, but the Omega has me dissappointed!!!! its running fast!!!! superman fast!!!! it's gaining about 25 seconds each day!!!!! I've had this wathc for about 7 years and I guess it is time for service, even tough I asked the watchmaker on my AD that it can do 8 years with out service specially if I have used the watch 1 week a month or less and never really swim with it! So to complete the circle nothing Beats Rolex !!!!! I looks, feels and works as nothing else!!!
By the way I was navigating over on ebay, and I wanted to see just how rare a PAM 88 was (I have one on layaway) well I found 6 New 2 used, not bad! So I wanted to compare how many Daytonas are there on offer...just 31!!! I guess it is a good business to buy at list and sell at market price, so not everyone is keeping their SS Daytonas, next thing I do is see just how many TT GMTII C' are for sale?.... 4!!! just 4!!!! And My AD who usually has just about everything (Except for the SS Daytona and Milgaus of course) on stock has none! So people is happy with their TT GMTIIC's I guess! I am!!!!

I just got done smiling at mine (SS)! Excellent choice on that TT. Saw one on a fellow restaurant patron the other night. Amazing.

Love mine as well
I have to concur that the GMTIIc is awesome! I love this thing more everyday. I often catch others looking at my watch out of the corner of their eye then looking down at their own in disgust!

Thanks guys
The GMT is much more interesting to the eye overall then the YG DD. I guess its the lumes and the 4 hands,, makes for lots of possibilities. Don |

Great pictures. You guys are driving me crazy. I feel like Hamlet, "To sell or not to sell" that is the question. I love the way the watch looks but it's just too big for me and I know Rolex will be coming out with something good in April.

I think the aesthetics of the GMT overall are the best of any Rolex including the DD's.
The black bezel is pristine, shiney and brings out the maxi dial and hands. I went to a car dealer today and the finance man who I was meeting with said,, beautiful watch.. is it a rolex and I said yes, the new GMT ll c. I was wearing a short sleeve shirt and this watch is so "showy" and gets everyone's attention. I gave him a 3 sentence blurb on the make up of the GMT and why 4 hands. I know car people like this stuff and he wanted know how much, where to get it and the exact model #. I may have gotten someone into Rolex s today!! Don |
