Decision Process

Heading out of the country to Nova Scotia for a 30th anniversary get-away and I'm contemplating which watch to wear. Since my DJII is in the shop and I want to wear a Rolex (not one of the Tudors, Omegas or Breitling) I'm left with a decision to make.

The trip will involve changing time zones by one hour. Not something that would create a sense of disorientation but a 24 hour hand would help keep things straight, regadless. For that I have my 16700 t<25 and my 16570 Super Luminova. We are taking a cruise from Portland, ME to Nova Scotia so a Sub might be appropriate on shipboard. We'll also be going by boat on the way back and staying in a working fishing village so again a sub might be appropriate.

Since we'll be meeting strangers, wearing a flashy recognized Rolex might work either for or against us. Faulting on the conservative side I'm thinking that the 16013 and 1803 might be to readily recognized as might the GMT and Sub.

My inclination is to go with the most under the radar watch which would provide both a second time zone and good night time legibility, the ExpII mentioned earlier. The OP would also likely fly well under the radar. I'm inclined to believe this is the winner.
