Ok guys, once again...which would you prefer? - I'm just interested in your opinions :)

Datejust II

Or

GMT Master II

mjm800 · 11 September 2010, 12:06 PM

Neither...but's that's just me.

I like SS and only SS sports models.

ninja5000 · 11 September 2010, 12:26 PM

I would look a couple posts up (The one that has the heading: First post here...and a new watch to mark the occassion...) at the 166100LN and not look back!

DRKBC · 11 September 2010, 12:31 PM

Like them both But GMT 2 for me better resale (perish the thought) functional, if you use the functions and I like the tool models.

jhilly8982 · 11 September 2010, 12:37 PM

what purpose will this watch serve? daily wearer? If so I would go for the GMT. But if you already have a sport model maybe pick up the datejust for special occasions.

buke45 · 11 September 2010, 12:55 PM

GMT, to be honest I am not a fan Of DJ II's

Me too. Neither.

burger'n'fries · 11 September 2010, 02:07 PM

It would have to be the DJ2 simply because it looks great. I would say the GMT is more common of the two models. From a distance it's possible to mistake the GMT for a sub because of their similar aesthetic features, but the DJ2 is easily identifiable. Both designs are iconic for Rolex, but I feel a Datejust wins in the recognition game. My two cents.

dligg72 · 11 September 2010, 02:27 PM

Gold is not for me so I would have to pass.

wjrw592 · 11 September 2010, 02:40 PM

I would say the GMT TT as it serves a wider range of needs and has the
2nd timezone hand which is helpful when you're out of your local timezone.

Good luck as they are both great choices!

darylc · 11 September 2010, 09:28 PM

GMT Master II TT

orangedial · 11 September 2010, 09:45 PM

I went through the same process when I bought my first Rollie, and it was not a difficult choice for me after seeing the watches in metal. I opted for the TT DJII

Jinder · 11 September 2010, 10:29 PM

Cheers guys!

NMS75 · 11 September 2010, 10:38 PM

GMT (but the SS model if it was me).

rfknauss · 11 September 2010, 10:39 PM

Jinder ...... I would choose the GMT Master II C.

nauticajoe · 11 September 2010, 10:41 PM

Neither...I'm an ss guy.

ersnyder · 11 September 2010, 10:51 PM

GMT for me, but I would go with the SS over the TT.

BigWatchFan · 11 September 2010, 11:21 PM

I'd go with the DJ 2 between those 2. Really not a fan of the GMT...

same for me

JP(Canada) · 12 September 2010, 12:08 AM

I'm torn on that one. Probably the GMT II C in two tone...just because I like the two tone more on that watch than I actually like the steel. Looks like it'll be a good choice no matter how you decide :)

rolexrenegade · 12 September 2010, 12:13 AM

I would pick the GMT for sure

Pix · 12 September 2010, 12:13 AM

Gmt m2

Brushpup · 12 September 2010, 12:14 AM

GMT Hands down.....not a fan of the DJ II at all.

Art 1 · 12 September 2010, 12:16 AM

Gmt.

slcbbrown · 12 September 2010, 12:20 AM

I'm a DJ fan, but I'd always go with the classic which in this case is the GMT.

aveavea · 20 September 2010, 07:10 PM

I have the same problem.
I cant decide between DJ with roman dials and GMT master II.
Check my thread.

The more i look at the GMT II pics the more i like it.
I am invited to a cocktail party at Rolex and will make my final decision.
