I would not. It is not a very versatile piece IMHO. Now, if you already have another watch, then sure thing.

A friend of mine pulled an original blue face sub out of a coffee can over the fridge at his grandmother's house when grandpa died (seriously, this really happened!).

He had it serviced / etc. and wore it to work for a little while - eventually, he ended up putting it in the drawer for safe keeping because it was just 'too out there' for everyday work in the IT shop. At least that's what he concluded.

Nope.

If you love the TT Sub c why not, of course this depends on what "some" money means. IMHO, I love the look of TT on everyone and in pics but whenever I get one for myself it just does not last long... I am a jeans a t shirt kind of guy and it just isnt me. That being said I have a TT GMT c right now

MY-WATCH · 8 October 2011, 01:53 PM

How much to be paid in diffrence ?

Rolex Junky · 8 October 2011, 02:07 PM

No. And that is coming from someone that loges tt.

iLLGT2 · 8 October 2011, 02:09 PM

I'm in this same dilemma right now..Have a Sub C already and a new GMT II C in the box... I put it on the wrist and it's just flat, doesn't wear as nice as the sub c or my deepsea, i guess just due to the case back.. Just feels so much smaller

Recently came across this (loving the blue tones) and after not being able to source a blue ceramic bezel for my sub c to create the "shark" , and not wanting to spend the crazy dough for the white gold variant, this really looks great...

I would say go for it, you can always get another GMT II C whenever !

EDT3 · 8 October 2011, 02:25 PM

Nope. Keep the GMT.

cgjane · 8 October 2011, 02:27 PM

Bluesy is my favorite Sub...I have a 16613, will get the SubC version sometime in the future.

Saxon007 · 8 October 2011, 02:51 PM

I would not.

CH69 · 8 October 2011, 03:15 PM

I wouldn't...

Ditto.

nope

watchf · 8 October 2011, 04:29 PM

YES unless you are trading a YG GMTIIc for the TT blue Subc then I would say no.

CharlieSF · 8 October 2011, 05:55 PM

Not a chance - unless it was for the TTIIC which looks better than the TT Subs.

mjrennie · 8 October 2011, 07:39 PM

Of course. We have the blue and black in our house and I am able to switch between them using a re-sizing kit. The blue is way better than the black, though the black always seems to be more photogenic, for some reason. TT Sub over a GMT is a trade I'd do without thought.

slcbbrown · 8 October 2011, 09:35 PM

sure

tifosi · 8 October 2011, 09:49 PM

I prefer the Sub over the GMT. So yes I would. Which do you prefer?

BigMac53 · 8 October 2011, 09:54 PM

Not I

So beautiful, I think i'm sold...

I love the GMT C, but as I said wears too flat giving the appearance of it being much smaller than the SUB on my bigger wrist.. It's a weird illusion, but 'WE' must love what we wear, and be happy with it too right? I'm going to go for it, and then pick up a GMT II pepsi for my GMT needs
