I struggled with that exact dilemma. Went w the Sub, got out of it quickly there after - regret it to this day. Ill surely be picking up one of the two again soon. Decisions decisions...

Ancillary question... Why does the sub have PCL?

Close for me. GMT for the smaller clasp, narrower lugs and a better Bezel.. Slightly cheaper as well.

I'd choose the 116718 with black dial if it were an option, but between those two I go Sub. Just not a fan of the green dial, sorry!

No one asked but my answer might depend on the rest of your collection. Aesthetics- I think the blue sub is a better looking watch as an objet d'art. It's gorgeous. On the wrist, I think I'd lean towards the GMT- the GMT is more unique and has a bit more personality while simultaneously being a little quieter. Perhaps the YG sunburst sub is a victim of its own success.

Opinions split 50/50 seems like. In the end, you guys were no help at all.
Just kidding. Appreciate the feedback and input. Verdict: Blue dial Sub. Ultra-looking forward to receiving. Thanks all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I should add, I'm 50% of the way there. And when the time comes, I'll probably add the green dial 718 👍🏽👍🏽 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Really tough choice ... I'd vote the Sub a whisker mainly due to the Glidelock.
Edit, great choice

Great choice!!
For me for summer, the blue sunburst > flat green.

Great choice now and get the GMT to keep you warm in winter, that is actually exactly what I did.

Help. 24h to decide. 116618 or 116718
Almost just had a heart attack. Sent payment this morning. Just got a message from dealer it was sent to wrong email address (dealer mistakenly omitted one letter).
Fortunately, was able to sort it out. Whew. Will be relieved and super happy when I have the watch in hand. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
