I like the GMT II the most.

I don't like Rolex messing with Sub in any way

YM looks good but my own personal style veres more towards the GMT.

Well the green of the sub and GMT would clash with the yellow of bananas so it has to be the "Platty" Do I win a prize?

No wonder they are flipped so often instead of going to RSC they have to go into RTC (Rolex therapy centre)

WOW
What is up with all the OLD JJ threads coming back???
They are great posts don't get me wrong its just wild seeing sooo many
old posts coming back to the top.

Also, this pole is no longer valid as the DSSD is a Maxi Dial as well

My vote's for the LV. The dial really gave the Sub a fresh and updated look.

P.S. Hey JJ, how's your eye feeling?
