This would be my choice of GMT, knocks the Rolex GMT's out of the park IMHO.

Low key, subtle, beautiful, stylish, elegant, understated.

What's not to like.

Neither. A BLRO or a BLNR are the ones for me.

Well, there's only one stand out listed in your post, so it would be a pretty easy choice.

I can hardly imagine a righty buying a VTNR, other than due to perceived scarcity. If you're a lefty......sure!

I do think the meteorite GMT is the best looking of the meteorite Rolexes.

Both of these ! When the light is unfavorable and I can´t read the meteorite on the left hand, I can read the times on my old 1675 on the right hand.

I think the blue dial wg "pepsi" is my favorite of them all. Of the two you mentioned the meteorite by a mile. I don't like the VTNR much at all.
