The DD would be my first choice before buying the GMT.

Gladiat0r · 11 June 2023, 12:53 PM

DD40. It’s THE gold Rolex.
Also, the Presidential bracelet is unique to the DD and quite special and iconic.

The DD is no doubt gorgeous but more dressy than the gmt or gold sub.
Get what you like. I picked this.

Day Date is the classic but I would go GMT!

JJGreen · 11 June 2023, 11:10 PM

My opinion would depends on what you wear most often. If it's on the slightly dressier side I would go DD. If it's very casual, the GMT (or Sub).

DD over GMT. But Full PM Daytona over DD.

The DD for the first

joli160 · 12 June 2023, 12:51 AM

For me the DD is one of the most beautiful watches around and the President bracelet is amazing

dlddrrr · 12 June 2023, 01:51 AM

I would’ve said DD before for the president bracelet but after watching Arnold I say go for the yellow gold GMT lol

bullies · 12 June 2023, 02:12 AM

I have the DD40 with white Roman and it is beautiful

downtorock · 14 June 2023, 10:34 AM

WILLIWALKER · 14 June 2023, 06:06 PM

DD for sure !!

This is my first all-gold watch (bracelet and case). The DD40 was an obvious choice, yellow gold too.
I had hesitated with the platinum version but for several reasons (the warmth and the unique feeling of yellow gold but also to take pleasure gradually), the yellow gold version was just the watch I needed.

So I recommend the DD without a shadow of a doubt!

Not to be crass, but the DD looks as though they’ve been stuck in a time capsule since 1956.

travisb · 14 June 2023, 07:28 PM

I went with the GMT for my first because I prefer the look of the professional models. Have owned DDs as well. Go with the look that suits you best.

I saw this and immediately said "wow that's a tough one" both if you can, but I say go for the Gold GMT Master II

brandrea · 14 June 2023, 11:36 PM

When I think of precious metal Rolex, my mind immediately goes to the Day Date

KeobNepo · 14 June 2023, 11:37 PM

definitely DD, because this reference is PM in it's essence. GMT initially is an SS reference.

TheWatchmen · 15 June 2023, 12:30 AM

Gold sport watches are gaudy to me, I’d go for one of these, and did!
