Side by side shot of GMT IIc and Milgauss GV

Can someone show me a side by side shot of the GMT IIc and the GV, and to give me an idea of how much thicker the GV is. Thanks.

I'm picking up my GV next week in London, and definitely looking forward to being able to take the same pic. GMTIIc already on the arm. Nice pic. Thanks!

The "thickness" dimension is a little misleading, as the watches wear really differently. I tried them both on at an AD on the same day, swapping back and forth between the two. The GMTII-C rides higher and flatter because of the thicker caseback and flat case shape. The Milgauss wears a little more closely to the wrist and feels like it curves around the wrist, thanks to the lugs.

Personally, and it will vary from wrist to wrist, I thought the Milgauss wore much more comfortably.

Both are beautiful watches and it would be hard to make a choice between the two...as to what to wear on any given day!!!
