Yet another "What should I buy?" thread
So..I am going to buy either the GMT IIC or the new Explorer wth the white dial. I have the green submariner already and I just sold my Pepsi to fund this purchase.
Which one and why?

My choice would be the GMTIIC. Because this was the first Rolex I ever purchased and I liked it from the moment I saw it.
You should do the same, and get the one you like the most.

Explorer 2 because it's something different from your sub. Both would work fine, though.

What are your pros and cons for these two choices?

A white dial is always a nice change from the traditional black dial we see on SS sport watches

GMT for me, it looks more fancy than the Exp-II and therefore would be a bit more versatile.
