GMTIIc.. ??

Or this beauty..??

I've already owned the GMTIIc previously, which I loved but didn't take to the PCL's.. Now I've come to terms with scratches and they are unavoidable..

As most if not all of you are aware I was going to get a gold Rolex not so long ago, price is the only issue..

Bi colour was an option, I was looking into a 116713LN GMTIIc, but once again, £8,500 is way out of my budget.. even with a discount!

So I'm back to good old hard wearing SS

You just can't go wrong!

Soo, whats your thoughts..

P.S - These watches are not defenite purchases, I'm just gathering some opinions.. Income thread soon.. Hmmm watch this space

GMTIIc

Gmt

Z-Sub · 27 July 2012, 07:01 AM

Both are gorgeous.

I'd say DJ since you already tried the GMT.

otherwise, I personally take GMT over the DJ in this round

roger0770 · 27 July 2012, 07:04 AM

JustABreathAway · 27 July 2012, 07:09 AM

gmt however the new smooth bezel is sweet

JustABreathAway · 27 July 2012, 07:15 AM

You could pull off a cool-dial DJ II - something modern, maybe?

There's a beautiful smooth-bezel DJ II Black dial Silver Romans that looks awesome, classic, and stylish all at once. Check it out...

That arabic DJII Dial is cool!!!?

Lanfor · 27 July 2012, 07:21 AM

Go for it bro ! The GMTII suits you really well and I know you regret getting rid of it originally

MortgageGuy · 27 July 2012, 07:22 AM

I say grab the IIc again Dino

Monte Cristo · 27 July 2012, 07:28 AM

DJII Arabic is really cool and quite sporty too!

SaddleSC · 27 July 2012, 07:29 AM

If you are not going to get the LVC back, then I say you go for the the DJII...I love that silver arabic dial. It adds a great youthful flair to a classic timepiece and the WG bezel will give you the flash that I know you love:)

Lagunatic · 27 July 2012, 07:31 AM

Mickey® · 27 July 2012, 07:32 AM

Thanks everyone, I actually don't have a favourate of the two.. Its a case or this or that..

cajunron · 27 July 2012, 07:41 AM

I think that DJII suits you to a T.

spuds · 27 July 2012, 07:47 AM

I had this exact same dilemma with the same two watches a coupla years ago Dino mate......

As you know i went for the GMTc but that's also still my favourite of the SS DJII's.

HOWEVER.....!

I honestly do think you're better off with the LVc and IF you ever flip it (ok WHEN you flip it!) i reckon you'll lose less money on the Sub.

Can't go wrong whichever way you choose to go mate two (or three?) great choices there IMO.

nauticajoe · 27 July 2012, 07:56 AM

116710 for me.

Thanks Dan.. You really are da' man!

I'm going to try and "test drive" the DJII & GMTIIc for a few days if I can get hold of one..
