It really depends on what your collection consists of at this time. All different watches. I think you will get responses based the their preferences. If you have a pic of your other watches then the forum could give better suggestions based on what you already have.

Going blind I would lean towards the YM or Pepsi GMT.

well, i think the YM for 2012 is actually a 116622.

the YM and the HULK are the newer versions with the updated bracelet and clasp.

the GMT is a winner, but has the older dial and the older bracelet. it really depends on what you are looking for.

i just picked up a 116622 and i think it is the best watch i can imagine. it has the upgrades, but also has the smaller, sleeker case. i think it is the best of all worlds. i would choose that. it is a little playful with the blue dial but it also has the ability to dress up or down.

but agree with Rick. you will get people telling you what they prefer, just as i did.

you should check them all out, try them on, and decide what works best for you.

Hulk and Yachtmaster already have the big cases, so why not go for the new ceramic bezeled GMT II which also has the newer more massive case (ok, it is not pepsi, but very nice)?

Cannot understand how anyone is confused about buying a Rolex watch, surely you have a mind of your own, just buy the watch you want its that simple

they're all so different (as other's have said)

imho between the YM & the hulk it's ultimately a preference thing as neither watch does anything that the other doesn't (perhaps WR?)

the GMT has the GMT function (funny that!), so if you truly love &/or need the GMT function this should aid your decision...

(I voted hulk as I love that watch)
