Green GMT... the only time I would pick a GMT over a sub.

Either. The GMT kills.

Blue Sub! Although the green GMT in person is very distinct, pictures hardly do it justice.

That's a really tough one..
I might give the slight edge to the GMT for that green dial which is even better than any pic I've seen.

From those 2 green GMT, but with that clothing would probably suggest something in WG or platinum (Platona if you still own it) as it is more under the radar

Both stunners but the sunburst blue just edges it.

Blue sub for me as green isn't my favorite color. A black and YG watch would be even more flexible.

Sub hands down. Not a fan of the pool table green GMT dial. Black suits it much better, IMO

you can't go wrong with either choice, GMT possibly more versatile for a daily wearer.

Yes the WG or PT works for sure, just strictly going for YG opinion though

Bluesy YG Sub 24/7 365... No Contest as far as I'm concerned...
Not that the YG GMT is anything to sneer at...
I just prefer blue over green anytime anywhere...

Well, as I own one, my vote was obvious.

I have seen the GMT in person as well, and while I like it, I wish the bezel wasn't black, because the three colors going on is just too much for me.

Love both but would but the GMT. Then again, out of all Rolex models, I'd get a YG YMII first.
