Hi everyone,
I am thinking about to buy another watch soon.
But the problem that I have is that I cannot decide which to choose from.

GMT II C or The new Submariner C????

Now, this is a great problem to have

????

Hope that you can help med with the best advices and the experience you have with these watches.

Have a great day

Can't go wrong with either model!
Have you tried them both on?

Runnin' Rebel · 27 July 2011, 05:39 PM

Thomas speaks the truth on this

tomallen · 27 July 2011, 05:45 PM

I have said this before, You have it narrowed down to two watches, buy the best deal first then save for the other. You will not be satisfied with your choice and crave the other.

EE33 · 27 July 2011, 05:51 PM

I'd go the GMT II C.

Andad · 27 July 2011, 06:06 PM

The SS Datejust with the WG bezel is a beaut now IMO you need a GMT II TTc.

No, I am planning to do so soon. But I know that I can't go wrong.
The main thing that I am wondering about is the difference in the clock work??

Which is better??

Well, maybe some day i'll have them both, but for now I can only choose one of them.

wokafu · 27 July 2011, 06:55 PM

Sub c....!

SilverSun · 27 July 2011, 07:43 PM

hmmm which is better...all depends which you like the look of really and if diving or the 24 hour hand complication is of any genuine use to you.

I personally would say the sub-c as I think its a better looking watch and more tool-like and not so shiny and flashy like the GMT - plus I personally have never been a fan of polished centre link bracelets. Ony downside to the sub-c is that loooads of people have them which is not necerssarily a bad thing but there are probably less GMT II C's in the wild than sub-c's.

Either way you cant go wrong

harrishc · 27 July 2011, 07:48 PM

Can't go wrong either way. Chances are you will eventually get the other one as well. Trust me, you won't stop at one. It also depends on your current collection. If I can only get one, I will go for subc.

dddrees · 27 July 2011, 08:26 PM

As said previously, you can't go wrong with etiher choice. It really just depends on which one you like the most. I chose the GMTCII myself.

nauticajoe · 27 July 2011, 08:59 PM

Both awesome watches! You need to try both on to see which one smiles back. I would lean towards the SubC.

Good luck!

Sherwooddavid · 27 July 2011, 09:01 PM

Sub C !

speedo · 27 July 2011, 09:44 PM

have a very similar dj and opted for the sub-c. no regrets here, but i am sure you wouldn't have regrets if you bought the gmt either. both great watces and both complement the dj.

SWIMPRUF · 27 July 2011, 10:43 PM

GMT for me.

rogerrabbit168 · 27 July 2011, 10:49 PM

SubC for me, although I want a GMTIIC also, haha

either one is a good choice

Speed · 27 July 2011, 10:49 PM

Both watches give time equally well.

You may have to spend more time adjusting the GMT if you dont keep it wound.

landroverking · 27 July 2011, 10:57 PM

If you travel at all the GMT

sideslip · 27 July 2011, 11:08 PM

gmt2c.......

rolexsweep · 27 July 2011, 11:15 PM

It's a tough one, try them on and what you like pick!

BH13GMT · 27 July 2011, 11:36 PM

which is more important?

Dual/triple timezone facility
or
Time lapsed Bezel

When you have chosen, start saving for the other one. The guys on this thread are not lying.

post some pics when its all done and dusted.

Good luck

drockadam · 28 July 2011, 12:11 AM

Go for the Sub-C! The 116610LN or LV are gorgeous models!

blackout · 28 July 2011, 12:20 AM

I have both and love both!.. But! I personally feel that I get more bang for the buck out of my GMT2c

Grissom · 28 July 2011, 12:26 AM

If you like them both the same, go for the better deal, first, or......

MortgageGuy · 28 July 2011, 02:24 AM

Yes you cannot go wrong with wither one, they are both amazing
