Well, I'm still learning about the wonderful world of PANERAI, but a good comparison with the GMT (if a dual timezone watch is in the mix) might be the 88 (or 297 if you can find one.

Here's a bit of a poor comparison,

Almost bought the GMT 8 day reserve but backed out for the DSSD and i have absolutely no regrets. Pan's day will come to me but which one's for me is another thing...

I'd say GMT2C as well since you already have a daytona

If I was in your place I would sell the TT Daytona, and buy the SS Daytona and the GMTc. But this is just me. Let us know what you decide.

GMTIIc is my choice. I do like the Panerai, but just not worth the $ at this point until their works are all in house.

Both look great. That is one good looking Panerai.

GMT IIc would be my pick. But a white-dial Daylight is also a very nice watch...hmmm

Rolex movements are in-house so I believe you're getting your moneys worth on that purchase. Pans are nice watches but a lot of the are ETA movements(great movements but not in-house). Good luck on your decision.
