    i had both (sold the sub), i think the sub's cleaner dial makes it more suitable for formal occasions. less numbers and the font is smaller. btw, i learned my lesson - never sell a rolex unless it is a life or death situation. lol. If you must have both- GMT on jubilee bracelet and the sub on oyster is a better combo.

    Great video. I'm blessed to own both, both LN's. I used to wish they both weren't LN's but now I have come to realize how different they are on my wrist. How they both wear differently feel different and both give off a different Vib. I prefer the GMT just by a hair, probably because of its aviation connection and my connection through interest in planes since my youth and Forty years of my career around planes. Water and diving not so much. I got the Sub second because of its iconic status. Like most diver watch owners mine gets wet mostly when I wash a dish or take the occasional dip in the pool. It was great learning all those little differences between them thanks.

      My first Rolex was the Submariner 23 years ago. I still have it. Next came the Datejust 41, 5 years ago, and just recently, finally purchased the GMT Master ii Batman on Jubilee to celebrate 29 years wedding anniversary.The GMT was my Grail watch. It's so similar to the Submariner in many ways. The new maxi case makes everything look bigger. Especially the dial, hands and markers. All of these time pieces are works or art and will last forever if you take care of them.

    A very well done, unbiased video. Speaking from experience. My first GMT was given to me as a gift in 1967. I bought the submariner in 1976. So I’ve been wearing ROLEX for 55 years. Both my submariner and Pepsi were bought sept. 2022.
    No question about it for me it’s the Pepsi . Nothing against the submariner since I do own one. However, the sub for me seems just a little too boring. I do enjoy the GMT especially when I’m in the kitchen cooking and I want to time something in the oven. I can turn the bezel either way. a lot faster to get there than the sub only counter clockwise. it comes down to this. What do you like better, Toyota or Nissan both will get the job done. Both have little idiosyncrasies about them. So you can’t go wrong with the sub or the GMT get one and you’ll never be sorry for it, and you’ll never get cold feet with what you just bought.

      The bezel of the 6 digit GMTs doesn't do it for me either - the font/number size just doesn't seem right. Too ostentatious and chintzy IMO. I absolutely love the 5 digit holes case pepsis but the lack of glidelock or easy link at that price point just isn't palatable to me at the moment. Glidelock is a game changer.

    I may be in the minority, however, I much prefer the Sub. The GMT Pepsi looks too bright with the red (almost pink ceramic) and the blue. It doesn't look elegant. It looks a bit childish.
    In fact, I would argue the Tudor GMT Diet Pepsi's colors of burgundy and dark navy look significantly more elegant.

      @theINQBS Год назад

      I completely disagree. The problem I will always have and the reason I'd never buy myself a Rolex is their minuscule size. I have a thicker wrist and LARGE hands (can pam a basketball) and any Rolex looks like a lady's model on me. If your wrist is more dainty like the person in this video, then it looks large enough.
      And then there's the comfort factor… The FLAT edges on the bottom of the case are sharp and if you wear watches all day every day as I do, that harsh edge begins to present itself int he way of comfort. I think tradition is great and all, but I don't see any reason products can't be improved given how easy it is to do so today. A slight rounding and even an angled taper to the bottom of the case would go a very long way towards making these watches wear in such a way you don't notice they're on your wrist. Wider rings have included comfort fit for decades now and they make all the difference in comfort and wearability.
      While Rolex are superb watches, there are better watches at significantly better price points. The only Rolex worth its price tag is the Milgauss. I find all others to be unjustifiably overpriced.
