Like most of you, I am a watch enthusiast and admirer at heart. Follow my watch journey @ instagram.com/hafizjmehmood/
I wouldn't be doing videos to spread the awareness and share the passion, if this wasn't all for the love of watches.
Great video but overrated watches.
@@Jay-xr3sb Respectfully disagree. These are amazing quality machines. Price and availability are an issue but don't detract from the horological history and lineage of these 2 icons.
@@tarjas that's just you opinion and I gave mine. Sure they are well known and hyped. Most would buy them because its free money or the rep of having an exclusive watch.
Take the name off the dial and they are that's special. The pre ceramics updated then I would love one.
@@Jay-xr3sbbang for buck it’s near perfect as opposed to actual hyped watches in the Rolex lineup and other hyped watches that try to compete
Another great vid! Especially like the end quote, "not watching to decide which one to buy, but rather which one to buy first". How true!
Hafiz, your on-wrist shots of watches are unmatched. They really give you a sense of what these would be like to wear. Nice work!
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.
I agree. About selling the Rolex, I mean 😆
Couldn't agree more
Agree!
Great point on the jubilee
I agree! My Pepsi is on jubilee! I didn't want to get it in oyster..it would be too similar to the sub
I don’t comment often on videos, but I must say: this channel is a great find. Your videos are high quality and really help the decision making process. Excellent videography and watch perspective. Particularly like the on-wrist shots - POV and third person give a good sense. Breadth of watches reviewed and compared is also very impressive.
I agree 100%
Same.. 100% agree. Impeccable video quality!! Great reviews.
The Sub 124060 (no date) outshines both in this video; it’s simple symmetrical design is unmatched
as a GS owner, i keep coming back to your video and want to get myself a rolex one day. cheers
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.
that's awesome. as you an tell by my profile pic, I'm looking into getting a GMT :))
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.
GENIUS way of doing wrist rolls and candid on-the-wrist shots. Bravo
Been waiting for this like a child on the eve of their birthday, Hafiz your content is the best!
👍Marco pulp
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.
That closing comment was spot on! Having a Pepsi I am contemplating buying a Sub! Great review. Beat on RUclips!
If I am not wrong the 40mm SubC lug is a hair thicker than the GMT. At least that was how it look when I bought my black GMT back in 2018 when I had the chance to try and choose between the GMT and the Sub at the AD.
Thank you Sir for making all these Pepsi videos which help make the wait for mine a little easier! I absolutely love the colors on the bezel of the latest model!
The synchronised seconds hands is ohh soo satisfying. Tq Hafiz. Such details is expected from you. Great comparison. Keep up the inspiring work.
The shape of the hands are actually slightly different between the GMT and the sub - the GMT has a fatter/shorter triangle at the tip
The Pepsi look stunning beside the sub
I love the gmt , but it’s beautiful 🤩 on the jubilee bracelet
Yup, preferable on the jubilee.
Another great review!! Talk about details (i.e showing exact time of both watches) thank you again!
To be honest, they look almost exactly alike except for a bit more colour. Silly to own both with so many great choices out there besides Rolex. I own a sub and was going to buy a GMT but just not worth it. Took a Glashutte Original Seaq Pano date instead. Own a Daytona as well
Another great video! Would love to see you create a video on all the time pieces you own and the reason behind your selection. There is so much depth and knowledge in each of your video that I am sure your audience will enjoy to hear what drives you to buy a watch for your personal collection.
“Which one to buy first.” Love that last line.
That’s not a submariner it’s a submariner with date.
What a superb video,featuring two iconic watches.
Great video Hafiz. Stunning and artistic cinematography along with a relaxing and informative dialogue. If you don't want a Rolex you will after watching your video! I have the 126610LN and I really think it is the perfect watch. The best elements of all my other prior Rolexs (SD4k, 5 digit polar explorer and 114060 sub). I love the GMT Pepsi but wouldn't trade my Sub date for one, once you have the glidelock nothing else compares for comfort of wear! Subscribed!
Oeyster or Jubilee for GMT?🤔
Hafiz you did a great comparison between those two, hopefully your channel will grow more! You bring it over with excellent knowledge and it’s nice to watch, better than some adverts 😂
Great video. The question which to buy first is rhetoric, as you're not able to get one of them...
I definitely prefer a steel or aluminium bezel, but lovely video nonetheless... Hope to get the Speedy / Explorer 1 one day
Speculation prices not suitable world wide especially in HK market
Hafiz, I watch so many watch videos every day, but I have to give you compliments, that your videos have one of the bests watch shots and close-up recordings! Very very well done!
Your last comment is on point! Not which one to buy, but which one to buy first. I have all of it and love it all
I have always been disappointed that the hands on the Submariners are less substantial than the GMTs, when for diving purposes they ought to be the other way round. The GMT is the perfect design; the Subs will be if their hands are enlarged,
The hue of the BLRO bezel is still all wrong. The new Submariner looks miles better. The design continuity of the Submariner is just spot on perfect.
Agree . The BLNR doesn’t do it for me . In lower night it looks like a sub anyway
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.
Availability says otherwise
For day to day wouldn’t you get slightly tired from GMT’s colourful bezel? Great looking watch don’t get me wrong but overtime I feel you might get over it. Opinion?
Hafiz, I‘ve just found your channel - your videos are really great. 👌
I would love to see a comparison video between Pepsi on Oyster and Pepsi on Jubilee. It seems to be impossible for me to decide which one is best.
Hello friend. Have you made your decision in choosing the Oyster or Jubilee? I also am always debating between the two options...
Definitely need a cigarette after watching that 4k watch porn.. great video Hafiz.
You have a great voice. Calm, soothing and the slight accent gives it a bit of originality.
Professional review, with the finest of details exposed 2 great watches, that every watch enthusiast must have in their collection!
Pepsi looks like a Drag queen alter ego of a Submariner.
Another excellent video of two stunning watches... Thank you Hafiz. In the UK, as in other countries, the problem is supply... but we can dream...
Imagine wearing a Batman GMT-Master and then some guy compliment: Nice Sub bro
Oh my god
I would absolutely lose it
😜🤪😁
Imagine they don't really care
@@Jay-xr3sb I know
Imagine they see it and then attempt to chop your wrist off!!!
@@solefreak2 how funny would that be 💩
Another great video! I always appreciate your macro shots! What lens do you use please?
I feel like the Pepsi needs a jubilee bracelet.
Супер сказано, -
Не чтобы выбрать какой из них купить, а сделать выбор какой купить первым!
Супер! Спасибо!
Hi Hafiz, great video as always. Quick question - does this GMT have an AR coating in the inside just like the 41mm sub? Are the laser etched coronet the same on both?
You can measure three diff time zones as I can see it ( don t own gmt watch ). First normal hour/min time. Second with bezzel aligned with hour mark and THIRD with that gmt hour arrow ( how do you call that?? ) Am I wrong??=
With the glide clasp compared to the easy link, what is the difference in LENGTH of the clasps. (You said the Sub width was one mm wider, how about length?)
5 MM
Own both watches the exact same one Couldn’t be more happier to own two of the most iconic Rolex model The sub 41 & GMT Pepsi Oyster
Well done, Hafiz. A great video. I do however prefer the Pepsi on a jubilee. I think the GMT Master II is now only second to the Daytona in desirability and has taken over from the Submariner.
I have both, Pepsi in jubilee, so they wear completely different. I wish they were slimmer and a bit smaller. Even though I have 7 inch wrist.
You know, I watch a lot of Rolex videos and yours are by far my favorite ones. Keep it up.
Love your videos Hafiz, well done !!
When is Rolex bringing back the all black GMT with the red hand or the Coke?
and then you have the white gold with meteorite dial GMT's... in a league all on it's own.
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.
The sub definitely should have been kept at 40mm ☹️ there was no reason to change it… If anything was to be upsized then it would be the Daytona because it’s a chronograph but it would still be pointless really
It’s basically the same size as the old one..I have both. Only the 41 wears slightly better with thinner lugs and wider bracelet. Try them both on and you’ll see. The difference in size is 0.3mm you’ll never be able to tell
@@andrewbrown5636 I still prefer the original 🤷🏻♂️ just can’t get my head around changing something that’s been perfect for so long haha
@@thatmexicanguy2989 try the watches, they are same size
@@thatmexicanguy2989 original Submariner wasn't 40mm
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.
Great video! I just picked up a 41mm no date and I'm very happy with it. Can't stop looking at it!
The same question could be asked regarding the Tudor GMT and Black Bay 58... Which do you buy first 🤔?
Man, your quality of content is spot on. Keep it up. I'm a huge fan
I would appreciate it if you do an analysis on the new octo chrono on rubber 1033771. It has a bery different feel from the regular one in bracelet. May be you will like this one
All the info I needed in one video! Great editing and to the point info!
I just bought the Pepsi today. I’m very happy and very poor now
how much did you pay?
Superb compare and contrast. The Q is which one to buy 1st!
Both beautiful watches . I have the Sub ,and waiting for Pepsi . So know what you mean about , why not get both . Good comparison review 👍
Why not get both ! I can't even get one !
Your photograph/ video editing is top notch. Such an awesome watch video 😀
Why isnt anyone talking about the ugly large fonts on the gmt bezel? And how it looks like a toy..
Honestly don’t understand the super hype around it
Matching movements of the second hands! Respect!
I don’t usually leave comments, but I really enjoyed that. Thank you.
What about the weight? How come you never weigh the watches? The weight is very important when it comes to wearability.
Exactly, which one to buy first :,,,(.
If only the Submariner would have shiny inner links though.
The numbers on the GMT Master's Bezel are too chunky and take over the front of the watch.
Great videos bro, keep up the great work.
I'm thinking to myself if I should try and get the Pepsi for 3 years now. I got the 126610LN and your video is like perfect timing for my thinking process ;) Thank you and now I'm finishing the video, which will be top notch quality as ever.
Man, the quality of this shots are top notch.
Are the bracelets between the Sub and the GMT interchangeable?
What is the exact weight of rolex pepsi in grams ?
Edit - with the jubilee bracelet
142 grams
Really nice to see these videos. i myself are considering getting into watch collection after watching your videos
Beautiful photography
Beautiful watches, sadly they are made of unobtainium. :(
you synced the two dial to the second - very nice.interesting video/ close up shots . ~ JDS/CT
The Sub is way more elegant with the thinner lugs.
The best comparison and close up look video!!
GMT MASTER II
Wish the GMT had an option to have the bracelet all brush with no polished inner links.
You can source a 40mm Sub Bracelet with additional glidelock. 2 birds 1 stone ;)
Wow, very thorough analysis, things I would have never known, thank you👍
Very nice! Crisp shots, beautiful wristshots!
Exactly the video I was looking for. Thanks a lot!
As expected, another great informative video.
It did come down to witch I bought first , thanks
If i wanted to see someone comparing these 2 watches which i own, it would be this video. Thank you
Thanks, Haf. Splendid work as always.
Excellent comparison. Well done.
Been waiting for this, and again you spot the details no one else does. Is the new GMT carrying a super case though?
the lugs are a bit thicker than the new sub, but a bit thinner than the prior gen sub
@@MGrekt Indeed. And there for not a super case.
Great vid, Hafiz. As always. Good job.
need both. i prefer the BLNR. great vid.
Excellently Done !!! On the same page
Nice video mate 🥃
Glidelock system on sub is a W!!
My favorite watches 💎
Great video, Hafiz. Thanks.
Great work! Thank you!
Miss you Hafiz!
