Anyone ever needed (or wanted) to keep track of three timezones simultaneously?

Yes. Long haul pilots.

Local time at departure, local time at arrival and GMT (for tech logs and TAFs/METARs).

[learningtofly]

And dealers.

The kind with lots of phones,

From the opinion pole they all seem to be loved in equal measure. My friend had a GMT with pepsi dial. Absolutely gorgeous and remember his father wearing it when we were kids.It is now somewhere in the Med just off the coat of Mallorca if anyone wants to go looking for it.

Let's face it - those of us that have a GMT of any kind - are very happy with their watches.

Never used to like rolex watches until I saw the GMT 2C. Always thought they were a bit bland, definitely something that grows on you, now however I want one. A lot. :(

I want mine a lot - I need to wait just 7 days now.....

It's a birthday present, waiting for me in a drawer and it's currently driving my crazy!!!!!!!!!!

Enjoy it.

In fairness to the wife, I am allowed to wear it this weekend. I'm off to my parents this weekend as I can't see them next weekend when my actual 40th is. She has agreed that I can wear it and show it to them, Result.

That's tantamount to Chinese water torture. Is she really so heartless as to make you put it away again for a week!

[Omegamanic]

Can't believe how even this came out!

I still see no advantage to the 16710 over the same movement in the 16750 - maybe if someone was after the 3186 movement in the 16710 case there might be a small argument to best of breed - but then I'd rather have the GMTIIc with the same movement and much better bracelet - that said I am fed up with mine and it will have to go back to Rolex at some stage - very disappointing for modern Rolex that has been home and "fixed" once!

Say that again? :?:

I tried to take my 16710 off today, I'd just had a new strap fitted to my seiko sportura. I know that's not really fair watch to compare with so i won't. However, the 16710 was back on within an hour.

I can't take the bloody thing off. It ooozes class.

[pembers]

That looks the dogs with the nato lad!! really 'pings' out at you.

[jrpippen]

New arrival today.

Crappy iPhone pic. Il get better ones soon.

Another one (GMT 16750 this time?)?! :lol:

Jubilees are ace :wink:

[jrpippen]

It's a 16753.

It's stunning mate. Will be selling just about everything else in a minute to keep it!!

[S.L]

I've not been a great fan of Rolex but I admit this one has impressed me,



Very pleased with it.
Currently wearing it on a Hirsch Accent strap, a nice change from the PCL bracelet (but I'm ok with the bling, it suits the rest of the watch).

[jrpippen]

Show us a pic on the hirsch mate.

Crappy phone pic is all I have,



It does look better IRL.

That does "tool" it up somewhat. Looks great IMHO.

I managed to get my GMT master on the tele yesterday. S4C were doing coverage of the Welsh open brass band competition. I'm sure there will be only 4 viewers in abercwmscoot but still.

[crostonian]

Same with the Sub 116610 the bracelet looks too small for the lugs on the latest Sub/GMT

[Saxon007]

Mine is a 16750. Two looks for the same watch.

[ooral]

'C' for me, although i haven't had the pleasure of driving one! So purely on looks alone....

[Chinnock]

1675 - Vintage is the best!

My GMT 16753 at Westminster Abby in rehearsal for the Royal Wedding.

[Tai Mi Shu]

Cheers Jon. :roll:

Just got over this lust and you bump the thread...
Back to P1 I go. :lol:

BTW, what colour is your Bridesmaid dress going to be? :shock: :albino:

Is that you, Wills??

My GMT 16753 at Westminster Abby in rehearsal for the Royal Wedding.

What job are you doing on the wedding?

[jrpippen]

I thought I'd go for pink but apparently blue is more appropriate! ;-)

I'm in the RAF fanfare team for the wedding. Will be a nice gig.

[100thmonkey]

Nothing like blowing your own trumpet

[hugo2703]

A little late but check out my GMTIIc.
I have not acquired any other GMT so i can't compare but trust me when i say that the GMTIIc is brilliant. Maybe a little shiny but you can see from the picture that i found a remedy to this problem.

I also have a Nato "bond with a twist" due to arrive in a few days. I'll defo post pics!

[jrpippen]

I was going to buy a GMTc new, which is a massive jump for me as i think used is the way you should always go with these. I was all set and then. . .

I turned the bezel and it only had 24 clicks!! Gutted.

[Skyman]

I am pleased to now be able to vote on this one. An unqualified -

I like the way your GMT seem to be posing. The flex in the bracelet gives the impression that the watch is a comfortably lying on the beach...naked.

[Skyman]

Now you come to mention it............ :wink:

Is that a bit like seeing nude figures in ink smudges?

[Tai Mi Shu]

Dear Lord...

I know I don't believe in you but please prove me wrong.
Please help me to resist selling my Breitlings in order that I may buy a GMT.

Thank you.

Come on Victoria. You know what to do.

That little voice in the back of your head is not the almighty. Is the WIS god telling you you NEED a GMT!

I know but I need some time to get dry from a spell at [s:15spb564]Deep[/s:15spb564]Sea :wink:

[a900ss]

Has anybody got a picture of a GMTc on a nice black leather strap? I want to have a look at what it's like before I decide if I wish to take the plunge.

Thanks.

[jrpippen]

Recently added a jubilee to the accessories. Gives the gmt2 a totally different feel and I like it.

:-)

[ian964]

1675 - I've had this since new in 1980, well used but still going strong!

[jrpippen]

So the "c" is loosing by 14 votes!

Obviously the GMT and GMT2 are both classics. :-)

The old case is such a class act. Why on earth did they change it! It's a little like rolls and Bently. Now it's just a little too fat, where as before it had some sort of x factor that you can't quite buy! Sleek, cool classy classic, understated.
