GMT was my preference. Though the black sub a close second. The blue sub was just a bit too much for my tastes, but depends how flashy you are looking to go! I find them all too flashy now, but really enjoyed the YG GMT for a good 3 years using it daily.

Two great watches, so very tough call. I would ask what else is in your collection and if this is your first or only PM piece.

My default vote would be sub, but the answers to those questions could change that.

I would choose the sub. Both are lovely but the blue dial is stunning with the yellow gold.

Not a second thought - the GMT II. To me, yellow gold is already a bit of bling (white gold? That's different!!); the so called 'bluesy' is too much.

I prefer the green dial GMT over the black. So between your choices blue Sub all day

I had both too and kept the Subc, I rate sunburst dials, which Rolex make so very well, at a premium these days.

16618 or 116618?
Either way, I'd go sub. Just don't over pay if it's a 5 digit.
