Hi guys... I'm a bit late but better late than never... Like this shot? I'm an awful photographer... the dial always has reflections Hey JP, nice shot man!! Always like to see new shots of that sharp watch.

Great pic JP! I much prefer the Black over the Blue.

I much prefer the Black over the Blue. I agree. I'm not much of a TT fan, but that one looks good....more classy than the blue dial.

Thanks guys... Sam: Yes I love the GMT Master but I haven't decided yet. The only thing that bothers me in GMT is the short clasp and somewhat light "feel". And if I buy it I definitely need both color combos... black/red and Pepsi. I've been thinking about getting a vintage no-date Sub too... beautiful... Seeing those vintages from Hannes' and Clifton's collections... priceless.

The only thing that bothers me in GMT is the short clasp and somewhat light "feel". That's funny JP...the smaller clasp is one of the things I like about the GMT over the SUB. I really haven't noticed any weight difference between the SUB & GMT. I'm sure we could consult JJ's spreadsheet for exact weights.

127 gr. for the GMT,135gr. for the Sub.
I do rather like the clasp on the GMT,think the watch sits a little lower too.

Wow... the weight difference is really small between Sub and GMT. Strange. Maybe it's just the "light feel" of the clasp without diver's extension then...? However I compared it to my TT Sub (which must be heavier than SS) and Omega SMP (that I was wearing at the moment).
Mike: Beautiful no-date... there's something elegant about that watch... and those "yellowish" hour markers look great...
I've seen many interesting watches for sale in the US but being in EU I always have the customs risk... tax rate is 22% for all items ordered outside EU... and there are very few EU-based online sellers. Any ideas?
