Keep Sell Trade - GMT’s

You know the rules. Keep one, sell one, trade one (within $1000).

This round is for GMT’s. Everyone loves a good GMT. Do I have one? No. Not yet, but I will. The hard part is deciding which one. There’s so many out there. Let’s take a look at our contestants.

1: Grand Seiko Elegance GMT - $6,800

2: Rolex GMT-Master II - $10,900

3: Longines Spirit Zulu Time - $2,950

I mean, the Rolex is the end all be all for GMTs if you can get one at retail.

Assuming you can’t get one at retail, I’d skip the GS and keep the Longines forever.

1. Keep the GS because it's gorgeous and versatile

2. Sell the Rolex because I don't resonate with the brand values and there's profit to be made

3. Trade the Zulu for a secondhand mid-size Omega 300M

Keep - Rolex GMT Master II

Sell - GS Elefance GMT

Trade - Longines Zulu Time

Zulu time for a Tudor BB Pro.

I feel like I should be able to spend the money from my sell…

Same. Keep Pepsi, sell GS, trade Zulu for another Zulu 😂

Keep: Longines, it suits my style preferences, and is not too flashy.

Trade: GMT Master II, I'd swap it for a Globemaster. Less flash, and a good mix of dressy/casual.

Sell: GS... I don't like anything about the design apart from the way the second time zone is tracked/displayed. I like the GMT hand being short, with the GMT markings inside the main time telling markings.

Sell the Pepsi!?

In a heartbeat. I dislike everything about the Rolex aesthetic, from the mercedes hands, the cyclop, the tacky maxi case all the way down to the font choices. It's not for me so I would sell it for profit and take advantage of the flex culture driven secondary market prices if I was ever given one. 😅

This breaks my heart, but I get it. 😂

Keep Pepsi! That’s the original GMT everyone bases their models after. Hands down, you have to keep.

Grand Seiko… Hmmm, I don’t like this game anymore. Hahaha I would trade it out for the same but with the green dial!

I’d sell the longines.

In any case, don't let my aesthetic preferences and taste affect your enjoyment of the watch!

Different strokes for different folks. Thankfully this hobby has a great variety of styles for everyone to find an aesthetic language that speaks to them! Otherwise we would all have the same 5 watches and we wouldn't have much to talk about on Watch Crunch! 😂

Keep the Rolex, sell the GS, and trade the Zulu for a CW GMT

·

my option: DIY a GMT costing under $100.00 and spend the rest on my kids.

·

Sell the Rolex, keep the GS and trade the Zulu

Keep the Longines

Trade the GS for a IWC pilot's chronograph the 41mm one

Sell the Rolex

Ooooo IWC nice!

·

I would keep the Longines, sell the Rolex and trade the GS for an El Primero

·

Keep the Grand Seiko. I'm drawn to the style and design. When I look at my watch I want it to make me smile.

Sell the Rolex. I could care less about the hype. Plus I could make a profit.

Trade the Longines. It's a nice watch, but just like with the GS I want a bit more style and pop.

·
  1. Keep the GS

  2. Trade the Longines

  3. Sell the gawd awful Rolex.

·

I love the pepsi on jubilee but it’s probably too flashy (recognizable) for me so I’d sell it, keep the GS and use the cash and Zulu trade to buy an old Root Beer and/or a polar 16570.

·

I would definitely keep the Grand Seiko. Sell the Rolex and Trade the Spirit Zulu time for a Tudor Blackbay GMT.

·

Keep the GS, it’s a beauty and that high speed movement is smooth.

Sell the Rollie, the GNT master has never done much for me plus it’s worth the most.

Trade the Longines. Nice watch but I could spend that money elsewhere

·

Well, I already own the Longines Zulu Time, so i'm trading that, maybe for a Black Bay Pro.

I'm keeping the GMT Master II, (but pretending it's in Batman/Batgirl colours).

And i'm selling the Seiko. Sorry Seiko, just doesn't do anything for me.

·

End up with a Tudor , Sell the GS , keep the Rolex as it is awesome to have if you do have this watch and Trade the Longines with the GS cash to buy a two tone Rootbeer on the bracelet!

Keep: Pepsi. It’s a legend and likely be worth at least what you paid when you sell, assuming MSRP.

Sell: GS. Pains me to say that, I love it, but that is not the GS GMT I would pick.

Trade: Longines for a Monta Skyquest.

Monta nice choice 👍🏼

I'll keep the GS because it's beautiful.

Sell the Rolex because... you now why.

Trade the Longines because I'm personally not a fan of dial.

Keep GS, Sell Rolex and trade the zulu time.
