I've decided to go with the Colt GMT with the blue dial because I like the polished look of the pro II bracelet over the brushed look of the Steelfish. I called a local AD who matched the price of Little Swiss, but the only downside is that he just sold his last blue dial GMt this past weekend. He said he can order one for me but it may takes weeks or even months, has anyone had to wait like this and if so, how long did you end up waiting?

Very common. I was told I would have to wait up to five months when I called an AD in reguard to my Navi-World.

Congrats! I find the Colt GMT a bit small.. the regular colt is a better size for me... but I really do like the dial on the Colts. They are nice watches!

I went to pick up my Colt GMT this weekend and the dealer thought I wanted a black face instead of the blue one I told him I wanted. Needless to say, he didn't have the one I wanted so I still have to wait. It's not a big deal, it's a graduation gift and I don't graduate until December so if I did get it, I wouldn't have any incentive to go to school for the next 2 months.

Sounds like the AD was pulling the old bait and switch.
