The multi-position quick adjutment wins over the single 5mm adjustment in the GMT (forget what that is called.)

Evidently Rolex intends the Glidelock to be the equivalent of the wetsuit extension, since only the Sub and the DSSD have it (albeit in two distinct variations). All of the non-dive watches featuring a new Oyster bracelet - GMT-IIc, Explorer, DJII, etc. - just have the Easylink. All other things being equal, I'd prefer the Glidelock, since it would provide the ultimate in adjustability. Having said that, I think the Easylink would suit me under most foreseeable circumstances, assuming the bracelet is properly sized to begin with.


I wish the GMTc had the Glidelock. My bracelet is extended all the way with the Easylink, and just fits.. :shock: That's my curse of having tree stump wrists. I like the brushed look of the Sub c as well. But I WILL NOT brush my GMT just to have that look. :roll: The DSSD looks good, but too thick for me. If I want that much steel I'll wear my SA........for less than half the $$. :?

Congrats, I recently picked up a GMT IIC and simply love it!
Just a few aesthetics I liked better than the Sub but these are classic watches and arguably one of the best all around pieces!

Just checked how well it's keeping time.

After 12 days, it is (dramatic pause)... -8 seconds. Total, not per day. :D

That's an average of -2/3 of a second a day. Outstanding.
