I'm aware of the different functions of each watch but my questions is what made you guys choose the GMT over the Sub or vice versa?
Submariner for me.

-Submariner is the rolex
-the polished links of the GMT is more blingy and requires more maintenance from fine scratches
-Submariner is rated at 300m vs GMT's 100m (i know i know, you're never going to go past 2m deep)
- The GMT has lost its identity when Rolex couldn't figure out how to create ceramic pepsi/coke bezels
-James bond wore a submariner
-In my opinion, the GMT is too thin compared to the Sub, i like my watches to have some heft

they're both great watches, but if i had to choose one, it would be a Submariner, especially if its a daily
