I have the old dateless sub and ceramic gmt
Side by side. LOL
I'd like to see the differences really.
ChainBreaker-
I might have time for that. When you're wearing them though the bezel of the ally sub and the markers etc. all have a subtle eye catching shimmer. The maxi ceramic has a bolder look but I don't think it works as well on the wrist. Bracelet on the maxi case is lovely, much nicer than the old one.
I got to choose between old and new gmt because they were both available new when I bought it, the ceramic GMT won me over but it's not a choice you can make without regrets. The fact that it's suddenly desirable now it's been discontinued is a big surprise.

I have the old dateless sub and ceramic gmt and I think the ceramics just have that slightly wrong vibe. The ceramics with maxi case are amazing watches and lovely to wear but the older version has subtle qualities that you come to rate after you notice them.
I've had them nearly 15 years now so I feel qualified to give an opinion!
The SD is my least favourite Rolex sports model anyway.
