I'm a big fan of the sky-dweller ...
and have traveled with it many times. One "issue" is that unlike GMT movement, date doesn't flip backwards when hour hand jumps backwards. This sometimes causes problem when you are traveling west, around midnight.
It is true that reading the numbers off the tiny circle is more difficult compared to the big bezel of the GMT. But, I personally never had much problem, because while traveling I need the local time in most cases and the home time only occasionally.
In the end, I'm considering adding the new ss BLRO, only if I'm sure that jubilee and the controversial color combinations won't bug me that much.
Will keep both ... Love the sky-d for its luxurious feel, mechanical complications implemented in a very innovative and very cool way. Love the GMT too because of its simplicity, which is sometimes difficult to achieve and can be viewed as a "complication" by itself! 
Rolex GMT vs Sky Dweller: Battle of the travellers
So which one, the traditional GMT Master II or the Sky Dweller Two very different interpretations of the travel watch Both quintessentially Rolex in looks Yet very different So GMT or SD? ...
From a purely practical point of view ...
... I would prefer the GMT for one reason: Withour reading glasses, I would be unable to read the second time zone on the Sky Dweller: It consists of a ring of numbers rotating, so I HAVE to recognize the number in order to know which time it is elsewhere...
Horologically speaking, the Skydweller, in terms of charm and wearability, the GMT MASTER.
As I previously wrote, the Skydweller was a big disappointment, I felt it too big for me. And I wanted to love it for what it is, a very special Rolex. Best, Nicolas

The blue dial on the sydweller is just perfect! [nt]
and the jubilee on the GMT has also something going for it
you all know I'm in love with the gmt however....
I think I fear the new pepsi is more "pink and violet" than red and blue, while the new skydweller (this I saw it live) is a wonderful piece in every detail.... so black "ordinary" gmt I'd prefer to the SD, SD vs Pepsi wins the SD... th's just my opinion ...
