Have both. Love watches equally. If one doesn't sing to you more the brushed bracelet and glidelock on LVc would sway me that way first. Especially if planning as a daily wear.

BLNR for me. But you can’t go wrong with any of them. They are both fantastic watches

I have both and thoroughly enjoy wearing them for different reasons. Go with the one that suits your lifestyle best. No wrong answer here.

Your choice is the most important one. I chose the BLNR as I found it to be more comfortable and the blue suited me better. Good luck with your decision.

Yeh I think I am going to get the blnr first. In the last 2weeks I bought my 2 tone skydweller , 2 tone yachtmaster and my iced out datejust 2. I’ve been on a watch tear lately. I’m almost tempted to go for the Pepsi but I would kick myself in the head if I bought now at double retail and the watch became cjeaper next year. I can handle paying some over retail for bulk or Batman but double for Pepsi that is hard pill to

Pics of all your current watches please and I would go for the hulk. I think it will have a shorter run since it’s been out much longer. And if they discontinue it then it will only go up in value. I would wait for the blnr to see if they update the movement in this years basel world. Let’s be honest your getting both. If it was a one and only I’d get the blnr in a heartbeat. But in your specific case I’d go hulk first. Best of luck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I have both. BLNR is WAY more versatile. If you love Subs and don't like GMT, then you'll be more happy with the LVc. Brushed band on the Sub will hide scratches ore than PCL on BLNR. Both are amazing watches.

They are both great, you have to decide which one means the most to you. Happy hunting.

I have owned 4 subs in past. I have never owned a gmt so I thought the batman would be a good piece to add

I own both. And they’re both great. If I had to pick one though... go Hulk!

If your planning for the Pepsi gmt, I’d get the LV first.

Based on this photo alone - there isn't enough about the BLNR to make it special enough to justify the price for me. |

BLNR. If it's your main watch it is more versatile. If you have a good sized collection then it's whatever you like better.

I’m lucky enough to have both. BLNR is more timeless IMO. If it were me and I had owned 4 subs, as you mentioned, I’d go BLNR. If I planned on picking up a BLRO, as another member asked, I’d go LVc.
