you mean the 116710blnr vs the 126710blnr?
new movement, bracelet, not sure about lug width, ill have to look into that There was talk when the ss blro gmt first came out that the holes in the lugs were positioned differently and that the bracelets weren’t interchangeable but I recall that was proven wrong when someone fitted an oyster to the new ☝️ The same should apply for the blnr |

Great photo! nice to see photos of the bezel in daylight, it doesn't look as saturated as some of the other photos i've seen of this model.

There’s your answer.
Maybe close this now before someone gets angry and starts posting unsavoury pictures? |

Isn't there a slight difference in the case at the lug ends?

Yes, due to someone who signed up for an account just to make this post when they could have more easily put their attention-grabbing title and one-line question into Google and got an answer.
But perhaps they didn’t want an answer, maybe they wanted a show? The question’s been answered. |

I owned the 116710 blnr but looked too much like my sub so I traded my 116710 for the 126710 blnr due to the jubilee and haven't looked back. It is unique to have a jubilee on sports watch and has I have a lot of Rolex sports watches with oyster bracelets, I welcomed the change.

I believe Batman can defeat Batgirl. He has had more training, has demonstrably beaten stronger foes (including foes he should NOT be able to defeat), and definitely is stronger. He also has a far sharper mind based on the canon of DC comics, being considered one of the smartest people in their continuity. Finally, he’s a billionaire and thus has the resources and gadgets edge.
I hope that helps. In terms of watches, the 116710BLNR has an Oyster bracelet while the 126710BLNR has a Jubilee bracelet. Additionally, the 126710BLNR has a newer movement and a small coronet between ‘Swiss’ and ‘made.’ |

The difference?
The difference is that the Batman is better and the original |

oyster vs jubilee bracelet and movement of a 48 hour power reserve vs 72 hours
Imo the jubilee bracelet is quintessential Rolex and a real stunner in person! |

So many Rolex experts on this forum... but people always forget to mention the case/lugs were refined in 2018 to look less "supercase-ish."
From Rolex: The lugs and sides of its Oyster case have been redesigned, and the watch is fitted on a five-link Jubilee bracelet. |

Batman discontinued, and Batgirl will be in production for no less than 8 years. Differences are in bracelet, case, lugs, added crown, movement, and hands.

I’ve owned both and prefer the Batman on jubilee all day, one of my favorite watches.

You may upset some Batgirl owners by calling their watch a Batgirl (even though that's what it is called)

Batman vs Batgirl
I also owned both BLNRs. Hate that batgirl nickname nearly as much as the jubilee bracelet. Although, the jubilee is much comfortable than the Oyster but find the modern version too bling bling.
Note: I do adore my 5 digit GMTs on the jubilee. Hmmm. |

I like the Batman minus the polished centre links but I wouldn’t wear the Batgirl if you paid me. I really dislike the jubilee bracelet. I’d much rather see it on a brushed oyster.
