Would you trade a GMT LN for a BLNR?
I've been deliberating this for a while. Do share your thoughts and why you'd choose one over the other.
Many thanks!! |

Yes. I have a Blnr and love the blue on the bezel and 24 hr hand.
Both great though..only cosmetic differences. You'll probably have to pay more for Blnr. |

i prefer the LN because i am not a huge fan of blue
if i did buy a BLNR it would be because of the popularity among other people aka resale value

Yes ... the BLNR is more beautiful than the LN.

I did. Then flipped the BLNR towards the BLRO.

Life can be too black and white already. I like to add a little color.

I go back and forth on this. I lean towards LN, however if it is going to be part of a larger collection, I would say BLNR.

I have a BLNR and biased towards it. So I would trade LN for a BLNR.
I find blue on the bezel charming. If you like blue go for it. |

I would keep the LN as my only watch.
If its part of a collection, I would go for the BLNR. |

I wouldn't. The LN is a classic watch. If you want more color i guess you could do it. How much do you need to add. That would also be a major deciding factor.

Depends on how much you have to put up for trade. BLNR is much nicer than LN in my opinion but essentially they are same watch.

If I was presented with this offer, I would trade in a heartbeat.

I have both, which doesn't make sense to a lot of people, but I'm happy with both for the time being.

There is absolutely no difference between the two, it's strictly aesthetics. Get the one you like more, the hell with us.

Used LN for used BLNR by paying less than $1000. Absolutely.
For brand new, from a trusted seller the difference was $1300 and I happily got mine today. It is up to you, how much do you want to pay for 1/2 blue bezel and a blue hand. Price difference between D-blue and black was around $2.5K. I opted for black.

Depends on the cash needed. BLNR is a totally different watch aesthetically.

Not more beautiful!!! In the first place one must like Blue !!! If you don't like blue then the LN is for you .., I have a BLNR and absolutely enjoy it ... the LN for me would be boring after a week or month max ... The Blue/Black bezel is by far the best representation between night and day on the GMT !!! Edit: I think the BLNR for a female would be fantastic! Still very versatile just as the LN plus some color to coordinate with accessories or outfits... |
