First off, this is not a for sale ad. DONT PM me with offers. This is purely to get the opinions of members.

Gonna sell one of these two. Wifey and I want to do some kitchen stuff. Having a hard time deciding. Having both is awesome but rather have $$ in the bank to do stuff with although we don’t need a kitchen remodel either lol.

I can’t figure out which to let go. The LN was my first and gateway into Rolex. It’s very versatile and timeless.

The blnr is just cool, will be harder to replace, but arguably not as versatile.

I have been selling off my collection cause at the end of the day I only have one wrist, and at work I primarily wear my Seiko’s as wearing a Rolex is a bit much for many of reasons.

I am keeping bluesy and my Dssd-blue.

I value the forums thoughts. Again do not PM me for offers. I will ignore u I don’t care how ridiculous they are.

I would keep the black one, as the one most true to the original Rolex idea. Purposeful, business-like, a REAL tool watch.

All those colors... I just don't like them.

BrazenC5 · 24 March 2019, 04:52 AM

You have 2 other Rolexes with blue, keep the LN.

Keep the LN. It was your first, it's discontinued, and it is a great complement to your other watches.

Abdullah71601 · 24 March 2019, 05:04 AM

They discontinued to LN, it will be harder to get back. Resale on the BLNR will probably be better as well.

bdex75 · 24 March 2019, 05:08 AM

I would move the BLNR. Never liked the watch and the LN is a classic.

You could just get rid of the wife and you wouldn't be having these dilemmas.

Just thinking outside the box here.

AzPaul · 24 March 2019, 05:24 AM

Keep the LN

avega357 · 24 March 2019, 05:26 AM

Keep the LN it’s never coming back

You can purchase the BLNR back on jubilee if you want

Keep the LN.

BTW, IBTL!

MinMay · 24 March 2019, 05:44 AM

Why need to ask strangers? LOL.... It's very common sense....do whatever YOU feel happy....

swils8610 · 24 March 2019, 08:07 AM

Man that’s a tough one! BLNR will give you more cash now. I sold my first Rolex and regret it. Cut the BLNR loose.

Right. Not gonna pull money on the house when I can sell a watch though. I could dip into reserves, but I’d rather not. It’s time to let one go.

Whichever one makes you smile less than the other.

mbalmz · 24 March 2019, 08:35 AM

I'd personally keep the BLNR, but it sounds like deep down the LN is the one you want. I'd go with the gut.

Danny83 · 24 March 2019, 08:47 AM

I sold my LN like 2 weeks before Basel ...LOL honestly I say sell the BLNR

Gharddog03 · 24 March 2019, 09:40 AM

LN stays

Tulsa_WIS_88 · 24 March 2019, 09:42 AM

Keeping the LN feels right...

DJ TT 2002 · 24 March 2019, 10:37 AM

I’m still missing my first Rolex, a 16233!!!
I’ve come so close to replacing it numerous times over the last 5 years.

Don’t be me.

Keep the LN
Flip the BLNR.
Cook in a beautiful new kitchen

Al1969 · 24 March 2019, 11:08 AM

Another “vote” for keeping the LN.

Slippy Chips · 24 March 2019, 11:19 AM

Sounds like you have more of a connection with the black and both your other keepers have blue. So I vote for the LN but I’m also biased because that’s what’s on my wrost

rolexgiants · 24 March 2019, 11:33 AM

I’m completely lost, a completely remodeled kitchen is over 100k. Lol. How will this transaction help?

FTX I · 24 March 2019, 12:28 PM

I prefer the LN so I'd sell the BLNR

Damn. What kind of kitchen are you remodeling??

Although you do have a good point. Even a “modest” remodel can push 25-30 without too much effort.

OP, dump the Blnr for sure.

SkyJuice · 24 March 2019, 02:29 PM

Keep what you like. I prefer LN though because it suits my office wear more.

Albe100 · 24 March 2019, 06:41 PM

If someone offered you 20k and said give me one of the two for it. Which would you release? No thinking just answer!

If you have a gut feeling, then follow it and let that one go. You bought the watches because you liked them, so sell the one that you can live without, not the one you can get extra $$. You’ll regret it if you move one solely based on that decision.

Good luck, these dilemmas are brutal.
