No hesitation, the SD50th is the one for those fortunate enough to be able to get one.

Absolutely buy it now while it’s available and do what makes sense afterwards!

Congrats, they make a wonderful pair, individually they're great, but as a pair they're just that much more useful

Adding is smart. I would not sell or trade a BLNR at this point. Wear the new watch in good health.

I like both but if I had to choose between the two it would definitely be the SD.

Not a chance, keep your BLNR. I think you will regret it one day if you do!

Heck no, I'm sure you'll get a lot of yes answers from non BLNR owners though;)

Congrats. Now if you could just chisel off that cyclops, you’d have a nearly perfect pair. LOL. I tied on a friend’s SD43 and loved the fit. The cyclops just throws me for a loop on the SD. Not sure if it’d grow on me or not.

I have both. The BLNR suits me better. The SD always makes me feel a little like I'm playing dress up.
The problem is that I just looooove looking at the SD more.

One looks better on me. The other looks better to me.

Not helpful, am I.

I'll try and put it another way.
If I had to be a one-watch guy, the BLNR would be the one I'd keep.
If I had to lose one of the two from the my collection, the BLNR would go.
