Had an amazing day on Friday and joined the BLNR crew. Between this and my Pelagos I honestly don't know that I'll ever want another watch. Putting it on the first time was so exciting, and the watch is better than I could have ever imagined. Absolutely thrilled. With my Fiancee's family in a different timezone, the GMT Master was absolutely a grail for me, and I'm really pleased to get it in time to wear to my wedding in August.

Question

Can my GMT LN and the new Submariner 41mm coexist? I’m thinking the no date version.

They didn't for me. The GMT was a sub with PCLs so I always reached for the brushed one.

I would say yes, but it depends on how you see your collection and also if you differentiate your pieces by colour - some do, some don't I think.

To me they wear different, the 41mm Sub (not the Sub Date) wears a little larger and the dial and bezel are both less busy than the GMT versions.

The bracelet is also wider on the 41mm Sub, combined with the slimmer lugs this also makes it wear quite different on my wrist. The Sub has more of a wrap around feel, I don't know a better way to put this in English sorry.

Obviously the functionality gives another three clear points of difference:

- the GMT hand

- the bezel bi-directional vs uni

- the date complication

Hope this helps a little while you make your decision...

Ciao

Marco

Beautiful combo! I am totally jelly that you can switch bracelets. I tried to do that with mine but, unfortunately, it doesn’t work.
