The never ending debate continues :)
Which would you choose for your everyday watch?

Cc1966 · 22 August 2013, 01:11 AM

Tough one, but I would go with the YM. Good luck...

Miamipawnsab · 22 August 2013, 01:23 AM

Ym

Nycturbovr6 · 22 August 2013, 01:27 AM

I Would say blnr for an everyday watch. I love the regular platty yachtmaster more than I do the blue.
And the blnr is slightly less expensive so you could put the extra bucks towards your next purchase..

ford_kuga · 22 August 2013, 01:28 AM

BLNR all the way !

kilyung · 22 August 2013, 01:32 AM

BLNR for everyday. YM for a special piece.

Ken B · 22 August 2013, 01:35 AM

I love the Yachtmaster blue face so I would choose it. :)

Survivor · 22 August 2013, 01:44 AM

YM for sure.............if it was between the YM blue dial and the regular black GMT-IIC, that would be a toss up. The blue on the BLNR just doesn't work. On the other hand, the blue dial on the YM is stunning!!!!!

Good luck!!!!!!

Degas · 22 August 2013, 02:04 AM

BLNR in a heartbeat !

SixPak · 22 August 2013, 02:34 AM

Can't beat BLNR for daily wear. Second time zone is a big bonus for traveling.

beshannon · 22 August 2013, 02:35 AM

GMT for everyday. More functionality.

nickng · 22 August 2013, 02:37 AM

Both are very beautiful. But I will pick the BLNR as my daily driver.

luvsub · 22 August 2013, 02:38 AM

gmt.

nycpassat · 22 August 2013, 02:39 AM

I think both watches can be an everyday wearer. Try them on and choose what sings to you the best.

KBM · 22 August 2013, 02:57 AM

I have read that the Pt. Bezel scratches easily, so the gmt would make for a better daily wearer... oh, and I think it is a nicer watch too! ;.)

mjclark32 · 22 August 2013, 03:37 AM

I'd go gmt

Trouble15 · 22 August 2013, 03:39 AM

That's a tough one. I think I'd go with the GMT.

yld2rob · 22 August 2013, 04:16 AM

BLNR

Piloto · 22 August 2013, 04:26 AM

BOTH!

JK... Well... somewhat.

As a BLNR owner, I'd say it depends. If you travel frequently and would use the time zone feature as more than just a novelty, then the GMT is a no brainer. If you don't travel much, I'd go with the YM. Just my opinion though.

As has been said though, you cant go wrong with either choice.

Racerdj · 22 August 2013, 08:23 AM

BLNR is my choice!

sugiharto · 22 August 2013, 09:55 AM

Blnr

dalip · 22 August 2013, 10:47 AM

BLNR - no question

HL65 · 22 August 2013, 10:50 AM

Get whichever one sings to you most. Personally I prefer the BLNR but what matters is one you prefer! Good luck and either way you end up with a great watch!

underdog33 · 22 August 2013, 11:26 AM

Gmt blnr

slim4511 · 22 August 2013, 12:10 PM

Blnr

Chainring · 22 August 2013, 12:32 PM

I'd go with the BLNR first over the YM but I do like that blue dial.
