Be sure to clue me if you figure out how to avoid it!

Sub C date would be my choice. I own and enjoy it and the POC 9300.

Rashid.bk · 28 July 2014, 05:08 AM

SubC but if you need a second timezone then it's a no brainer. Of course this is all subjective based on individual preferences. I don't care about resale, I care about what brings me happiness on my wrist.

Furbo · 28 July 2014, 06:05 AM

Both are great.

Kyu · 28 July 2014, 06:07 AM

I vote subC
I love the BLNR but for some reason every time I decide "today is the day to buy it!" I go in, try it on and leave buying something else

Check the for sale section. BLNRs are trading not much below retail.

threemonkeys · 28 July 2014, 07:00 AM

I have a GMT and Subc. I would choose the GMT as it wears smaller. But for you, that's probably irrelevant. Take your time and, really, they are both great.

No wrong answer here.

Agree with Furbo! I have the same combo and love them both.

If I had to pick one over the other though......the Sub - Timeless.

However, you will see a lot of Sub's around - not as many BLNR's around at this point. Don't see as many GMT II-Ceramic LN's around either.

The BLNR seems to be more popular at the moment. Can't go wrong with a sub though.

HogwldFLTR · 28 July 2014, 10:09 AM

Sub C would be my choice as a classic elegant go with anything Rolex.

Both are beautiful watches. Buy the one that speaks to you. If you can see and hold both at the same time, one will whisper beautiful things into your ear more than the other. That's your new rolex.

Maxtor · 28 July 2014, 10:34 AM

No wrong answer here. Enjoy your choice.

GradyPhilpott · 28 July 2014, 10:40 AM

The Subs and the GMT are equally good daily wearers.

They aren't perfectly equal, as the Sub doesn't offer th time zone feature and the GMT isn't quite as accurate at measuring elapsed time.

Which ever one you choose to buy, I would suspect that you will eventually buy the other, so flip a coin.

Agreed...though I'm loving my recent addition, I already am thinking about reacquiring the SubC. Like the BLNR, clean, simple and a classic.

slim4511 · 28 July 2014, 01:24 PM

Blnr

jeremyam · 28 July 2014, 03:10 PM

I'd do SubC.

Consider Sub (16610) if you're sensitive to weight.
