The Bold and The Rebel

A month ago i was exercising judgement between the Dj ii black with fluted bezel, Gmtc BLNR and the Gmtc LN. The Theme was Versatility and Function. So after a week i eliminate the Djii. So it's between the Blnr and the Ln, one thing I noticed that the Blnr has more buzz and hype compare to the LN because it's newer and people were more excited in which it might affect my decision because of the bandwagon effect ( i love the Blnr don't get me wrong). Since Versatility was the Theme, my Heart said to me couple of times to get the LN and now there she is with the Hulk.

I think you made the perfect choice. It would have taken me three seconds to narrow it down to the LN, it might be the most versatile Rolex.

Congrats!

Perfect pair - one is all green and the other, for when you need to tone it down a bit, has just a hint of green as a 'nod' to it's brother.

Now if were just to put it on a super jubilee......
