I agree Chris.

I owned the LN for several years and flipped it for one of my grails. So far I don't miss it. If I were to reaquire it would be the blnr

I've had both and either works. I sold the LN and kept the BLNR. Both are great watches, but I feel the BLNR is just a little extra special.

CANCROWN · 25 February 2015, 06:01 PM

LN is more iconic. BLNR is more young, trendy, splash of style and more fun. Cant go wrong with either.

Rogdogg · 25 February 2015, 06:12 PM

Both amazing watches and love them both but I voted BLNR because I have one.
I wear it a lot and could easily have it as a one and only watch and wear it with everything.

regnant · 25 February 2015, 08:54 PM

BLNR, being two tone bezel you can wear this with jeans 👖 and this would be a perfect match

kaiserphoenix · 25 February 2015, 09:19 PM

I had both. I definately prefer the BLNR even though I sold it. The Blue Black is really cool and under some lighting almost looks all black even. Definately just as versatile. Get the BLNR!!

X2.....Could't agree more.

Blro

Psmith · 25 February 2015, 10:07 PM

Either would be a great choice, but if pushed I would pick the BLNR.

bardm · 26 February 2015, 12:51 AM

If you only will have one Rolex I would choose LN over BNLR

Investr · 26 February 2015, 03:09 AM

This is what we call a WIN-WIN!! My fav feature of the GMT is the PCLs. I own the BLNR and it truly my favorite watch AND my daily wearer. I love the touch of blue that the bezel has. I would not stress too much, there is not a bad decision between the two. If you love BLUE, its really easy.......

jseng27 · 26 February 2015, 03:17 AM

I'm having a similar problem.. Looking for my first serious watch. I'm torn between the BLNR and the Sub. Personally leaning towards the BLNR but the wife has pointed out that the subs a classic. The current hype on the BLNR might not last as long as the sub's appeal.

time · 26 February 2015, 08:19 AM

BLNR.

For me, GMT is bi-colour. Sub is black.

BLNR is more special and unique than LN. However, GMT II LN is a bargin and good choice.

Spartacus · 26 February 2015, 08:22 AM

I have a BLNR, and I would go LN. All black works better for me. BLNR is my fun watch.

I don't think it's hype, blue is a popular colour and the bezel colours make perfect sense, more so than the coke or pepsi, so I suspect they will be popular for quite some time yet so don't let that put you off if you prefer it to the sub.

mschafer · 26 February 2015, 10:20 AM

Huge GMTc fan, wears incredible and kinda goes away while maintaining integrity and Rolex presence if someone is looking for/at it. As for the color, i'd go with LN, classic, versatile, slightly less bling and blends with all outfits, plus is a classic color thats been an option for a very long time. BTW: the PCL are somewhat the icing on the cake, adds to any casual outfit even outdoorsy/Polartec and look at ease with more upscale/suite wearing options...

fishingbear · 26 February 2015, 01:06 PM

I voted BLNR based on looks. But if you're to only have one watch the LN may be the best "all-a-rounder" for you. Get what appeals to YOU most.
