I have had to sort out this dilemma. I really tried to come to grips with the color of the Blue and Red. If the colors were closer to the Pepsi soda colors, then the BLRO would be my choice. In the end, I wore the WG Sub and found out how much I really like it. It is a shame to buy a new watch and have it be 6th on your list when new. I really wanted one WG Rolex.

116619 for me.

kilyung · 12 March 2015, 10:45 PM

BLRO as I have the LB. If I didn't it'd be the LB.

HOHO · 12 March 2015, 10:48 PM

LB ... All day long !

nyc2la · 14 March 2015, 12:38 AM

I was at an AD yesterday and had the pleasure of holding both of these in my hand (and on my wrist) --- both are incredible pieces. I voted for the LB, but I really couldn't decide which I prefer. There is no decision to make at this point; I'm just torturing myself by thinking about it, and even more so, by trying them both on.

Haha easy solution.. just get both.

You thinking about selling the Aquanaut since you have the Nautilus? Gold Rolexes are very enticing...

Nycturbovr6 · 14 March 2015, 03:24 AM

I Vote for the lb! One of my favorites

Cru Jones · 14 March 2015, 03:52 AM

BLRO....LB doesn't do enough for me.

Jack Cassidy · 14 March 2015, 04:13 AM

LB. I really like both. I own the LB and think it is more versatile. I use it with both suits and shorts and it is perfect for any occasion. That said, I have been in love with the BLRO since it came and have never seen it IRL.

1William · 14 March 2015, 10:26 PM

Sub.

This. Love the LB

Sub as I use the complication so much more.

sea-dweller · 15 March 2015, 01:07 AM

The LB for me...

time · 15 March 2015, 05:18 AM

The GmtIIc blue red is more unique.

dysondiver · 15 March 2015, 05:44 AM

Ha! I'm still enjoying the Aquanaut so I'm not ready to part ways just yet. But yes, the gold Rolexes are enticing...

Blro 100%

mtrunner · 20 March 2015, 04:28 AM

Very very tough call but I would go with the 116619LB.

But love this one as well.....

Somebody call a doctor..... These pictures are KILLING me!!!

Such a beautiful collection you have, Tom. It must be difficult choosing which one to wear each and every morning. Good problem to have!

kooltzar · 20 March 2015, 04:50 AM

This is a no brainer: The blue sub is extremely ugly and the GMT is spectacular.

FTX I · 20 March 2015, 04:54 AM

In my dreams I'd take the GMT with the Sub clasp.

I agree with you, got both but still can't warm up to the candy like colors of the red&blue (or should I say cranberry&purple). I wear the LB a lot more. The blue on the Sub is to die for and really like the clasp!!
