116613lb vs Blue YM vs JLC Reverso Duo

[ansharma]

Hi all

I had a great Friday today trying on these 3 pieces. Photos and brief comments below on each timepiece.

Which one do you think would be a good addition to my current collection and why? (my collection shown in thread below)

116613lb - A very nice watch. The blue is much lighter than I anticipated but to me its better than the flat blue. The blue on the 16613 is still unrivalled but the improvements on the ceramic version far outweigh the dial colour issue - the watch just feels more solid.

YM blue dial - This surprised me - an impressive watch. Less flashy than the two tone sub and again a lovely blue dial (different to the two tone sub).

JLC Reverso Duo - Gold version is shown but I would buy the steel version. A very elegant and useful watch. Two stunning dials, a GMT function and a beautiful double clasp.

For me it's between the 116613lb and JLC in steel with the JLC just edging it due to me already owning 2 Rolexes including a 16610 Sub. It's actually a much tougher choice than I expected, they are just very different watches.

Hope you enjoyed the brief comparison and any comments are appreciated
