Yes, warranty follows the watch.

You have a Sea Dweller get the BLNR. One diver one GMT.

denvercenturion · 13 October 2015, 08:58 AM

I think you should get the Hulk first... those prices are pretty stable now while the BLNR prices are still hyped up. I do like the earlier suggestion about an older pepsi or coke, save some money and get a classic piece.

J_H · 13 October 2015, 09:02 AM

I say go Batman first, then Hulk! But, let me add to the confusion:

CRM114 · 13 October 2015, 10:33 AM

BLNR.

Rolex got it just right with that one. Splash of color keeping the GMT line fresh w/o looking garish. Not a fan of an all green watch or the massive lugs on newer Submariners. The long clasp on the glidelock seems like fussy overkill compared to easy-link extension. The PCLs are a non-issue to me, they add some flash not unlike the traditional jubilee option for the GMT always did and mine still look great after 18 months in regular rotation not babying it. Seems like it's blown out of proportion since nobody moans about PCLs on SS Daytonas or WG BLRO for that matter.

BLNR for sure

The BLNR wins!

evlkoala · 13 October 2015, 11:29 AM

I was gonna say Hulk but you already have a 116600. Go with BLNR!!

elcompa · 13 October 2015, 11:42 AM

Trick question. BLNR!

chickennho · 13 October 2015, 11:49 AM

Hulk !!!!

mjrchabot · 13 October 2015, 11:49 AM

BLNR here too.
I love the green on the Hulk but I fear it's just a bit too much and would fall out of love after a while. I think the 50th Anniversary Sub is a gem though - black dial and green bezel is a killer combo.

brmeyers · 13 October 2015, 11:52 AM

I think the BLNR is more versatile as others have said. I am considering this myself for my next watch because I love it and I am lacking a GMT. That is, unless go for a gold GMT first which is tempting...

Joemck · 13 October 2015, 01:12 PM

If you intend to get both, start with the cheaper piece. It does work quite well with suits btw. When prices drop on blnr, you can pick it up then. Also could occasionally switch out bracelet, eliminate pcl and have a better clasp.
Great pieces! Have the hulk. Thinking about the blnr.

murph145 · 13 October 2015, 01:23 PM

GB-man · 13 October 2015, 01:28 PM

Having owned both, I still miss the hulk.

Ruud Van Driver · 13 October 2015, 01:28 PM

You'll get both anyway, so grab the cheapest one now and then save for the other. Good luck

Mr. K · 13 October 2015, 01:34 PM

Great photo of the side-by-side BLNR and LVc. But, the magnification / cyclops of the LVc seems a tad small.

J_H · 13 October 2015, 10:49 PM

@IT Nerd- Thanks man, they're easy to photo! :O

Thanks man, and yes, it is very small! I'm going to see if I can have it fixed when I send it in for its first service!

Hulk. 3 reasons: the dial, the dial, the dial.
