Given what you have, the Sub is the clear choice.

The BLNR is a very nice looking watch. I never particularly liked it but when I met it I was struck by how nice it looked in person. The colours are subtle and they work. But in my book, the BLRO is miles ahead of it and the one to have.

If it was my collection, a Sub Date would be my next move. I couldn't think of going in any other direction until that requirement was met. But it's your money. Do what suits you.

Go with the unpopular decision. It’s less boring. =P

With your collection, you should get the Sub. I prefer the BLNR over the Sub.

Honestly, if it were me, I would add something different and maybe non Rolex. A PM piece, a dress piece if that suits your style, a lot of nice brands out there

I have a BLNR and I would still recommend you buy the Sub. By only having one Rolex it makes my choice very easy when I want to wear Rolex. :-) Good luck with your hunt.

BLNR is my grail.... my wait should be ending soon.

That being said, if I had a BLRO already, I'd go with the sub.

My curveball suggestion is Explorer II white dial. It's as rugged as a submariner, non ceramic bezel for a different look and a white dial instead of yet another black lacquer dial.

100% Sub to those other two. You’d have a nice well rounded collection at that point vs duplicate GMTs in a 3 watch group

For a complete land, air, sea collection.

I recently picked up the 41 and it has become probably my favorite of my Rolex collection.

Sub 100%. Since you have blro on jubilee you can skip any more GMTs. With a sub, you will have land air sea. And 3 types of bracelets as well. The variety here would be solid.
