BLNR has more utility as a day-to-day, all around piece, so no.

If I owned the Pepsi GMT on the jubilee as pictured I think it would be something that I would probably wear infrequently. Would not prevent a purchase if I liked it in person, but that fact would probably give me some pause in doing so.

Definitely keeping my LN. Black on Black rocks.

I don`t really like the jubilee bracelet on this watch. Having said that, once I do put it on my wrist, if I evert get the chance, I may change my mind.

However, I do love the new TT Rose gold GMT. So it might consider it in the longer run against a TT Daytona or similar.

I agree on the LN. I love mine especially with the green date wheel. Now if i could put a jubilee on it i might. It is doable, but i like the oyster with the PCLs.

Will not flip my BLNR.

I'd like to think I'll add the SS BLRO some day but there are other watches I would like to add first.

No way selling my BLNR. New BRLO is nice but echo psv in that the Jubilee is not great. Why can't they put on a brushed submariner bracelet...

No deal, BLNR is a keeper! Let’s see if the new BLRO will grow on me, but there are other watches I had in mind first before it.

Originally, the BLNR seemed expendible with thoughts of moving to the WG BLRO. Now, I feel the 2 should coexist, should I be fortunate enough to get my hands on the SS Pepsi. So, BLNR stays and SS Pepsi gets added... whenever my number gets called
