Hi Guys,
I'm trying to decide between GMT BLNR and the Hulk. I currently have SS Daytona black and TT Sub Bluesy. I love both the BLNR and the hulk. It's such a hard decision. Which one would you guys buy first?

I would get the blnr since you already have a sub.

Cru Jones · 5 July 2016, 09:25 AM

LVc fits your collection better IMHO compared to another black faced sports Rolex with PCLs.

japenney · 5 July 2016, 09:26 AM

I would have to direct you to the search function as this is a very common question. Both the hulk and blnr are top tier SS sports models and it is hard to go wrong. Pick your preference or pick the blnr first as you already have a dive watch. You will probably end up with both.

Good luck,

Josh

Tourpro · 5 July 2016, 09:29 AM

both......just picked up the blnr and love it....In my case it was just my ad happened to have the hulk ready for pick up....

ICEMAN 316 · 5 July 2016, 09:33 AM

Well you don't need to direct me to the search function on this forum. I know how to use it. I also have read a lot of threads on this subject but isn't this one of the reason why we post on this forum? To get some opinions from fellow members? There's only a few Rolex models we can discuss right? I guess you never posted something on this forum that wasn't posted a lot of times before right ? Thanks for your time guys!

Tough choice. I went BLNR first, still want and lust for a LVc. The bluesy could cover your thirst for blue, I don't think you'll go wrong with either. Good luck!

HL65 · 5 July 2016, 09:49 AM

Both great watches but if had to pick one first it would be the ever so versatile BLNR.

TimeRookie · 5 July 2016, 09:56 AM

For me it was the BLNR. Have you thought about the blue Yachtmastermaster? (A little curve ball to confuse you;))

KevNev · 5 July 2016, 09:59 AM

Expand the color palette and go with the LVc.

Runnin' Rebel · 5 July 2016, 10:04 AM

I'd go LVc as Cru said due to your watches you own now. You have to at least try it on and take it outside under the sun then back in under regular office lighting. Your in Southern California. Do some GREEN

Only exception would be if you fly a lot

Roboshap · 5 July 2016, 10:07 AM

I'm a bit biased as I just picked up the BLNR for my first Rolex. Both are great watches, but I do agree with others who have pointed out that the BLNR is a lot more versatile than the green sub. The blue and black colors of the GMT pretty much go with anything. You already have a two-tone sub, so I think the GMT would also compliment your collection better with the added time zone complication.

Gotgolf52 · 5 July 2016, 10:12 AM

Base on your collection I think BLNR fit the bill more than Hulk.

ICEMAN 316 · 5 July 2016, 10:15 AM

I was leaning towards the BLNR because its a little more versatile and because I already had a sub but the hulk just looks awesome in the sun. Such a tough choice.

Yes, I love the Yacht Master too but that one has to wait. I have a few other models I would like to get before that one. 👍

To add the GMT (two/three time zones) function in your collection, buy the all-rounder BLNR first.

do it !! by one off the forum and save a few Dollars too. I have 2 subs, LVc and 116619, 3 GMT and a Black Bay Red. Tough choices every morning

Dusko.Popov · 5 July 2016, 10:46 AM

Both nice but blnr without a doubt.

red1108nyc · 5 July 2016, 11:01 AM

Love the BLNR but I would vote for the glide-lock

Exactly ... Would make a great trio
Just add your Daytina to the mix ....

Steel28 · 5 July 2016, 11:20 AM

The One is BLNR.

I get carried away with work and taking care of our baby girl but whenever I come back I see at least 2-3 top posts about BLNR. It warms my heart lol.

While playing hold em during WSOP, complements were flying left and right but to me it's so exciting to look at my BLNR day after day. I would buy it again any day of the week.

brandrea · 5 July 2016, 11:27 AM

Another vote for the BLNR.

X2! I've had a Hulk and own a BLNR (and love it). I flipped the Hulk bc it got old to me after 6 months

rmlovett1 · 5 July 2016, 12:34 PM

You need some green!!:)

socialpro · 5 July 2016, 12:42 PM

BLNR between those two.

Angrypuppy · 5 July 2016, 12:50 PM

GMT is always the right answer.

daytonaTBR · 5 July 2016, 01:10 PM

blnr
