Not the full gold, but got the TT Blue and as far as I understand it is the same dial on both.
Can definately recommend the Sunburst Blue - it looks stunning in the sunshine. Tbh, if I had the funds the full YG Blue would be on my wrist right now Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk

I own neither. But if I were to choose, I'd go with blue. I think the blue/gold combo works well. (I prefer black with stainless.) Plus, that sunburst blue dial is beautiful.

Another vote for the Blue. The YG and blue are made for each other IMHO

Both are beautiful, I’m just curious if anyone decided to add BOTH.

I’ve had both in the past and enjoyed each differently in their own respect. I did find that the Black and YG went better for most occasion but my personal favorite if I had to pick between the two was the sunburst blue and YG.

I own the blue. Love it. The burst dial has the edge over the black, IMO

I already had a 116718LN so decided on the 116618LB for variety. I would have still picked it even without the GMT.

I guess it would be redundant to have them both in the same collection. Lol. I’m not sure about that.

Get the LB, skip the LN. It is quite redundant. A 116610LN or 114460 or 11460M would be pretty cool with it, though! Good luck! |

I have a 116613LB TT Bluesy and had
a 16803LN at the same time. The 16803LN is the same as a 16613LN , only difference is 16803 was its predecessor... Now that that is clarified, the Bluesy LB stayed the Blackie LN went bye bye... Why you might ask ? I found the black dial TT Sub to be boring after a short while ... In conclusion, save yourself some $$$ and get the Bluesy Sub YG LB !!! There really is no substitute... it’s my grail and one day I will have one on my wrist!!! |

Blue. IMHO, The sun burst dial is definitely look better than the black dial as the color keeps changing in different lighting conditions.

I have owned several of the LB's and one LN. Great watches and a lot of fun to wear. I will probably buy the LB again at some point in the future.

When I bought my 116618LN, I chose black because I also had a TT Smurf. My YG Sub LN is one of my favorites. I no longer have the TT Sub and I find myself wanting a YG LB but not enough to replace my LN. IMP, it’s a coin toss between the LN & LB, both are great pieces. To answer the exact question, I do not have both, but I would and probably will eventually.
