Would you sell???

Would you sell a 126710BLNR to purchase a black or white dial Sky-Dweller 326934?

Do you have the 126710 BLNR already?

I would not, but why not if that's what you want to do.

I do prefer the Skydweller over the BLNR.

Yes! IMHO, the Skydweller is a superior watch.

It's an interesting first world problem. The skyD takes the whole time complication thing to a new level mechanically and stylistically. (While still not solving the whole international date line thing). I think it's a great looking watch but it is large and thick.

That being said if you can pull it off I think it's the better looking watch.

Absolutely, I've owned both and can say that IMO the Sky-Dweller is the better watch of the two.

I would. I have a Sky-Dweller stainless with black dial and a BLNR. The GMT Master is cool, but I love my Sky-Dweller.

When I bought my Sky-Dweller, I was able to choose between blue and black. The black dial suited me better. The aftermarket price did not concern me. I bought it to wear.

It all depends on what you want sometimes, you would want something different from your collections, if you can only get it by selling the one you have that's if you don't want to save up for it....sell .

No, third time zone feature of the BLNR is more practical for me than the Sky-Dweller. The annual calendar is amazing though. I suppose it depends on what you want in the watch.

With respect, it’s a silly question to ask strangers.

The question and majority of replies are because of this silly hype/demand train.

The question should be, which one do you prefer? If you prefer the Sky dweller go for it. Life’s too short to be collecting hype watches you don’t really want.

Yes. Although it's theoretical for me because I wouldn't own a BLNR to start with.

I wouldn't. I think SkyD is too big, especially in thickness. Otherwise I would say yes. If you feel like it's not too large for you, go for it.

If I wanted a Sky-Dweller it would have to be the blue dial.
