Which one of these would you pair with a BLNR?
BLNR Oyster is getting the lion's share of wrist time these days. I'm thinking of one of these three (and only these 3) to pair with it, which would be best?

114060 without a doubt
You have a GMT so the Exp II is duplicate to some extent The OP is just enh kinda boring. <edited>

Pair?!? It's not a steak and a wine, it's a watch. Buy whatever you want.

Explorer II. Some overlap in functionality, but it’s visually distinct.

If only going to have two I’d personally pick something with a different color either on the dial or the bezel, but of the options you’ve thrown out I’d go with the sub because it’s iconic. I will say if you’re getting a second watch on oyster maybe add a jubilee for your GMT to change it up a bit? Just to give you some variety.

Although these have both been moved on I thought they made a decent pair.

If you need to ask, you don't want any of them. Buy what you like, not what I like.

Another vote for the Sub. I think it is a good pairing, but I find it strange when people ask TRF members to help make their decision.

I think the buy whatever you like\want theory applies to steak and wine also.

It depends on your preference, go with the one you love the most, no wrong choice.
