Sprite or Bluesy ?
Totally random but what would you choose between the LHD Sprite & the Rolesor Bluesy?
Let’s hear those answers. |

Two tone watches are not my cup of tea so I would go with the sprite, it’s funky and weird which I love.

Neither for me…. I’m not a TT fan and I don’t like the look of the GMT VTNR

I'm not overly a fan of either, but if I had to chose it'd be the TT LB some by margin.
For me, the VTNR has a look that only it's mother could love.

I've owned LHD watches; I don't get the attractiveness. Bluesy, no doubt.

With my own money? Neither.
If given to me free? The LHD GMT. |

Neither appeal to me, but if forced to choose, Bluesy, by far.

It always makes me laugh how opinions change over time. When the VTNR was first announced it was probably liked by no more than 1 in 20 people on here. Fast forward a few months and here it is, winning a poll against a watch that has been a long standing favourite of many Rolex fans for decades in its various versions.
With that in mind I'm pretty convinced that the all hand-wringing about how the 126500 Daytona is allegedly such a backward step compared to the 116500, will all be forgotten in a few months time too.

Lol, totally. As far as the Daytona though, I think it was a very vocal minority that didn’t like the 126 initially. I think it was well received overall. For sure the consensus now is very positive. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I’m not opposed to fun nicknames for watches, but I don’t get Sprite for this watch, I think it doesn’t really make sense, but I’m really not arsed either way, I have both - and both offer so much, the bluesy in summer is a thing of beauty and the VTNR is very special to me due to its craziness ..
If you were to get either you’d be very happy ..
