Ok I need a push I’m about to purchase one of these models...and I need pics-please-to convince me which model! Thank you guys in advance! 😜

I just took of my BLNR, so I don’t have a picture. I debated between the BLNR and LN, and my AD told me I would not regret the BLNR, and I am glad I listened. Had it for three years now and I still love it.

This was before the hype and you could easily get both.

I added the Rubber B to highlight the Green marker. If I could obtain the BLNR I would jump on it but keep the Black Bezel as well.

Jack T · 30 June 2020, 10:58 AM

As much as I like the BLNR, have to vote for the Black, as I just picked up a brand new, old stock 116710 LN

Greglaw · 30 June 2020, 11:00 AM

It certainly is a tough call!

synrrgy · 30 June 2020, 11:27 AM

Can’t go wrong with either... but I have the LN.

Turtleneck · 30 June 2020, 11:34 AM

LN for me.

denmanproject · 30 June 2020, 12:00 PM

watchmework · 30 June 2020, 12:32 PM

I like a splash of color with my GMTs so I’d pick the BLNR.

jimcarver · 30 June 2020, 12:43 PM

If they were the same price, I'd still go LN (and I did)

I could be slightly swayed by the Jubilee on the newer model.

However, the reason I say this is because I don't like the blue and black combo at all, I'm assuming you do. In which case maybe go BLNR.

brandrea · 30 June 2020, 12:49 PM

I’ve owned both and if I could turn back the clock on one of them, it would definitely be the LN

TellingTime · 30 June 2020, 01:12 PM

LN is sophisticated, looks classy and rich, without screaming - look at me.

Greglaw · 30 June 2020, 01:18 PM

I very much appreciate the input and pictures!

Johnpierpontmorgan · 30 June 2020, 02:09 PM

Instagram has many pictures

teabags001 · 30 June 2020, 03:53 PM

BLNR. I think the gmt looks at home with a 2 tone bezel. It matches the PCLs. Save the all black bezel for the future submariner or SD43. Cheers!

For the complete GMT experience, you have go with the bicolor bezel. And the all Black looks too much like a Sub.

imsayingthough · 1 July 2020, 12:00 AM

BLNR and its not even close.

DoctorA · 1 July 2020, 12:12 AM

Depends on what you have in your collection and what you want.
The black is a timeless piece that is subtle and very versatile but if you want to add some “zing” to the collection then go with the BLNR

the good news is that you can’t go wrong with either!

PS: you can always get a BNIB BLNR, well for a few years at least. But the LN are no longer being made so they might start showing in a good condition less and less over the years!

1William · 1 July 2020, 02:26 AM

I prefer the Batman.

DESH · 1 July 2020, 02:34 AM

APPRF · 1 July 2020, 02:35 AM

Discontinued Batman.

BLNR, especially if you own or will at some point own a Sub or one of the divers.

Calatrava r · 1 July 2020, 02:44 AM

The black for me. Very elegant and classic. I am not a fan of colorful watches.

Torontonian · 1 July 2020, 03:14 AM

I am biased as a 126710 BLNR owner :D

1665fan · 1 July 2020, 03:31 AM

I don’t own either but blnr by a mile...

Here's the right answer!

But if just 1 then the LN.

C0d · 1 July 2020, 03:51 AM

BLNR for me also. Black is nice but it competes with the sub, which IMHO is nicer with its cleaner dial.
Besides Two-tone bezel screams GMT, you are one upping (:
