Both pretty versatile, but I’d have to give the nod to the BLNR on oyster.

Black and blue is going to be more versatile than Red and Blue.

I own these two and they are equally versatile.

Own both.
Different.
BLRO on jubilee much more comfortable.
BLNR on oyster, just wow!
Will never, ever, get rid of either.

I'd give the edge to the BLNR with the more muted tones, mine looks black most of the time other than in direct light

Own both and in my opinion, the BLNR is more versatile but the Pepsi is a beautiful watch and eye catching.

It all depends on how u carry the watch... you would wear the steadiest watch with sweats and a tank top... depends on the wearer

black is more neutral than red, but any difference in versatility here is going to be really overstated

Bracelet doesn’t matter, BLNR is the most versatile watch ever IMO.

I would wear either watch with anything I own any day of the week with no hesitation.

Interestingly that's where I find the jubilee to work best. Sometimes when I actually dress up I go Explorer II over Pepsi (on jubilee). I think they all work with any outfit.

BLNR on oyster 100%. Id still rock a Pepsi as a daily without thinking twice. But dark bezel, oyster bracelet is much more subtle than brighter color jubilee. Not even sure if it is subjective.

BLRO because it has more power reserve. In terms of what outfit they will complement better, I think there is a very marginal if any difference.

What colors do you typically wear? That would determine how versatile a watch is to you.

If you really want flexibility, get a 116710 LN
