I would drop the SD from the mix and concentrate on BLNR vs LVC. Very tough call.

I have an LVC and love it but I also have a GMT LN. Sometimes I wish I had the BLNR instead of LN but other times I prefer LN.

Of the two, either way you win but if forced to choose one or the other I’d say LVC!

For a one and only I would do the BLNR - works great in every situation. Now I'm going to assume in this scenario I can collect bracelets as I'm not a fan of PCLs but would love it on a jubilee and also get a easylock with BCLs for weekends.

Of the choices, I voted BLNR.
But SD43 should be in the mix, even if a little pricier.
And I would have voted for the SD43 as the "one and only".

Given that I don't have a use for a diver, do use the GMT complication all the time, and don't care for the monochromatic aesthetic in any context, I'd go with the BLNR. It gets you the GMT hand and at least a half-bezel of contrast.

BLNR (with a brushed bracelet) would be my choice.

I had BLNR and Sea Dweller 116600. Between these two I would keep BLNR

For a single watch the hulk must be discarded for its green color, I can not imagine it with a todexo, just like the blnr is a little colorful. There would be only the Seadweller that is black but its height takes away elegance for some occasions. Have you considered the 116610LN or 114060? For a single watch I would see it more versatile.

I like the sd4k for looks, the BLNR for comfort, and the sub in green bringing up the rear

I currently own the SD4K and Hulk and did own a black ceramic bezel GMT. I bought the SD4K on impulse but it has really grown on me. If it could be ONLY one of that threesome, then it’s the SD4K with the Hulk as an extremely close second.

LV if only one of them. BLNR comes close in the second place.

All depends on whats in your collection but i'm partial to the BLNR out of the 3 options posted. I think I would go with SS Daytona or black Submariner if i had to only own 1 Rolex though.

The Hulk might be the most "collectible", but the green has never done anything for me.

For me it would be a choice between the BLNR and SD. I voted for the SD, since I think it's a more classic design and the limited nature is really appealing to me. I like the BLNR and think the GMT is a very useful complication, but I always just feel like it's not as classic as the Pepsi bezel.
