Sorry for asking so many questions guys, but out of the smurf and BLRO which do you prefer and why.

Also, if I got the BLRO, I would buy a date sub in steel (maybe hulk). And if I bought the Smurf, I would buy the BLNR.

Need help deciding!

Thanks.

Oh, it's going along a daytonaC white dial, and reverso if that effects your decision at all

gossbeau · 19 February 2017, 06:06 AM

Can't go wrong either or.
Me personally, I would go with... Either or really LOL!

traf · 19 February 2017, 06:13 AM

Just depends on the colors you prefer... smurf and BLNR is a lot of blue, where Pepsi and hulk are more of a cranberry and blueberry and minty fresh combo

BLRO and Hulk would be my preferred option out of those two. For the record I love all four but I think the BLRO Hulk combo brings more to the table. A bit more variety in colour and individually the Hulk beats BLNR for me.

Both are great choices. I'd pic the BLRO. I prefer the Pepsi bezel and PCL's.

Both are amazing! I vote for BLRO

dmitrii_ · 19 February 2017, 06:26 AM

Smurf is a very special sub imo. My personal fav WG model.

yannis · 19 February 2017, 06:28 AM

I finally got to own BLNR and Hulk. My vote would therefore be BLRO (so beautiful) and Hulk. Killer combo.

natosub · 19 February 2017, 06:34 AM

If you could have both of those with the white DaytonaC, that's the trifecta!

If not, and one has to be steel, I'd probably go Pepsi and Hulk. Pepsi is gorgeous, and the Hulk is somewhat more unique in the Sub space.

Honestly though, you really can't go wrong with any of the watches you're proposing. Get what you like best and post the incoming!

rmlovett1 · 19 February 2017, 06:39 AM

I've owned all three at different times....but I settled on these two (for my personal choice in a collection) I was underwhelmed by the BLRO colors, don't get me wrong it's beautiful, I just wanted the more vibrant blue/red on the bezel. My favorite color is blue, so it's smurf for a WG piece for me. I have a black dial SS that I love, (Exp II) so Hulk was my other choice.

BLNR and black dial SuB are great pieces also!

NSmalls · 19 February 2017, 06:40 AM

BLRO and Ceramic Submariner Date would be my choice. Pretty close to what I have now, except I have a 16710 in stainless steel instead of the BLRO.

SMURF and BLNR vs BLRO and LVC ..... tough choice and I honestly don't know which I would choose. First world problems.

Golfster · 19 February 2017, 07:51 AM

Both are great but I prefer Subs to GMT's and would choose the Smurf.

RichM · 19 February 2017, 07:54 AM

Smurf and BLNR would make a super combo.

The BLNR is one of the few watches I've flipped that I would like to have back in my collection.

brandrea · 19 February 2017, 07:58 AM

I'd vote BLRO and SS Sub. Reason being, BLRO provides for the traditional bi coloured bezel and you can get your everyday wear out of the SS Sub.

Al1969 · 19 February 2017, 08:03 AM

I don't think you can go wrong with either BLRO or Smurf . Either one will fit nicely with what you currently have.

Runnin' Rebel · 19 February 2017, 08:22 AM

Good luck

Love blue Sub with green being my favorite color. I can't wrap my self around the PepsiC

I can't wait until the Plat Coke though

Blro

Speed · 19 February 2017, 08:28 AM

That's a lot of maxi cases in a collection.

nick c · 19 February 2017, 08:30 AM

BLRO for me

AK797 · 19 February 2017, 08:35 AM

BLRO and Hulk for me, need at least one sunburst Rolex dial.

AS1 · 19 February 2017, 08:56 AM

blro

Maiden · 19 February 2017, 09:02 AM

Just personal preference but Smurf all the way. Cant stand the pink color on the BLRO. The original pepsi colors look so much better.

ap1 · 19 February 2017, 09:05 AM

Neil's YG sunburst and BLNR or LN. I've also owned all four. Blro > smurf but in the end the pastels just didn't keep my attention.

leng · 19 February 2017, 09:14 AM

Both are great choices but for me the surf gets my vote. The blue just pops compared to the blro. Also the glide lock is the kicker for me all things being equal.

Goin2drt · 19 February 2017, 09:19 AM

Smurf all the way.

james walters · 19 February 2017, 09:37 AM

Blro

beachbum · 19 February 2017, 09:54 AM

I had the BLRO for less than a week. The white gold was great but the blue/red on the bezel was just off to me. The red is more cranberry to me at least. I know the watch is very popular here but it was just missing something.

Oyster Al · 19 February 2017, 09:59 AM

Smurf edges out in my mind 60/40
