I agree. When compared side by side the LN that was for many years under appreciated will become highly desirable and in my view is more versatile than the root beer.

The 116713 GMT TTc of course.

You must make this a fair comparison.

A bit of a cheating answer: LN if a daily. CHNR if part of a collection that incidentally displaces the LN as a daily unless actually traveling. Then back to the LN.

They both look nice in different ways, but a timeless classic? My vote is for the LN.

Thinking of Swapping the LN for the CHNR as a daily.....or adding to.

I'm partial to the LN since I have one, but I wouldn't kick the CHNR out of bed!

I am a sucker for anything LN, but that CHNR looks excellent on you so that is my vote.

Can you shave your arm and retake the photos....the hair is affecting my objectivity. Looks like my arm.

Can’t possibly make a decision from such incredibly close up and cropped photos. To answer your question of what looks best on you we would need to see pictures of the entirety of you with the watch included, rather than a tiny wrist shot which is next to useless as people are just saying their favourite watch which is not what you actually asked.

So many other factors can affect whether a watch looks good on someone including their height, build, hair colour, skin complexion, general dress style, proportions etc etc.
