Final outcome to: If only one BLNR or Bluesy Sub C!!!
Ok , so life happened and I've become a
One watch guy for awhile ... As I loved both the BLNR and the Bluesy Sub C plus my TT Sub Black dial 5 digit ref ... I trimmed the collection down to one hopefully temporarily... The TT Black dial Sub went on to greener pastures and so did one more ... Can you guys guess which one survived the cut ??? Not that I can't say, it's just makes it a little more fun between the 2 because they are both excellent and stunning references in their own right plus the decision wasn't easy either .... So which one stayed and which one moved on to greener pastures? BLNR or Bluesy Sub C... ? Prior thread if interested: https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=532861 |

If you've sold the Bluesy I will call the mods.

Whichever one you kept, I am sure will put a smile on your face each and every time.
But from your forever support of Bluesy in almost all occasions during my short stay here, I say bluesy stayed.

I thought you sold the BLNR back in April. Anyway, so many pic threads started with your Bluesy lately, I can't believe you sold it.

That's a hard choice. I have the BLNR and will get a Bluesy as well and wouldn't be able to decide which to lose.
I think you kept the BLNR. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I have BLNR, and I am planning to add bluesy in the future. However, if I have to choose only 1, it is going to be BLNR. Just because it is more versatile, not getting attention so much as TT.

Ok , having dinner at the moment ...
A nice Bison burger at Ted Montana's to celebrate ... And the winner is ???? So if I miss my BLNR enough it'd be easier to flip my Bluesy for a BLNR than the other way around without extra out of pocket ... Bot I probably doubt it as blue is one of my Fav colors... |

You made the right choice my friend. Bluesy all day everyday over the BLNR. I flipped my BLNR for the Bluesy as well.
Mine says hi. |

My guess would have been the Sub staying Mario, so nice choice!
I know you had some good times with the BLNR, plenty more to come with the Sub! |

The BLNR is more versatile, but you made the right decision. It is obvious how much you love the Bluesy and it is on a different level of wow than the BLNR.

Can't go wrong with either honestly. I chose blnr because it's more versatile but bluesy was my first love.

I have both but chose to stay with the BLNR. But hey, variety right? And either choice is excellent.

Both are stunning time pieces and I would proudly wear either. I am glad you made the choice that makes you the happiest. Burger looks great too!
