If the LN was released in 2021 it would be more impossible to get than a blue sky D.

Green text and hand? Wow!

LN looks more classy. The Pepsi is trying too hard

On the flip side PCLs and green hands on a sub seems more like the LN is phoning it in

Both are great. In all black I prefer a sub personally. The black bezel is more beautiful without the large text and there's no PCLs to fuss over.

Both if possible
If one and only I’ll choose the LN, if part of a collection I will pick the BLRO.

Pepsi or bust... 16710BLRO to 126710BLRO, and pretend there never was a 116710.

LN. I think it's the best watch Rolex has made in the last 20 years.

LN, simple black, white, metal. Feels like a Sub, classic, go anywhere. It's an essential.

The LN was my first ceramic Rolex. Loved that watch and wish I still had it.

That said, I love my BLRO and wouldn’t trade places

This thread should have been a poll! Anyhow as others have said, go for a Sub if you want all black. The BLRO wins by a mile for me but to each their own
