Bluesy for me...its an iconic Rolex, and the best looking IMO...
Though, BLNR is a close second along with the HULK...

BLNR all day long. To me, TT watches scream "Hey ladies! One of you want a ride in my Fiero GT? You do?!?! Sweet! Let me grab my Members Only jacket and herringbone necklace and then we'll roll!"

Bit extreme....I've owned the BLNR twice and yes, definitely a more understated watch...dare I say boring??? Comments seem a bit cliche...but to each their own!
Ironically, between the two, I'd also say BLNR. But I'd pick the TT black dial sub over either.

BLNR is my vote

IMHO...I’m not a fan of two tones. I believe they are harder to sell (so says my AD)

You think? I wasn't trying to offend your love of TT's. My comment was....dare I say....lighthearted. After recently retiring, I've come to the freeing conclusion that life is too short to be so tightly wound.....but to each their own!

No offense taken at all. Like I said, I actually prefer the blnr vs the bluesy.

BLNR or This? GTFO. There is no competition between these 2.

Bluesy hands down the dial is not even comparable in terms of beauty.

One Rolex .... DSSD. I LOVE this watch.I have large wrists as well
One Panerai .... Blue Bronzo.No question


BLNR ..every day choice
Sub C TT Blue Sunburst ...most likely the most beautiful Rolex.

Tough choice.

Solution:Both

Definitely Bluesy. Cannot understand the popularity of BLNR.

Well, regarding Bluesy I have one gripe - somehow it reminds me of the flag of Sweden. Well, I guess no watch is perfect

BLNR for sure since it's more bang for the bucks - Love the Bluesy if I had more formal cloths.

A fad? Because it's only been out for six years?
