I saw the Pepsi for the first time today and the colours look very muted. The blue on the BLNR pops.

Jim Smyth · 16 December 2018, 03:48 AM

Just saying...............

doboy007 · 16 December 2018, 04:33 AM

Blnr ftw

eco8gator · 16 December 2018, 04:44 AM

Both are very cool...can't go wrong with either.

TswaneNguni · 16 December 2018, 04:50 AM

Question : Is the Blue/red coloring of the bezel insert on the SS BLRO and the WG BLRO exactly the same ? (I suppose so )

LesserBlackDog · 16 December 2018, 04:52 AM

It may be sacrilege but I feel the BLNR is the definitive edition of the ceramic GMT. The BLRO is trying to be something else and not quite nailing it (blue and red tones are a bit off and weirdly purply IMO).

Air Rescue 5 · 16 December 2018, 05:04 AM

Great pics! That BLNR is so dang classy!

marcopolo05 · 16 December 2018, 05:29 AM

Jeeeeez. These pictures are almost making me regret being on a waiting list for the BLRO

It is OK for me although I am not fully satisfied with its bezel colors, if I can pay for it by MSRP.

JBrown717 · 16 December 2018, 07:28 AM

Kind of surprised to say this, but the BLNR has a slight edge. My two cents...

Blro ftw!

sensui · 16 December 2018, 07:57 AM

I just saw the watch this morning on a friend. We chatted as we exchanged watches to check out etc......but yeah, the 5 digit is still the winner for me. I do think it looks pretty good on a jubilee though though on closer inspection. Hopefully someday my turn will come.....the BLNR is still better for me.

Locust · 16 December 2018, 09:09 AM

I initially really wanted blro, but impulsively bought the tudorgmt and now have blnr wrapped for xmas. Like the blue a lot better on the blnr. BLRO is still beautiful though. Both are winners

The debate still goes one.

BLNR really pops, and love mine.
All my watches are on oyster bracelets, but I'm liking the jubilee more and more.

So for me a BLNR on jubilee would be a real winner.

Definitely not. Different material, and color processing. I personally prefer the WG version.

Did you put the jubilee bracelet from the BLRO on your blnr?

No mate, i got a 63600 Bracelet, it is the one with the hidden clasp used in 116200 - 116234 DJs.

Fits straight to the BLNR; only thing you need to change is the springbars, got 1.8mm ones instead of the 2mm (i think) used on the BLNR stock bracelet.

Chadridv was great help as he offered advice on the change.

sager · 17 December 2018, 01:30 AM

I agree with those saying that the BLRO bezel seems a big bigger (wider) than the BLNR. It certainly looks that way in the pictures.

I wonder if we could get proper measurements.
