I have a blue 116613. I am looking for a GMT. Should I get the BLNR or TT GMT? Would the TT GMT be too close to the TT sub? Thanks for your help.

2807 · 23 September 2017, 12:22 PM

Well, the BLNR would certainly be very different. I would go with the BLNR.

A TT blue/gold and a TT black/gold are very different from each other, but they are very similar in totality.

The BLNR would be a nice change, and it sure is cool.

I have the all black GMT, saw it as more universal and dressier for my daily work life. The BLNR has a casual vibe to me. But, I do love it.

kentheevil · 23 September 2017, 12:28 PM

I'd go GMT TT, in fact I did and never looked back. The BLNR is nice but I'd prefer a blue dial rather than just half the bezel.

swils8610 · 23 September 2017, 01:08 PM

BLNR. I have a Bluesy and BLNR.

BLNR no brainer.

Runnin' Rebel · 23 September 2017, 02:09 PM

I'm not sure. I dislike them equally but own this one.

You'd have to try them both on.

Good Luck

I have a TT GMT and I love it! But the BLNR is also awesome. Good luck with your choice.

It is definitely not the weakest Rolex in the lineup...

You can't go wrong either way but BLNR is my call. I had a TT GMT II for a few weeks and upgraded to a YG GMT II which has seen almost no wrist time because I am so pleased with the BLNR.

Among all the watches I had and sold, I will consider buying the GMT TT again.
Gold bezel/numeral plus green hand/GMT script make it pop. Put it on rubber, you have a classy sport watch.

I’d say BLNR.

HK Islandboy · 23 September 2017, 04:26 PM

BLNR, but only because I'm not a big fan of TT

hambone1983 · 23 September 2017, 04:51 PM

I just picked up a 16713 in excellent condition for a lot less than a new BLNR, so that's my thought process

DeeTee · 23 September 2017, 05:15 PM

If GMT go BLNR
If TT go 116613

faz · 23 September 2017, 05:36 PM

Wasn't a fan of two tone gold/black before joining this forum, but they have grown on me since.

Frankly you can't go wrong with either. Go with the one they puts a bigger smile on your face.

Since you have the two tone already, perhaps BLNR first.

joli160 · 23 September 2017, 07:51 PM

116713LN, best TT ever made by Rolex

WEST HAM ROLEX · 23 September 2017, 07:53 PM

Not easy this one..
Love the TT & BLNR

But personally choose and wear the good old standard black

TimeOnHand · 23 September 2017, 09:07 PM

I too have the Blusey and TT GMT in my stable along with the Batman... However, My favourite GMT would have to be the TT! But get what you like!

Etschell · 23 September 2017, 10:06 PM

Gold is always better imo.

watchwatcher · 23 September 2017, 10:32 PM

My two cents: Get the watch you want and don't worry about how it fits in to the collection.

For me, that would the TT...but, what about you?

brandrea · 23 September 2017, 11:11 PM

The BLNR didn't stick for me, so I'd go TT. It's one of the better TT in the Rolex line up IMO

AK797 · 23 September 2017, 11:13 PM

A TT themed collection would be cool, don't see that too often.

Vishy26 · 24 September 2017, 12:33 AM

TT GMT for sure.
