BLNR out of those two but I love both. SD4K or SubC (date or no date) for an every day watch that's not listed.

Good choice either way. I'd bet the BLNR. I have it now and love it. It is a little more subtle than the Bluesy, unless you want a more in your face watch. I plan on getting the Bluesy soon, as me and my wife loves it.

Seems like BLNR's have really tightened up lately in the US.

Almost always overlooked on these forums, but easily the best daily IMO with it's rugged looks, durability, and adjustability(glidelock). Plus it's relatively understated compared to the other options, which is a plus in my book for a daily

I 100% agree. The 116610LN is my daily wearer as well. Between the workhorse movement, iron clad materials (sapphire, ceramic, 904L) and the glidelock, it is damn near the perfect everyday watch. The ChromaLight blue lume is the cherry on top.

Huh. So a watch that was first introduced in 1953 for Pan Am Pilots hasn't reached iconic status yet....

He means the black and blue bezel version. I think the BLNR is a modern day classic. I mean how can you go wrong with black and blue (day and night) I'm biased because black and blue is my favorite color combo

I figured that's what he was trying to say.

Only one watch guy? I would have the 116610LN and not the Bluesy.
I need also something under the radar, the bluesy isn't.

I've never owned a 16610LN nor the 116610LN...
Always thought it was a little too bland for me .
Not that it's not a icon or beautiful watch but I've
wanted a bit of color in my watches . That's why I
Like the BLNR over the LN GMT and the Bluesy Sub over
the LN Sub C date ...

Although I might consider it since tastes do change ...

for only one watch from your list, the BLNR. More versatile; also i'm not fond of TTs, although the Bluesy dial is gorgeous.

Between those two as an all arounder? BNLR, however, I would prefer a black SubC date.

For me the Bluesy.... It's sexual chocolate, IMO...

Although my orange Omega PO is my favourite watch, that I wear more!

Everyone to their own
