Now I've owned both for at least a week, I still haven't made up my mind as they both have their advantages and weaknesses. Previous polls have the bluesy always on top. Let's see if the trend has changed...

What would you pick and why, no matter the state of collection you have?

126613LN

VS.

126613LB

the dark knight · 30 May 2023, 03:39 PM

In recent years I've become a huge fan of that black/YG combo in watches. So I'd go with LN.

ducatiti · 30 May 2023, 03:42 PM

Times are changing! LN now leading so far :)

alphadweller · 30 May 2023, 03:45 PM

I voted LB. LN is alright, but it's yet again another black dial. The blue dial and bezel are on another level, much more striking. Also, I prefer.the blue and gold combination to black and gold. The LB is more fun to wear, to me personally. I took the LB home without hesitation, but never felt that way with the LN and just passed.

Imran · 30 May 2023, 04:02 PM

LB would be my choice...hopefully one day. Blue and yellow gold combination is really special.

minute_man · 30 May 2023, 04:21 PM

I like the LB, I'd wear the LN.

Guppydriver · 30 May 2023, 05:48 PM

I just think black dial belongs on a stainless sub.... it's natural environment if you will. If you are going to go two tone to be different, make it POP with the LB. Bluesy get's my vote !

Devildog · 31 May 2023, 01:14 AM

LN - all day every day.

I had one and the combination of the black and Gold works well. The gold numbers on the black bezel are pure class. The blue is just too "in your face" for me and I don't think the bezel works half as well.

Its JPS lotus 93 F1 car VS Subaru WRC. Both to be admired but one is a thing of sublime beauty and the other is a Subaru (albeit an extremely successful one)

Old Geezer · 31 May 2023, 01:21 AM

I wore a 11613ln as a daily for 10 years. I chose it over the LB because it is slightly less flashy than the LB and for me, appears more formal in a business setting wearing a suit.

phillyEagles · 31 May 2023, 01:23 AM

I bought the LN because I think it better matches my darker skin tone.

I think you’ve got it right OP … both

Big Tex Rolex · 31 May 2023, 01:47 AM

Both great.

One is greater …

126613LN, not a fan of the blue with the gold, too much of a contrast

ducatiti · 31 May 2023, 05:13 AM

Close so far. Not a landslide compared to older polls.

Cru Jones · 31 May 2023, 06:13 AM

I voted “coin toss”. Why? Because for the longest time I was convinced that LB TT was the way to go. But now I see the merits of the LN TT and might actually prefer it.

So, yeah, coin toss.

Cwall12345 · 31 May 2023, 06:34 AM

Black goes with everything.

Without even scrolling down I can tell you Bluesy will win again….. it’s more striking

That said the LN is a dark horse - no pun intended - I’m biased - own one and prefer it as a daily - it’s more versatile IMO & there is just something I love about gold and black…….

I guess to me I would be more specific - if someone asked me which movie I think is a better film or the one I rather watch over and over again - they would have different answers - same thing with meals - certain meals I would say are better/tastier/more fun - but would live on them…..

The LN pips it for me, black and gold combo on a Sub beats the other models such as the same combo on a TT Sky-Dweller IMO. However the LB is a more unique colour combo across the range and is still a great piece.

I like both of them but I’d gladly choose the Ln.

Joearch · 31 May 2023, 02:25 PM

I had a 5 digit LN for a year or so and realized the TT didn’t work for me. By brother has the LB and I must say it looks stunning on his wrist tough call…..

jimcarver · 31 May 2023, 05:14 PM

All gold and black wins, TT and blue for me.
