Rolex 116710 BLNR vs Rolex 116613 LB vs Omega Planet Ocean Chrono

I am in the process of purchasing either one of them by the weekend....but cant really decided as to which one best?? The new GMT2 (blue/black) or the two tone Subs with blue dial. Personally I love the new chrome bezel of the GMT2, but other than that there is nothing new. ALSO I will be forced to pay premium (NO discount any where) since it is brand new. On the other hand with the 116613, you can nego the price a bit, and I think has more features (least there is 18K gold in addition to plain steel)?? Another one I am thinking is the Omega Planet Ocean Chrono top of the line (232.90.46.51.03.001). Now I know this is the ROLEX section so I may get a bias response. (but I am hopeful someone who have both can give me feedback). I guess if I were to look at the value, the OMEGA has more features (titanium, liquid metal, etc..) and cost at over $2K cheaper. GOSH....I am really torn as to which one I should buy

Try and find a well-priced 116613 and when the BLNR market softens, flip the Sub for the GMT.

Any idea what is a good price for a brand new 116613LB?? at least I know how to bargain the price and try my luck??

Not a clue, sorry, and I'm sure the market in Australia is vastly different from that in the USA. Heck, the market in Canada is different than the USA and we're neighbours.
