If only one, then BLNR. More versatile. Otherwise, 116613LB.

That GMT with the blue/black is really cool. And the extra time zone too. That’s a nice watch.

As a traveler the BLNR would be the perfect 'just one watch'.

BLNR.

I do LOVE the blusey, and almost pulled the trigger on one recently. My next piece is either that or the two tone Root Beer (I have a BLNR and Hulk, but I love GMT's more in general.

I'll be holding out for the CHNR two tone.

Blusey is stunning but IMO where I live in NYC it screams "hey come rob me". IMO I think the root beer two tone ever rose is subdued and might attract less attention, which Is what I like.

I have a 16613 and a BLNR and the question was referring to both ceramics watches, but what I would say is that the 16613 is more comfortable to wear and looks and feels the dogs bollocks and has a presence about it.
I'm on my 3rd BLNR now, I've sold 2 then like an old girlfriend I've kept returning to BLNR.
I think a BLNR and a ceramic Bluesy wear very similar on the wrist having tried them, so I want something different and more vintage got a 16613.
I wear each my of watches for different occasions, so if want want just one to do everything get a BLNR, it does that, it's smart, casual, but women don't notice or care that it's got a 2 colored bezel and my girlfriend took one look and said I prefer your other one, referring to my Datejust 41 and that was it.
The Bluesy however makes you feel good, it's summer on your wrist.

Currently own the BLNR but, I'm actually torn since the Bluesy is such an iconic model.

I'm wearing my Bluesy today at work. How can you turn down this dial. Top 3 best dials Rolex offers out of their entire lineup.

I’d say BLNR. If only one, I’d take the one with the more useful complication, and I travel frequently.

That is a really tough question. I have both and have always thought that the Bluesy is without a doubt, one of the most stunning watches I have ever seen. That being said, I almost never wear mine because I'm afraid of scratching the pcls. The one I wear is the regular Submariner as a daily watch.
