126613LN vs 126613LB - 2023 Poll
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 |

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

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.

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

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 !

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)

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.

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

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

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

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. |

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.

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…..
