Batman vs Bluesy

A buddy of mine came over with his brand new Bluesy, so we took some pics! What do you think TRF? Which one do you prefer?

If you like blue, these are nice pair to have. GMT as a one watch for me.

Blue TT Sub for me, I find it a lot more striking on the wrist.

Both are great but I prefer the Bruce Wayne.

The bluesy is a bit too flashy for my person taste so I would have to go with the Batman. Actually tried on a exhibition piece yesterday at an AD and liked it a lot. That would be the watch to get in the meantime while waiting for the Daytona. lol

Of those two, would have to be the BLNR. Relatively understated and clean, with a useful complication.

I own several subs and love them, but the TT bluesy is just SO unappealing to me.

Bluesy 1000%. It’s a much prettier watch and a classic reference. Also not sure why so many think it’s flashy. Flies way more under the radar than you would think.

I personally find anything with gold tone a bit too flashy. It is brighter.

BLNR, not even close. Also the picture needs better lighting.

Bluesy as the royal blue dial color contrasting with gold is pure class

BLNR - Always thought the blusey seems a little cheesy

This combo is a perfect pair. I would rate them equal if the BLNR was on a jubilee.
My .02 ...The bluesy sees way less wrist time than my Sub, but when it does, it’s a show stopper.

Opted for a 116710BLNR and SD43 for my 1-2 punch.

Always did toy with trading the 126600 for a Bluesy though and this isn’t helping!
