[Marciano]

Not sure if this has been covered yet. But which GMT is the better choice?

One doesn't perform any better than the other. Color choice is a personal preference; this is under the assumption that there is a choice to begin with and costs are equal.

Batman beats the Earl Grey.

[Apdl]

I think the Grey is nice but boring... the prices we see not will drop dramatically in the next 12 mo

[Cassian739]

Both are beautiful watches; it's a personal preference. For me, I prefer the BLNR "Batman"

[milgauss2232]

I think the BLNR looks better but that’s just my opinion.

[Nairn1980]

Better is the one you like more. BLNR has more pop for sure.

[Mathematoxic]

Prefer the BLNR. GRNR looks boring on stainless steel. Looks best on 2 tone IMO.

100% agree. I have the TT GRNR and the SS does nothing for me.

To the OP. As others have stated, only you can decide which one YOU like best. You will be the one wearing it, not us. What I like may not be what you like.

How exactly do we tell which one is ‘better’?

[Tobyone]

I have both, each one is lovely in its own way.

[agriculture&watches]

Batman for me

Batman out of those 2

Its funny the once prestigious brand of Rolex watches to some have become nothing more than comic book characters. Speaking for myself I always buy the watches I want to own and wear and that's the only opinion that matters.

I’d like to agree with young Padi on this ..
but my choice would be the Sprite - a soft drink character ..

Haha, I definitely agree with your sentiment. I never use the superhero names but I understand why some do. Easier to describe for them. But I agree with you, seems immature and lowering the brand.

I’m curious, I wasn’t paying attention to Rolex in the 90s or earlier, was there also a pushback from Rolex aficionados when people used the soda pop nicknames? I.e. Pepsi, Coke, Root Beer

One could argue soda pop nicknames and super hero nicknames are equally juvenile.

Of course there wasn’t, come on - it’s miserable grouches moaning for moaning sake, same people who’d win a million and moan it wasn’t two .. .. getting antsy over a name and you ask if it lowers the brand ? What on earth does that mean ? Someone won’t buy the new GMT because it’s getting called Bruce Wayne so they think sod that I’m not wearing that watch .. hahahaha .. … man, lighten up people it’s fun, life’s short chill seriously chill and enjoy the wonders these watches are whatever they’re called ..

I agree so ridiculous that users really reach to find geek tweeb names for these classy iconic watches LOL

[Krash]

I have a BLNR and would never exchange it for a GRNR. Not in a million years.

But the GRNR is growing on me. I like it better than the original all black ceramic GMT.

For me it all depends on your personal preference and what features you value the most, Both GMT-Master and Omega Seamaster GMT are excellent choices with their own unique qualities.

[travisb]

I prefer the toned down sleek look of the GRNR.

Same here. Owned the BLNR and it didn’t stick

Both are great iterations, I just prefer the GRNR

[Jb1264]

The GRNR is how Rolex gaslights us over bringing back the Coke

That said, the GRNR on an Oyster is a nostalgic and least conspicuous option over the BLNR

GRNR for the win

[mailman]

I prefer the BLNR.
