Can both co-exist?
I plan to get a BLNR from my AD, but I also own a 16700. To those who own both, can these two co-exist? I can't bring myself to give up on the 16700. It's a no-brainer for me.

You are so right! It's so balanced on the wrist, and one of the best references ever existed. The "last of the GMTs". |

So true! Aluminum inserts/bracelets are interchangeable. Cheap to replace. |

 2 totally different watches. The 16700 is my favorite watch but scratches a different itch than the BLRO.

Yes. I sold my 1675 and bought a 16710 to get the 3185 caliber independently adjustable hour hand. I should have kept both.

The 16700 is a great reference and a big regret if you sell it - IMHO
