I have both, and the Milgauss is just a much cooler watch IMO, as well as working better on a strap. The BLNR hype around here has turned me off the piece a bit.

I chose BLNR... Of all my watches I wear that and my BBN the most. Although the BLNR is the only watch I wear on bracelet - which is the opposite of what you want to do...

BLNR for sure. Its more versatile and I would tire looking at the lighting bolt second hand.

For me, I've got to have a date.......that's why, otherwise the Milgauss is awesome!

Not a fan of blue, orange and green together on the Milgauss.

There is a reason the Milgauss has an applied crown and the gmt does not

For your purposes the Milgauss looks like it would work better on different strap options so it's got the versatility you're looking for. For me anything other than the oyster bracelet on the BLNR feels like a crime.

That 3 tone Milgauss strap is very creative.

Milgauss. Its face is unconventional and interesting. Plus it doesn't scream "LOOK AT ME!!! I AM A ROLEX."

I'd say BLNR everyday and twice on Sunday but those straps on the Mil look terrific. I can see why this is a hard choice when I thought "no brainier" from the thread subject.

The BLNR is one of, if not the hottest watch on TRF. So, if you ask us, you can guess what the answer is going to be.
The question is, what do YOU like better? |

BLNR for sure. If it's black dial GV milgauss, I would probably choose that one, not a fan of blue dial GV.

There are too many Rolex models that look like BLNR. Nothing special and sooner than later there will be another with different color combinations. Whereas, Milgaus is something different and not every one has it. I would go for it and keep look for GMT II or Sub in a good price for later.

Looks wise Milgaus is funky.
BLNR wins in terms if versatility, date.... If this is your only one than BLNR.

The BLNR gets my vote with no brainer because it is the most stunning all-rounder SS watch.

For me it's easy - BLNR. I value the date and GMT functions. And I'm not a fan of the polished SS bezel on the Milgauss.

I 'd go BLNR, I love my Z-Blue, yet the GMT is the more versatile watch.

Go Milgauss Blue---probably can be had for much less and the BLNR will flame out once the new Coke GMT comes out of hiding. Just keep the Milgauss on steal---and help put an end to the NATO. Just say no to NATO at all times. ![]() |
