SS GRNR(Bruce Wayne) Vs BLNR (Batman)
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.

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

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

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

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

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

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 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. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

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.

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 |

I own the BLNR and the BLRO and will add the GRNR once they are in the market. I have a lot of watch and if I had to choose it would be the BLNR for the color. If I only had a few watches then probably the GRNR on Jubilee.

In SS the BLNR by miles. The TT and PM GRNR is a different story.

I am literally going through this right now. I think the gray is a better one watch and the BLNR better in a collection. Does everyone agree with this? Might help OP decide.

Both have the same features. Matter of preference. The new GRNR is too bland for me. BLNR would be my choice.
