Acquire a 116710LN...

When you already have a 116713LN(TT)?
I’m kinda wanting SS all black GMT but have and Love the TT? Is it too redundant to have both?

I’d say those are definitely different enough to be in a collection.

It depends on the collector.

To me they’d be redundant, but I’m a 3-5 watch kind of guy. I was offered the 126710 BLNR when it came out, but since I already had the BLRO I passed.

There’s no wrong answer though .... there are some here who have multiple GMTs Subs etc etc.

Both right. OP, the answer lies with you.

Personally, the GMT 2c is my favorite modern reference, so I've allowed myself the luxury of having two. Other more 'normal' people might consider that a bit self-indulgent, however.

Agreed! Self-indulgent...naaahhh :)
I find the GMT complication my favorite of the main three...and having multiple gmt’s...all good! I have two as well

Have 16753 TT and 116710LN wear them both regularly and think nothing of it. Was thinking about the WG 116719BLRO as a next watch. I’d say go for.

I would add a bi-color bezel. A BLNR or a BLRO.

Good idea... waiting on one from my AD. Given they got me a white Daytona around 5 months ago I’m not holding my breath

How come the date text on both watches is green?

Don’t think I have seen that before.
