Let's rank the right handed SS GMTs.
I wanted to add the VTNR, but the math doesn't work out. The TRF polling mechanism won't support that many combinations. So, I only included the right-handed SS options, unfortunately.

I wanted to wait to see the GRNR. I really like it but not as much as the BLNR, but still more than the BLRO. BLNR is still conservative enough to wear with anything and also has a nice pop of color. It has the best blue on any watch I have seen, without overdoing it like the BLRO with the blue and red. BLNR is the best of both worlds and I truly believe the best Rolex right now. I talked myself into getting it again! Also I prefer all GMTs on jubilee.
BLNR>GRNR>BLRO

I always think it's a mistake to judge a watch one has never had on the wrist, so I didn't take part in the poll.
I will say, however, that the new "Silver Fox" -- the gray-black GMT II -- looks pretty good to me in the photos.

For me it really depends on the bracelet…..my three favorite are GRNR on jubilee, BLRO on oyster and BLRO on jubilee.

The BLRO had grown on me a little throughout the years, I like it paired with the black sub, I just can’t completely get into it.

The BLRO colors look so much better on the website than they do in actuality. Kind of like food ads...
BLNR > BLRO >>>>> GRNR for me. |

GMTs are liked due to their color splash on the bezel. Personally for me, I always look for a unique color combo of the GMT to set it apart from other Rolex offerings. While I think the black and red, coke bezel, is the best, I can see why BLRO is #1 in many ppl’s eyes.
The new GRNR is a bit boring…. |

Somewhat predictably the BLRO steams into the lead, with the "known quantity" of the BLNR in second place, and the watch pretty much no-one has yet seen in person in 3rd.
Personally (and no great shock considering which one I personally went for) I'd go with this (and I've included both the original LN and the VTNR for fun) - BLNR > LN > BLRO > GRNR and somewhere waaaaaay off in the distance, the weirdo that is the VTNR

I agree, pics can deceive to flatter, as in all things. I would however put the VTNR ahead of the GRNR if four choices were provided. The colors on the BLRO "Pepsi" always seemed a bit off and I prefer the look of the vintage anodized aluminum bezels which have more pop.

I put them in the order that I'd realistically like to own them: 1) BLNR, 2) GRNR, 3) BLRO
I understand the love for the BLRO. I don't like red, though. Never been a color that suits me. (I'll have a Ferrari in Tour de France blue, please :)) I also don't really want to own a SS GMT. They're cool & I appreciate them (I wouldn't kick one out of bed), but it's not a watch that I'd hunt down.

I rank them BLRO.
It's the homage to the original icon. None of the others interest me. |

Actually voted for the BLRO due to its history and level of icon, but the BLNR might be objectively the nicest one

Exactly. When I ask people not on this forum or know anything about Rolex history, they like the black and blue more.

1. BLNR
2. BLRO 3. VTNR 4. GRNR I'm biased though. I have the BLNR on jubilee and none of the others. The latest BLRO colors seems too paisley to me, that being said, I wouldn't pass on it if it were offered to me. I like the aluminum colors of the older BLRO more. I would really love to have the VTNR (I've expressed my interest to my AD) but the crown placement throws me off. The new SS GRNR's bezel colors just blend together too much and might as well have been all black.

If I owned all 3 (on jubilee of course) I think I would wear the GRNR most often followed by the BLNR then the Pepsi. SO, I picked #1.
