LV or BLNR

[floater156]

Both are beauties.
Sub pros: glidelock, classic design, timer bezel function
GMT pros: Cool color combo, GMT function (although I never use mine), lighter weight = comfortable to wear.

I'd go with the GMT between these.

Hulk as it just SHINES when you move it in the light. Either way though both are so popular you could easily sell/trade if you want to change it after the purchase.

Green is though color to combine with other colors related to attire. But as it is a watch where the amount of green is pretty limited you would be relative ok. Specially because the most part of the watch is steel.

But i still like the BLNR more.

Well for me a SS Rolex is a big purchase, but clearly it's not that much for you Mr. Goldfinger

Thank you!

No matter what watch you have LV or BLNR no one will notice and to the same after having on your hand for few months you will try to updgrade to a new one. 99% this is the case with everybody no matter if you agree or not.

Excuse us but this is rolexforums.com where opinion matters that's why they called it a forum

BLNR

[Racerdj]

My advice for you is to see both on your wrist but my choice is the BLNR.

It is to me too mate, but just saying that as much as I love the glidelock and wish my DD2 esp had one, I can't let that restrict me to just the Sub, just too much out there to enjoy and life is too short.

I have a problem with adjustment. I Sold 8 Omega watches that I really liked last couple of years and the fit was one of the main reasons. My wrist changes a lot and the long clasp with glidelock was my first experience with perfection on my wrist. It's not that I use it everyday, but the fact that I know it's there makes me tolerate more than I would if I had to use any tool (not available at the moment) to make perfect adjustment. Now I see beautiful watches that I would love to own but I know I would flip just because of the non glidelock clasp. It may sound crazy but its a big deal for me.

I went with the hulk because it was more interesting to me but there is no wrong choice between the 2

While I do want a BLNR, I wouldn't give this up for it

[Rogdogg]

I have both of them and I love them both. I really don't think there is a wrong answer. What makes me say that is this, sometimes when I'm wearing them I think which one of the two would I get rid of if I had to sell one. When I'm wearing the BLNR for a couple of days I say I would keep that and get rid of the hulk first, but when I've been wearing the Hulk for a couple of days I say to myself I would keep the Hulk and get rid of the BLNR first haha. I cannot make up my mind. They're both fantastic pieces and I hope I never have to get rid of any of them.

Wow, great explanation. It makes total sense, thank you very much!

[AIKO]

I have owned both, they are equally stunning in their own way. For me, the Glidelock clasp on the Sub puts it clearly ahead in terms of comfort.

Ditto I never found the green amicable with all clothing colors. Yes I absolutely love the fine adjustments made with the glide lock. Somehow its gets loose and tight and is great to have that small adjustment during the day

BLNR looks much better with that shirt

[Clutch Cargo]

This!

[jbsmith]

LV for sure...glidelock, no pcls which u already have with daytona, beautiful dial, variety, and it's a sub. I almost got the blnr, but then the D blue came out. The d blue definitively filled my need for blue in a very cool way. :)

Thank You, and love your new BLRO!!

[Chadridv]

I literally just got my LV this morning, so I'm definitely biased. But with that said I had a really tough time deciding between the SS GMTIIC the BLNR and the LV. Ultimately the HuLk just spoke to me. After staring at it almost all day today I realized this is a watch I can imagine still being in love with 10+ years from now. Don't know for sure if I'd feel the same about the BLNR.

I imagine the LV aging really well and becoming a classic one day.

Can't really lose either way though.

[kentheevil]

I own both and I'd say sub it's just so unique and special

[MTROIS]

I absolutely love my BLNR and would recommend it to anybody in a heartbeat, but given your current Daytona and the fact that you are even considering the LV, I would say go for that one due to diversity.

[regnant]

BLNR is

[dave_dave]

Can't really go wrong with either but I'll go blnr as its just abit nicer.

Lv

[elkaholic]

From my standpoint:

SubLV-I like it because it's a Sub and it does not have polished center links. As good as PCL's look, I'd be constantly aware of and doing all I can to avoid scratching them, but that's just me. The one and only negative to the SubLV for me is the green-I am not convinced (because I haven't worn one for more than 5 min max) that it looks right with anything you could wear. That boils down to personal taste in color.

BLNR-love the black dial and the black/blue bezel insert. It is lighter in weight on the wrist. The one and only negative-for me is the polished center links as mentioned above. They look great, but would bother me personally once they get scratched up.

I probably didn't help much, but I really think you'd love either one. Go with what catches your eye most, or what initially did when you began looking at these two models.

[Rolovespa]

Go for an Hulk.
I had a Batman but i don't keep it.
Looks like the other one, my opinion.
But the green giant is a very special watch with an amazing dial.

love it, looks awesome on you!!

[red1108nyc]

BLNR with glidelock would be the ULTIMATE for me..

[kh1970]

I got a BLNR last year and it barely leaves my wrist, so I would say BLNR, good luck with the choice.
