Hi everyone,

Will keep this simple!

Was previously looking at the GMT BLNR SS or the SS Submariner (maybe even TT).

Anyhow, what would you prefer....

The GMT-master ii BLNR or the TT Daytona with the blue Arabic dial?

I woulda liked a white dial with the numbers on the Daytona but that's not available on the new watches.

What do you think I should get and why?

(Note: GMT: I like the Date function, don't really need the dual time zones. Daytona: would never use the chronograph)

Thanks everyone!

Update: Meant the blue arabic dial (with the numbers) not panda!

BLNR gets my vote.

There is no Daytona blue panda dial

Danny83 · 3 August 2016, 08:59 AM

Blnr but the two tone Daytona with a blue dial is pretty nice

zjd168 · 3 August 2016, 09:07 AM

for me the BLNR over any TT Daytona

x2.

If talking about the blue arabic dial, that is pretty sweet. But, just about anything TT is going to get thumped by anything SS on this forum. And, this forum is crazy about the BLNR, so...

Maybe a fairer comparison would be the TT bluesy vs. the TT Daytona.

How about the TT Panda?

Mezz72 · 3 August 2016, 09:56 AM

blue panda??!! ��

Not the BLNR. Every second thread on here is another incoming BLNR. It should have its own sub forum.

Because it's a great watch.

BLNR gets my vote.

RichM · 3 August 2016, 11:10 AM

Having had both. Mine was the TT White Dial Panda, I'd go for the BLNR. It's a real winner.

JRT · 3 August 2016, 11:14 AM

BLNR no brainer.

Muzz · 3 August 2016, 11:15 AM

BLNR, I feel you are already leaning towards that choice as well with the date function being important. Both are nice pieces.

BLNR over the TT Daytona

Solo118 · 4 August 2016, 04:03 AM

BLNR, if it is your one and only.

If you have other SS watches, the TT with Blue arabics would be an awesome addition.

bio guyver · 4 August 2016, 05:35 AM

The blnr is cool but I chose the blue tt Daytona and I already have it never swap it with blnr the Daytona is upper grade.

Brian Page · 4 August 2016, 05:41 AM

It's really a question of TT or not - I personally like the TT Daytona and have owned one before. If TT were the question, Daytona TT would be the only TT I would own ( or maybe a Bluesy...) :) Good luck!

sensui · 4 August 2016, 05:59 AM

This is a tough one.....I think as the only watch I'd steer toward the BLNR but that Daytona with the blue dial is beautiful as well....just not as functional with the date/complication BLNR got going.

JeffP · 4 August 2016, 02:28 PM

TT Daytona Blue Dial gets my vote...BLNR is very nice also though.

daytonaTBR · 4 August 2016, 02:56 PM

Blnr

Psmith · 4 August 2016, 08:49 PM

This however SS white Daytona would then be over the BLNR. Good luck.
