Help deciding 116610LV or 116613 LB

Hey all,

So I am a recent DJ2 owner and I also have a DSSD C and a GMTC. I want to add another watch to my collection. I really like the hulk, but already have 2 SS models. I really like the blue SubC TT as well though.

Which one do you guys think I should get?

Of the two, I'd choose the LVC. The green dial is amazing!

Good luck!

If you want a TT and has the fund, why not?

You really like the LVc? Get it. You won't be satisfied with the other one. No point in being "rational".

Personally, no-brainer, the LVc is all that's good with a Submariner with the bonus of the dial and bezel.

Had both, had to sell one to fund another purchase. Sold the green, kept the blue. Both nice, but I have too much SS stuff, and some gold is nice to mix things up.

Wow tough choice. I would go with the gold by a hair, the blue is something else and the solid gold links are excellent!

I'm not sure that having all SS watches needs to be a factor in this. Get the watch that makes you more excited.

I'd go green, but I'm biased. ;)

I love both watches but if I had to choose one it would be the LV. The dial is simply amazing in person

I'd probably go with the TT. As you know, the Ceramic GMT has some "green" on it so I would think the TT would make your collection slightly more diverse.

Have you considered looking at older models? You may be able to get a used TT and LV Submariner for the same price as one new one! If this is a consideration, it's probable the route I would take.
