BLNR my favorite modern SS Rolex.

warrior · 7 September 2015, 08:09 AM

Generally speaking, the guys on this forum seem to love busier bezels with "in your face" fonts. The busy bezel on the BLNR coupled with the large numbers...certainly makes it look less classy, timeless--a little too Sport LUMINOX, for lack of a better word. The BLNR is certainly high quality, not bad looking at all, and I love the blue touch and it's less common than the Sub, for sure. BUT, to me, the Sub is more classic, versatile, and elegant.

BLNR ticks all the boxes for me as a one and only, but I am not a one watch guy

mzmonzon · 7 September 2015, 08:53 AM

I went with keeping the BLNR as my only Rolex. Made the leap to an AP and hopefully get my PP grail soon!

BLNR for me.

smc23 · 7 September 2015, 10:02 PM

Tough one but would give the edge to the SubC.

BLNR because more people will notice and think you are successful, interesting, wealthy , sophisticated and better. Then you can get a matching car and live the Rolex dream.

mailman · 7 September 2015, 10:11 PM

Had both. BLNR still remains. It's much more comfortable on the wrist. Nicer looking too.

Robb · 7 September 2015, 10:14 PM

BLNR for sure. The perfect watch in my opinion

What does "one and only" mean?

I don't understand.

lol, lets just say theoretically if you were only allowed to have one rolex out of these 2, which would it be?

MX2000 · 7 September 2015, 11:49 PM

Submariner...classic

flatmad · 8 September 2015, 01:00 AM

Well I have both.. Sub C gets my vote.. My fav watch all time... GMT is a close second, no need to go by functions as no one needs a watch :)

If I had to choose, it would be the GMT (but would prefer the LN to the BLNR).

The BLNR is a no brainer for me.

Glide-lock (comfort) wins this contest of 2 beauties for me.

For me the Easylink is more comfortable than the Glidelock.

Nidal · 8 September 2015, 12:52 PM

Sub is more classic. No wrong answer.

Love the BLNR and will end up adding it in the future, but nothing stands on its own like a sub
