I have the black, and actually prefer the blue/black. But wouldn't have both.
A GMT is a little more functional with a bi-color bezel.

I've had both. The BLNR was with me for over a year, but gradually got less wrist time, and was sold a couple of months ago. I just found the blue too bright (is that blasphemous?)

Anyway, I then picked up an LN, and I'm far happier. Loving the subtlety of the green details. Horses for courses, I guess!

So I think you should buy the LN. And you should give it fair wrist time along with your BLNR. I bet I wouldn't be alone in being curious about the outcome, particularly after the honeymoon period is over. Which child will you love more!! Please keep us posted!

Have you considered the tt GMT-C?

I have both the two tone GMT-C (bought first) and the BLNR and wear each for a different purpose.

No way, too close, BLNR only, as I love the look of it.

I gave BLNR a chance many times. LN with green touch is pure class and allure

It's 98% the same watch. I wouldn't. But then again, I'm not you. If you like it buy it

Sure, why not? Many people own similar-yet-slightly different versions of Submariners, Datejusts, Daytonas, and nobody squawks. It GMTs are your thing, go for it. I've got 4 (soon to be 5) BLROs alone.

The black GMT2 looks like a Sub, IMO.
