BLNR on jubilee for sure. I don’t think the black and green looks right IMO.

Neither. I don't particularly like the colours of the BLNR and the VTNR just looks wrong.

If you are not left handed why would you buy a VTNR. Leave it for who needs it.

BLNR. The VTNR is a very cool looking niche watch but the lefty look doesn't work for me.

Since I'm a righty it would be the BLNR. If lefty I'd go green.

I’m left handed but even when I tried it on my brain kept telling me I had it on upside down.(I wear my watches on my left hand)

The VTNR was an answer to a question no one asked. Right-handed watches work fine for us lefties unless you are trying to unscrew a crown and adjust the time on your wrist.

Congratulations Ken

How does it feel to wear a watch on the right wrist?

Whichever one you'll wear the most. If you are a lefty (like my dad) the choice is a bit more obvious imho.
