Gosh...why do I love this baby so much?

Man, what is it about this beauty that I can never tire of?

Is it the stunning steel & gold bracelet?
Is it the serrated bezel?
Could be superb TRIPLOCK crown?
No, no....could be those ominous lugs?
Ah yes....perhaps the superb bezel?
Maybe the clasp?
But, of course, are we all bloody blind? It's the UNIQUE stunning BLUE on this baby!! THE BEST BLUE IN THE WORLD, GUYS!!! Show me a better BLUE than this....and I'll show a better looking watch than the TT BLUE SUB!!!

Two weeks ago when I joined this forum that was my LEAST favorite Sub. Now, it's moved up to my third favorite. A couple more weeks of JJ's constant petitioning and I'll be seeing it in my sleep and drawing it with markers on my wrist.

Gorgeous pics JJ,

You're right, there's no other blue like it anywhere.

My wife wanted a TT YM with a blue dial, I did my best to put her off, trying to steer her to the white dial thinking we'd look like a couple of bookends if we wore them at the same time, but she had her heart set on the blue.

I needn't have worried, the YM dial has a darker/deeper blue, beautiful in its own right particularly with the contrasting red Yatchmaster font, but the Sub wins hands down in the "blueness" stakes

Agreed, Chris.....that's the very reason why I sold off my TT BLUE YM and then bought this baby. The BLUENESS of the SUB is unmatchable!!

Absolutely beautimous, JJ! And, you are quite the Rollie professional photographer. Love the last pic with the water droplets on Subbie. BTW: Your unfailing, and, positive descriptions of this wonderful watch in two tone has me sold on a Rolex TT sport watch, period! Thanks for always sharing the good spirit, good buddy!
