I have a 116613lb TT Sub with blue starburst dial. I want to upgrade to the
116618 YG my question is should I keep the bluesy and get the YG with black dial or just sell the TT bluesy and get the YG with blue sunburst dial. Any help will be appreciated.

thesharkfactor · 22 April 2018, 04:58 PM

I have same issue.. if you can afford to have both......

HK Islandboy · 22 April 2018, 05:27 PM

If going for a YG Sub, the only option for me would be the blue sunburst dial. And if you are then concerned that would make your Blu-ray redundant, I’d suggest swapping the bluesy for a Hulk.

Or even a SS Submariner

GFONG · 22 April 2018, 05:30 PM

I would suggest to keep the TT blue dial as sometimes or some situations you may not want to wear the full gold watch.

HK Islandboy · 22 April 2018, 05:31 PM

Others will doubtless have much better shots than these, but the YG with sunburst looks amazing

G'ed · 22 April 2018, 05:56 PM

Full YG watch is loud. TT is more versatile imho.

I worn my TT in shorts etc but for full YG, I don’t think I can pull that off.

Or go YG with the black dial like I did. It’s slightly less flashy.

Kinda what I was thinking.
I love the blue sunburst dial but one is enough for me.

That YG Sub with the black dial/bezel is gonna be flashy. No matter what. It's too beautiful not to be noticed.

I'd dump the bluesy for the full YG model.
Basically you're tying up $10K in a model that will have the same bezel, dial, pcls, and crown as the YG model. $10K for a steel case and steel bracelet bits is not worth it to me.

TT is actually louder than full gold as I have owned both.
OP, sell the TT, you won't wear it once you strap on the 618LB!

I have to agree with this.

Jake B · 22 April 2018, 06:33 PM

Keep the TT if you can, amigo. YG is a lot of fun but I still want to wear the TT and steel sometimes.

mikeps2006 · 22 April 2018, 06:39 PM

I prefer the TT over the YG version...that’s just me. No on the black dial. Blue sunburst is beautiful.

I had them both, but decided to upgrade to the YG. They’re both nice and I would be happy with either one.

RichM · 23 April 2018, 01:33 AM

I don’t have multiples of the same watch so the decision would be EZ for me. Flip the TT and go for the YG Sunburst Blue.

I did the same thing except I went WG.

joli160 · 23 April 2018, 01:36 AM

They can easily live together. I love to wear my TT as much as my PM watches

watchwatcher · 23 April 2018, 01:48 AM

If you are considering the black dial, then I would keep the TT and get the GMT 116718LN. Best of both worlds.

Hard_Six · 23 April 2018, 01:54 AM

I’m considering this as well. Just went and tried on the 116618LB yesterday. They had the black version there too but I think blue is definitely the way to go. The full yellow gold is certainly loud though. Definitely not something I would feel comfortable rocking as often as I do my TT. But man that blue is beautiful...

Etschell · 23 April 2018, 02:20 AM

id swap the tt for the pm and go blue.

Keep both! They’re unique

HogwldFLTR · 23 April 2018, 05:11 AM

Really they're are significantly different and both beautiful with the different metals!!! If you can swing it keep both. There's always time to sell later!!!

watchmework · 23 April 2018, 05:39 AM

I’d keep both if possible. If not, I’d sell the TT and buy the YG sub with the blue dial.

RollieRoll · 23 April 2018, 07:43 AM

The LB YG is arguably the most beautiful watch made by Rolex. Should just sell the TT

Kostas · 23 April 2018, 08:05 AM

Mystro · 23 April 2018, 08:12 AM

If money is no issue then sell the Bluesy for a 18k blue sunburst. That is the ultimate 18k yellow gold Sub. The weight,dial,clasp,etc.. is a force. It is very flashy so make sure it goes with your lifestyle.

TacticaLCawacoL · 23 April 2018, 08:15 AM

Keep the TT, i have the 116618LB and i am going to buy the 116613LB and put it on SS Glidelock.

Cause sometimes i can’t wear full YG but i need to have that blue sunburst dial around...
