modern bluesy

Hi guys

It's been a few months since I fell in love with the TT ceramic blue sub
Day by day I like it more and more

I was always a fan of the classic 16613 in blue but I really prefer the new slightly bigger case, bezel and clasp

May I see a few scans and hear some feedback from the owners here ??

Thanks in advance

Went to Maui for vacation in April. Visited the Barron and Leeds just to look. Tried on a TT Blue Sub C and loved it. They offered me a little discount and also had a no tax special, wore it home. It is a beautiful watch and the perfect companion to my SS GMT ll C. What I like the most about the new blue is that in all different lights, it still looks blue. Tired of all the negative posts regarding the new blue. Yes it's different from the old blue, wear one for a while and you will agree, it's a beauty.

I just bought one myself, absolutely love it!!! All I have is this shot, no wrist shot, sorry...

I actually prefer the new blue, larger case and maxi dial myself as well

I like the maxi dial, bigger case and better bracelet with the Glidelock, but not the new shade of blue. It's a bit too ordinary for my taste - the old one looks richer and deeper and combines better with the gold.

New Blue SUB C

I am a fan of ROLEX Blue/Gold combination.. Both models (16613LB/116613LB) look nice and attractive.. I traded my old Sub with the new Sub C as I prefer better the new maxi everything.. For me the new Blue is more attractive because it changes tone according to the light !

Now that you mention it!!

Ever noticed how the letters on the dial of the blue TT Sub are yellow but on the black TT Sub they're white?

These things happen when you have on your wrist the beast (116660 that is) . Everything else looks tiny. The poor 16613 looks like a lady's watch in comparison !!!

Mind if i ask you, when i'll see it (116613) in flesh ????
