Since I have been posting for a while I figured I should show you my SS Sub. I love this watch. I sold my Blusey to buy it. Should have bought this guy in the first place. Loved the blusey just too flashy for this retired sub sailor. Sorry for the poor picture.

Very nice SS-Sub.

Glad you found what makes you happy.

However I would never trade my Bluesy for a SS, what's wrong with a little flash?

tudorman8276 · 27 July 2008, 02:33 PM

....your propellor!!! At least you remained with the Sub line-up...

Just in case you miss the bluesy a little bit......

But I agree with Larry, black is even more versatile. Just love the cobolt blue...

Very nice, indeed

To listen to some of you guys one would think a TT Bluesy is the equivalent of a diamond encrusted Liberace piano of something.

I guess you'd only wear this in the house at night.

Truth be told this retired Naval Aviator finds it too flashy at times too but I really like the gold, dark blue contrast. I guess all DON personnel do to some extent.

It just not me...fist I have I dont know any more ,20 tattoos, wearing earrings all the time. Only wear either polo or Tommy Bahama clothes so i guess I am a little strange. And feel great with the SS Sub....yes I at times miss the gold but this was my dream watch 30 years ago and now I have it. i do admit I am on a list at my AD for that new Rolex that can go to the bottom on the Marianas trench and still work....cant remember the damn name but its a cool watch. Yes the blue and gold do look great.

I went to eat at burger king in Merida two weeks ago. It was around 11:00 AM and I was wearing sandals, jeans and lacost polo shirt. A guy with a bluesy came to the store. He was wearing shorts, but he was very neat and clean on his dress. He was very self confident until he sow my LV. His bluesy was original but I notice he started to behave funny like embarrassed of his watch. I great him and started to eat. He never stopped to look at me and my LV but pretended he was not looking at me. I think bluesy is a little too much once in a while. I love the TT GMT II C, but I would never feel comfortable wearing it as my daily watch. You did good. SS is the way to go in all kind of situations.
