Sub 16613LB (Bluesy) - first time wearer notes..

I've seen several threads of folks considering buying this watch (116613LB) wondering how flashy it is, and how much attention it gathers.

I've now had the watch for 2+ weeks, and worn it almost daily .. and have taken one trip to Las Vegas, played mostly poker.

Back at home in Seattle, the watch does not gather much any attention at work (tech worker), or as i go about my daily activities.

In the casino setting though, I've never had so many comments made to me about my watches .. (I also wear a breitling avenger 2 seawolf with the yellow dial, and a PAM 1523 with a white dial).

Both my other watches are not subtle, and i gather comments about them usually once every six months, if its more than that its usually from other watch lovers.

The TT Sub got at least one comment per day (over a 5 day trip), and it was from non-watch folks, the types of comments ranged from compliments on the looks, to commentary about my possible financial position if i wear this watch. (all comments occurred at the poker table).

So just fyi -- in some settings this watch can be an attention grabber, i personally don't mind, i was surprised that it got that much attention, but it fit well with the table image i was trying to project, so for me its a pretty darn good Las Vegas poker watch.
