I have owned both and the new one is a keeper. Just amazing presence on the wrist. Love the new clasp, maxi dial, ceramic bezel, the gold sprayed numerals on the bezel and the bigger case. Just spectacular!

FeelingTheBlues · 28 November 2012, 09:47 AM

The older model has my vote!

Sam Philip · 28 November 2012, 10:09 AM

New model for me

LightOnAHill · 28 November 2012, 10:10 AM

one possible suggestion might be to get the TT in YM, I think the blue is better than the current sub, more like your old one:

Nice

OP the new 116613 gets my vote

andyboy39 · 28 November 2012, 04:26 PM

Classic old version for me..

Zed82 · 28 November 2012, 06:49 PM

New one. There is no competition on the matter, the old hollow bracelet is more fragile and tends to stretch. For me, it´s not an option to own a watch with a $3000 bracelet with a short lifespan.

The color on the 116613 seems light and flat but in real life, it switches between light blue and dark blue depending on the light.

16613 old blue is amazing in looks! I never seen the new blue in real life but its look very toyish to me in the pictures/videos I seen.

Rocco22 · 28 November 2012, 10:13 AM

Either one is great but I would go new cause the new subs are really updated well in my opinion.

New ones are sweet but the 16613 is the classic TT! Just my opinion. Wouldn't mind having a new sub date though!

mvmbles · 28 November 2012, 11:06 AM

I love the brilliance of the old dial, but if I'm buying precious metal, it HAS to be solid through and through. I went with the 116613.

gwozhog · 28 November 2012, 11:07 AM

New SubC is better in all current models. The old watch is nice too, but the new sub is better.

CMT · 28 November 2012, 11:22 AM

16613 for me.

I admittedly covet certain aspects of the 116613. While the new design is nice, it's really the new bracelet and clasp that I want the most. However, were I to flip my 16613 for the new version I would gravely miss the signature starburst blue of the 16613, which is my most cherished aspect of the watch...it's a blue I pined for over far too many years to give up.

Good luck whatever the ultimate choice.

Bulldurham08 · 28 November 2012, 12:42 PM

New.

The Glidelock clasp and new ceramic bezel are enough to suck me in! Love the classic TT, but the new is just a more solid piece...

financeman · 28 November 2012, 01:33 PM

I love everything about the new one other tha. The color. The color of the older one is so much richer and better looking in my opinion

iLLGT2 · 28 November 2012, 02:29 PM

New one, love the size and bracelet much more... Both are beauties though

Palmasea · 28 November 2012, 02:54 PM

landroverking · 28 November 2012, 09:45 PM

Bluesy for me. Don't care for the smurf.

travisb · 28 November 2012, 10:57 PM

I'm a big fan of the new.
Many prefer the older dial color but I wouldn't change anything about the TT SubC.
