Thanks for the great pics guys! I have a lot to think about, but as we all know, one day we want one, the next day we want another...I wish I could just buy all of them. For now, it looks like the 116613 LB is the most popular, and it was the one I was already leaning towards...

I have a Ceramic Blue TT Smurf and love it. It's definitely more casual looking than pre-ceramic Blue TT watches. In fact, it looks awkward (too casual looking) paired to a suit. The lighter blue color, bright white maxi markers and larger lugs contribute to a brighter, more office casual appearance. The pre-Ceramic TT Blue is more flexible since it looks good with a suit or a casual shirt/jeans.
I feel the non-ceramic version sunburst dials are stunning. I didn't swap my TTC for a new sunburst C since the sunburst effect is muted compared to the non C version. The larger maxi markers hide/mute the sunburst and the color isn't as rich dark blue. |

116613LB is probably my favorite TT with the 116713 a VERY close second.

Seeing these reminds how cool TT's are, I know there is a group on the forum that think they look a bit 80's but I do think Rolex pulls it off better than others. Looking at a TT Nautilus today I did not think it looked as effective (despite being a lovely watch).
Attached is my 116523, but depending on what you have those Subs look nice and sharp as well. be aware the TT does tend to dress up not down the watch, I do see my Daytona as more of a dress watch and it does generate more comments as a result than a SS watch.

I love my 116613 LB. New Sunburst Blue Sub for those not familiar with model numbers. I also love the TT GMT Master IIc. Currently black dial is the only option. If they make a ceramic root beer in TT, Yikes! My savings will get blown up!
