Of all Rolex's steel and two-tone models, what model do you think is the most blingy/flashy?

I think its a toss up between the bluesy and the TT daytona with the white face. The gold subdials really sparkle.

Daytonas are the classic choice and some models simply ooze blinginess. But the Bluesy is striking. I'm not a fan of the Bluesy but there is no denying it's "in your face" wrist presence.

As a Speedmaster guy most of the time my preference is for the Daytona, but in a more simple format. SS & ceramic with black bezel, either black or white dial. But that's just me. I'm an anti-bling guy myself, preferring simple understatement.

I don't know about bling, but the bluesy is a very eye catching piece, IMO. If there's one in the display case, my eyes almost always go to it first.

Bluesy has the most "bling" for the buck. They just pop because of the TT and sunburst blue dial.
FYI DavidSW has my classic Bluesy for sale now at a smoking price......

Bluesy!!!

Abdullah71601 · 26 June 2017, 01:38 AM

Woops. Misread the post. Some PM bling.

Abdullah71601 · 26 June 2017, 01:52 AM

Steel bling

sea-dweller · 26 June 2017, 01:52 AM

I'd say the TT Sub, but it's a "classy" type of bling.

The two tone GMT also has a lot of wrist presense. The bezel numbers stand out and add to the two tone.

TT Daytona is the winner

Certainly not any that I have an interest in owning.

NLYogi · 26 June 2017, 02:24 AM

Bluesy! Funny how TT can sometimes be more bling than full gold.

KH8 · 26 June 2017, 02:29 AM

Daytona

Muzz · 26 June 2017, 02:33 AM

I always got more complements on my TT blue Sub than any other piece including PM pieces.

Not sure about bling factor but it is certainly a noticeable piece.

bobby81 · 26 June 2017, 03:26 AM

As an owner of the two Rolexes the Sub 116613LB & the White Dial Daytona 116503 you mentioned I get more interest in the Sub but my own choice is the Daytona I agree with the person that said the Gold Sub Dials really stand out the Two Watches are amazing the only thing that would overshadow them is the full P/M ones

Guilty as charged ....

If you're talking flat out, over the top, taste doesn't matter kind of bling:
