SS, the TT is beautiful, but a little too glitzy for day to day use.

I had a 16613, but sold it years back:



Prefer my 16610 or 14060 these days.

You like the TT Blue

I prefer the Sub in SS but could definately see a TT or all gold in my future collection.

Get the WG SubC and you've got all your bases covered. A little gold with steel appearance.

TT. There are other SS watches I like more, but the Sub is the best TT I've seen.

The Stainless Steel is the classic quintessential go anywhere do anything watch (tool or not) for me, but the bluesy (16613 I think) is stunningly beautiful that just exudes class and style in a rugged way.

For every day use, I'd go SS. The bluesy or two tone, is really an attention getter in my book and will definitely get noticed a bit more than the SS. If you don't mind the attention, go for the two tone. It's a gorgeous piece.

Either way you can't go wrong. Go with what puts a smile on YOUR face and you've made the right decision for you.

Cheers!
