I'd get the 116610 and it should be slightly more NIB vs used 16613.

The TT and solid gold Subs are my favorite Rolex, however I love the new ceramic with all the upgrades more. My choice between your two options would be the new SubC. Plus BNIB is sure nice being the first and maybe last owner!

Sub-C just might be the most overall perfect Rolex watch.

I went 16613.
Still wrestling with the new case. Am thinking about 116613, however. I already have other black dial Rolex watches and the blue is very nice for a change.
