My Z-Blue glints, twinkles and attracts more attention than my Blusey.

If it goes with you it will look good on you. And if you think it looks good on you, then it will. If you feel unbalanced or awkward wearing it, it will never look right on you.

I had my (slight) donuts but I had to try it. I won't be selling mine.

Appreciate if anyone can share the pics of Bluesy on straps. Think it looks great on them :)

The bluesy is the Rolex reference that got me started with the brand, and I’ve owned 3 of them. Been hot and cold over the years but keep coming back to it, and now that I think about it I realize why. As an only watch it can be a bit too flashy sometimes, but in a collection it’s great and a treat to wear. My First one didn’t have gold through the clasp, which bugged me so I sold it. The second I don’t think had solid links, and I wasn’t wearing it much and foolishly sold it again. Third and current is perfect and here to stay.

The sunburst dial is remarkable. Sometimes it looks black, but when the sun or a bright light gets on it, it starts to play. Not sure how they manage the sunburst effect, but it is like no other dial I have seen.

I don't like it I love it - more importantly, how do you feel about it?? Compared to perceptions going in

I love it, much more than the GMT II LN which I had. No offense to any GMT LN owners, it’s more dressy and fun. The sun burst dial really pops outdoors.

My daily is my BLRO, this will be my dress watch.

One Warning... Be very careful while you are driving! The dial can be mesmerizing! KEEP YOUR EYES ON ROAD!

IMHO its the best looking Submariner. I love mine and at the moment its the only Rolex I own. Although I have owned others at different times and probably will again. Right now its suits my needs to a "T".

Wonderful, wear it in good health. I added a bluesy two weeks ago, so far I've enjoyed wearing it way more than the anticipation of buying it.

I love my bluesy with Flat Blue dial, the dial matches the bezel colour perfectly

I think the sunburst looks better on the YG Sub ceramic

Just my opinion

Easily the most recognizable Rolex model by a country mile.

The word iconic comes to my mind. And it was my first Rolex.

I'm warming up to it. Thinking of trading a piece for the Bluesy but maybe I should wait until BaselWorld 2020, who knows some cool suprises might be on the menu, like a Bluesy SD43, or a redesigned Sub.

IMO this model is the most beautiful watch Rolex ever made. The steel, blue and yellow gold is just the right combination of wow factor. (Additionally I always liked it because it has my High School colors of Blue and Gold. Go Olmsted Falls Bulldogs!)

Wore my year 2000 until 2016 when it was put aside because I opted to buy more watch models and enjoy rotating them around.

You say that, but then I look at your RG DD with the green dial.. And I get jealous lol. I tried one on last time I was at an AD, and I loved it. Might have to pull the trigger on one.

Great watch. I used mine a good bit at the beach and scratched the gold on the bracelet a bit. The blue really pops against the gold. Go for it.
