This is my first real luxury watch...previous was a nice Movado. I've had 5 or 6 people stop me to see the Rolex in only a week or so.
Hey Rob, I got it last November and I have been very happy with it. As a matter a fact it is the only watch in my collection that gets compliments.

Almost "Ditto" for me...I got the TTblkSub (butthe 16613 model) last fall as my 1st Rolex and I plan on adding a TTblueSub (16613) this spring as my 2nd.

By the way....Great pics of your black ceramic TT sub! Keep enjoying!!

My next watch! Congrats!

PS I've posted it before but I think it's worth pointing out - have you guys noticed the lettering on the new TT black Sub is in white, while on the blue Sub it's in gold? I wonder why?

Love the watch...making this purchase is a wonderful thing!
Nice buy! Welcome to the forum

I have noticed that the new tt black is in white vs the old (16613) was gold. I do like the White on black. Nobody mentioned that in any of the reviews regarding changes from 16613 to 116613. Nice surprise!

On the blue, for some reason though, the gold DOES seem to go better.

Congratulations on a great watch!

My husband has the older TT black face watch, and it looks great. The ceramic one looks fantastic, too.

Yes I agree - white lettering matches the black/gold better, while gold lettering goes well with the blue/gold.
