My TT Bluesy Sub gets the most by far--much more so than my YG Daytona with champagne PN dial or my TT GMT Master II with champagne dial and diamond and ruby markers. My fav of the 3 is the Daytona but the outside world loves loves loves the TT Bluesy Sub.

My SS/Platinum Yacht-Master gets some under the radar love which I've learned to embrace.
I never seeked attention when getting my Rolex, however, several people of both sexes have compliemented on my watch and asked what kind it was with sincere interest, which is the part I like. By not knowing it's a Rolex, they aren't complimenting the brand or its dollar value, they are compimenting how the watch looks ... and I have to agree with them, it's a gorgeous watch. |

Wearing a Rolex is like driving a BMW 3 Series. Luxury for the masses. You want compliments, look elsewhere.

I agree with the two tone blue dial Sub/Daytona sentiment. Most non-WIS people I've met tend to be drawn towards two tone and also anything with sub dials.

I think anything with yellow gold will get comments the most. You can tell from quite some distance the difference between real and fake gold.

What is it about the TT bluesy that gets so much attention especially from your ordinary person not really into watches. I can only think that maybe that's the model most identify with Rolex in my opinion.
I do own a bluesy and recently purchased a rose gold Daytona on a whim. I wore the Daytona for a few weeks and received no comments. Not that I care. Eventually I sold the Daytona. Really wasn't working for me. Seemed a bit small. Anyways, slapped on the TT bluesy and 2 people commented the next day. I find it strange. I would never comment on a TT but I have commented on YG rolexes in the wild. Just my 2 cents Cheers!

2) There is no denying that Rolex is a luxury brand, and probably the largest and most recognized luxury watch brand. Nothing wrong with that. 3) just because you can find and buy a more luxurious watch than Rolex, doesn't mean an owner of a Rolex won't get compliments. |
