It is truly a beautiful watch and since I’m newish to Rolex I consider it to be the Sub I’m most familiar with seeing in ads. I know its odd but I can’t seem to think I could wear it for the bling factor, man it pops. BUT I do think it looks great in the display and on others. Congrats and enjoy.

What an amazing timepiece! I fell in love with a TT Submariner back in 2003 when it had the black face. But this blue is out of hand gorgeous.

Very nice watch you got, wear it in perfect health.

Whoa whoa whoa......you can be a WIS and collector without buying used or vintage. Don’t let any watch snobs tell you different. For me, as an item becomes more personal, the more I want it new. A house? Used. Car? Preloved. Clothes? New. A watch? New(ish). Some people really get off on the story aspect of vintage pieces, which I understand, but personally for something i plan to leave to MY kids and grandkids, I only want it to start with me and have MY story attached to it.......

Some TT Rolex models are simply yeuch. But yours, the TT Blue Sub is one of the best looking watches in the Rolex line up.
Congrats.

I thought that there is no way I can get it by just walking in and buying but seems all stars were aligned so here it is! Nothing beats the original experience, which is walk in and buy what you want!!
