2-tone Sub w/Ceramic

Hello all,

I'm new to the Forum and new to being a Rolex owner. After much research I just purchased a 2-tone black Sub w/the Ceramic Bezel. I was close to buying the older model but fell in love with the new one.

Love the watch...making this purchase is a wonderful thing!

I do like it a lot, Dalip, but the black/gold combo is a bit harsh on me....unfortunately

The TT black Sub is a great looking watch - I personally prefer it to the blue. You get the beefiness of the maxi case, the engineering genius of the Glidelock, and the ruggedness you'd expect from a Sub. What's not to like?

Funny you should ask. I certainly won't be able to swing it anytime soon since I doubled my budget for THIS one already, but I do like the 2-tone sub (old version) in blue. I'd like to pick up a used one sometime.

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!!

Thanks for the nice greetings.

When shopping I found that I really liked the new BLACK vs the new BLUE as well. It's a very fine looking piece. I'll probably wear it every day for 6 months!

Here are some shots of the watch.
