If you could only have one...
Between the 116610LN SS and the 116613LN TT, which would you choose and why?

116610LN SS, because a simple stainless steel watch goes better with everything in my opinion.

I agree with the above in regards to the SS, but there's just something about a TT Submariner whether new or old. Yes it's flashy, eye catching and to some gaudy but a 16613 by right is simply beautiful, a true work of art. not to say that the 16610 is inferior, it is not-just less noticeable. IMO to a concerning eye a Rolex is a Rolex, personally it doesn't matter if it has gold or not, your watch will be noticed regardless. The TT can be worn dressed up or down. I have both watches, I hardly wear my 16610. Maybe I like the attention

TT for me, I'm a yellow gold man so I'm somewhat biased but I think it's just flashy enough when needed while it remains subtle, it's a great mix of colors for an everyday watch but it looks a bit dressier than a regular SS watch in my opinion!

Another SS vote. But only because you're limiting to one!

If your only watch SS. If your keeping DSSD get the TT. Not enough difference in the two.

SS gets my vote. Steel has all the qualities, its light, not too flshy, goes well with anything. And durable.

TT for me. Originally it was a toss up between the DSSD and the 116613LN. I went for the DSSD so the next time around I am going for the TT!! A little bit of a different look.
