Bluesy owners! Is this watch too flashy to wear as your only watch?

Would love to hear your thoughts!

holdingon · 25 November 2020, 10:37 AM

depends on your position at work..if you are the boss who cares if not its a bit flashy IMO especially if you are under 40.

teck21 · 25 November 2020, 10:39 AM

Mine is too flashy for me as a daily given my daily dress.

Still wonderful to have one in the collection though.

Is a Michael Kors too flashy for daily wear? LOL

THC · 25 November 2020, 10:46 AM

NOOO ... no one looks at your watch, period. I have had 2 YG DDs, a bluesy, a Pepsi and most all references.. wear the watch u like and forget the flashy junk.. does not exist

OliverTwist · 25 November 2020, 10:47 AM

No way. Blusey is great for shorts, tee shirts snd flip flops. Ive had several and they are usually the watch i pick when im most casual.

arcampado · 25 November 2020, 10:52 AM

Heck no!!!

robk215k · 25 November 2020, 10:57 AM

I used to have a decent collection and had to unload them all in my divorce. Bluesy was the last one I sold.

Recently back up to par and got to buy my first one back in 5 years. Bluesy was the one I picked to start my rebuild. It’ll be my daily for quite some time now and I love it!

I think its perfect for daily wear. It dresses up and down with ease. Great watch.

sambb · 25 November 2020, 11:04 AM

bluesy is a legend and daily is a GREAT option. Try a everst blue band also!

cvo · 25 November 2020, 11:13 AM

Wear your watch any day everyday.

MrGoat · 25 November 2020, 11:22 AM

I wear mine daily and it has the ability to dress up or down. Never had a single complaint or negative comment. If you like it wear it as often as you want. It’s asinine to me how many on this forum worry about the opinions of others over our purchases.

I daily wore a 16613/blue for the better part of 20 years

WestCoastS · 25 November 2020, 11:41 AM

I wear mine in all types of situations and clothing.

Boaters · 25 November 2020, 11:58 AM

Hell No ..

faz · 25 November 2020, 12:13 PM

9+ years, wore my one and only 5 digit bluesy, GADA.

In all the time, only two occasions someone noticed it and made a comment about it. One was at a party, where you want to be flashy and such... complement from a very nice looking lady with taste (she was the fashion manager of a big store chain), and another time on a white water rafting trip, from the young man who was renting the boats to us.

I agree that the Bluesy can be worn daily and goes well with any outfit. However, wearing to work daily can depend on the corporate culture of your company.

I am in charge of Asia for a large global company. It is a Scandinavian company and they stress humility, equality, etc, etc. As an American, I really do not agree with the company culture 100%. But they are the employer and I follow/respect it. So in my case...I do not wear flashy watches to work despite being the most senior guy in the region. My global colleagues are the same.

I have a 116613 along with many others. But I wear a Speedmaster or 14060m as my "work" watches. These really draw no attention and fit my company's work culture.

I've been thinking about picking up a Bluesy and going with the blue band as a sort of sporty look compared to the TT band.

BOXMAN76 · 25 November 2020, 12:55 PM

Hell no... I’d rock that ��

sgwatchguy · 25 November 2020, 12:56 PM

Yes it was for me. Too flashy at any time, and I only wore it one time to work. Since sold.

blue lion · 25 November 2020, 01:11 PM

My favorite watch that I own.
I wear what I want when I want.
No one else cares or matters.

garyk · 25 November 2020, 01:18 PM

I get more comments about my TT Bluesy than any of my other watches including PM Daytona. I am definitely self conscious about it now, keep it tucked up under my sleeve now that the weather is colder...

Screwly · 25 November 2020, 01:18 PM

I keep reaching for my bluesy more and more everyday...

garyk · 25 November 2020, 01:23 PM

It can be used for daily but yes it’s a bit flashy...especially when the sunlight catches it lol...

Honestly, no. I have a number of expensive watches. I know of a few people in our organization who are Rolex owners and nobody even cares. It was of some interest when I purchased my first Rolex since nobody in my dept. of 6 had one but years later nobody even mentions it anymore.

ChugachEagle · 25 November 2020, 01:56 PM

Yes. I actually traded mine in for the YG 41mm sub. After a short honeymoon I couldn’t wear my bluesy. Wasn’t what I was looking for.

Ditto. Everyone noticed mine. To a fault. Hard to explain. I feel more comfortable wearing the PM version than the TT.

yoniman · 25 November 2020, 02:04 PM

Ah..could be but I don't care what others think.
I wear mine everyday.

It's all about health, happiness & family. The rest are just necessary inconveniences we have to deal with.

TswaneNguni · 25 November 2020, 02:05 PM

The Blue TT Sub provides the most flash for the money in Rolex world .
Most complimented on, in my whole collection .
It is in my opinion an iconic reference since 1988 .
16613 Blue and 116613LB .

Atone · 25 November 2020, 02:13 PM

I can’t pull this watch off with my tattoos, just too busy. It’s a stunner and a great daily wear piece.
