I love this thing!!! :dude:

I've owned a lot of Rolex's throughout my life and honestly not much compares to this beauty.

My very first love was the TT Bluesy. It was the watch that first attracted me to Rolex and now I'm finally an owner of this stunner. Love it!

I've owned over 30 Rolex over the years , I still own 20 and the Bluesy was one of my more recent purchases.

I can remember one of my managers wearing one years ago and you couldnt help but notice it pop as soon as he walked in the room with it on his wrist.
I spent the next 12 years collecting the more ' Hot ' or in demand steel models and a few solid gold versions including the John Mayer green Daytona.

I have pretty much owned every hot model modern Rolex over the last ten years and In my mind the Bluesy is still the best looking watch I own

Agree

I am with you, this was my first, 1999, saw it on a dudes wrist in a Range Rover while on my pushy a few years earlier said that's what I need. Saved and bingo.

My eyes must be deceiving me but that looks full YG. Either way, it's a beauty

Yeah server room. I'm a bit of a technology geek and very lucky that I get paid handsomely to play with toys.

It is full gold. LOL

I said that I started loving Rolex and what initially attracted me was the TT. Now, I've upgraded to the full gold nothing beats it

Without a doubt one of the top Rolex in my mind and it's so far escaped me. Hopefully it will come to fruition one of these days.

I own other pieces far harder to get and more expensive, but find myself loving this piece a bit more than the rest.

I can’t explain it but this is probably competing for my favorite watch spot. It’s beautiful. Enjoy it.

You’re right the gold text is absolutely key on this particular reference.

Thankyou all!!! Lovely pictures guys as well.

I'm absolutely smitten with this piece. Was looking for one that was MINT or BNIB with the gold text but man these are getting harder to come by.

I’m right there with you OP. It was the first watch that attracted me to the brand over 10 years ago and it’s still the favorite of my collection
