I am going back on forth on several sport models. I really like the glidelock clasp feature on the Subc. I also like the weight and look of the two tone models.

I notice that the 116613LN is not as popular as other subs. I would appreciate your thoughts on this watch. Pictures from owners are welcomed.

Thank you.

SaddleSC · 12 April 2012, 03:47 AM

I love the 116613. I think it is the perfect watch for a small collection because it so darn versatile. You can easily dress it up or wear it with shorts and a T-Shirt. I have two TT Subs and love to wear them. I would only offer the following advice. Consider trying on the the LB (Blue Dial) before you make you final decision. I find that it adds a little bit of uniqueness to the watch. The blue dial also uses a beautiful gold text on the dial that I prefer (as opposed to the white dial text on the LN version)...

JUSTROLEXES · 12 April 2012, 04:05 AM

116613 is just the perfect watch IMO...
I like all the udates that were done to the watch

It's just a Beauty

TSW · 12 April 2012, 05:03 AM

A classic Sub, Nothing wrong with it!

franzy · 12 April 2012, 07:36 AM

Thanks for the feedback. I think I need to get back to an AD and do some more looking just to confirm.

floater156 · 12 April 2012, 07:38 AM

Try them both on with dress and casual clothes. What AD do you prefer to go check out items? I chose a TT because my wedding band is YG and I wanted them to match! :P

iLLGT2 · 12 April 2012, 07:40 AM

TT blue sub c is just sooooo gorgeous!

Really want one, just keep on thinking i'll get bored of the TT fast, never had one before.

OYSTERMANN · 12 April 2012, 07:49 AM

Tom, they're both great looking Subs. Looks like a trip to your AD! The Blue is a beautiful Sub, though. I know some prefer the pre-ceramic TT Blue Sub, but either way, the combination of Steel, Gold and Blue is a winning formula.

I wouldn't let popularity come into the decision unless you plan to sell it in the near future. Long-term owners should get what they love. And who knows what will be popular long-term?

I'm not that smart - if I was, then I would have a dozen Paul Newmans in the vault.

FNFZ4 · 12 April 2012, 08:28 AM

its an awesome watch what can I say. My Brother had the 16613 and it was great looking watch. He sold it to upgrade.

JasoninDenver · 12 April 2012, 08:29 AM

I have generally disliked two tone watches...

Until that one came out.

It is a winner on all counts.

mjclark32 · 12 April 2012, 08:46 AM

It is a beautiful piece IMO

gwozhog · 12 April 2012, 09:06 AM

If we are talking about the new TT Black subc it is as good as it gets. I own it and have yet to see another one in the wild. I see blue ones all the time. The new blue to me looks flat and toyish. The black is deep and vibrant and goes with everything. This forum is filled with biased SS sub owners who hate seeing black in TT. Beware though that the Plc's do scratch easily though.

snaggle · 12 April 2012, 09:45 AM

the 116613LN is definitely one of my favourite watches ever.

Love the black dial!! (Love the blue one too)

I would go for it! I am considering myself to trade my SS subC + cash for it!

dmitrii_ · 12 April 2012, 09:48 AM

go for it! got one for my dad (blue dial) and he adores it!

nch209 · 12 April 2012, 04:22 PM

A very fine choice. I own the blue, and it it's a heck of a watch with all of the modern updates. The only flaw I've encountered is an itch to jump up to the solid gold model!!!!

RRGHOST1 · 12 April 2012, 07:06 PM

I have the new 116613LB,and think the blue is great,but the black is nice too.

travisb · 12 April 2012, 07:14 PM

Great looking watch!

I went to the zale's in Woodfield Mall. They are not that knowledgeable, but did have a decent selection. I only looked for 10 minutes.

I was actually late for our new house closing. My wife was less than thrilled when she found out what I was doing.

Thanks again for the comments and opinions.

85253 · 13 April 2012, 12:16 PM

It looks great but I prefer the GMT for the -13LN

My vote for the the 116613 LB.

MortgageGuy · 13 April 2012, 03:04 PM

Love them both and it is a tough decision. I too like the added weight to the TT over the SS but I would try them both a few more times and see what you think... You dont want to make a costly mistake and trust me I have made plenty of those.. In the last month even

byeedo · 13 April 2012, 03:07 PM

Did your wife forgive you? I love the TT with Blue dial personally but the Black is sharp too!
