I thought it was a TT Bluesy too but now that I know it is YG, I would strongly consider it. You will need probably want another watch that is SS. Maybe an Explorer I 39mm would be nice and not too pricey.

I would go with the solid 18k but I prefer the size and PM content of the Sub. However I really prefer the ceramic version more than the predecessor.

I will be making a decision today.
I do love the gold but it would be my one and only and I do consider what it would be like wearing it daily.
My dweller is a slam dunk. Rough tough can't get enough - dives well, works well and looks great. I know the sub will too be in a different way

The sub looks great. I would be tempted and probably do the deal. If you need two watches pick up a Sub-C ND down the road.

Let's just say I'd have around 16 into this gold piece. Give or take.

Flipping is part of the maturation process as a collector - I support it

IMHO get the PM and don't look back. My DSSD sits in a drawer and has for a while. It's a graduation present so I'll never get rid of it I just prefer the Subs and Sea Dwellers over it.
