Hi

I think that anyone who wears a TT or a YG Rolex must be a very self confident person who does not give a damn what other people think of them. That can be a weakness and a strength.

I confess to being a shy and rather dull creature and I like to blend in the background. For instance, I have a 16520 SS Daytona which I rarely wear because I feel it could attract attention.

If I was gifted say a YG SkyDweller, I would never ever wear it, however, I am seriously considering buying a new SS model.

Regards

Mick

That's derragatory to all, the person wearing it and the salesman providing for a family as well.

This particular salesman was obviously doing better than just providing for a family - he had a gold/steel Rolex on. It was hyper-blingy, you could see it from twenty paces.

You see this so much here that it is almost a running joke.

I'd call it rational. I bought the car.

HogwldFLTR · 3 April 2017, 08:23 AM

I'm considering upgrading to two tone for the SkyD. I love TT Rolexes!!!

TakeYourTime · 3 April 2017, 10:20 AM

Def. classy but it depends how you feel about the flash. Yellow gold is outstanding and some like the attention, some not. I prefer white gold over yellow but the blue TT sub is very tempting :)

Aint that the truth. I owned 11613 Silver Dial Certi. Loved every minute of it. Flipped for a DayDate. If I ever went a coloured sub again it would be a 16808.

Tomas Eriksson · 30 May 2017, 05:06 AM

Classy

So true!

Old Geezer · 30 May 2017, 05:18 AM

IMO it's Classy.........disclaimer........I have owned a TT 5 digit sub and traded for a 6 digit TT GMTc which I wear often.

amh · 30 May 2017, 05:19 AM

One of the very best combos IMO

Beaten only by the Black TT GMT

Awesome piece

(Trashy or classy?? who really cares?? I certainly don't- think or say what you want

)

OcdRob · 30 May 2017, 05:47 AM

I dont own a tt sub or any tt watch but I certainly like them. The bluesy is on my short list of future watches.

KingRichard · 30 May 2017, 05:57 AM

It's very classy. I nice blend of rugged and elegant. Although that isn't to say that a SS model is not elegant.

Agree. Too flashy for my liking

Karlig · 30 May 2017, 07:39 AM

Never a fan of 2 tone DJ, subs or
Gmt's. Like em all in full satainelss or YG, white gold.
The 2 tone rose gold Yachtmasters are pretty cool though.

Director EDTF · 30 May 2017, 07:59 AM

They can't be that out of fashion Tudor just released the Two tone Black Bay!

Amex4711 · 30 May 2017, 08:04 AM

Classy

daveo5 · 30 May 2017, 09:37 AM

For a number of years the tu-tone sub, blue dial, was 'the' Rolex to own and wear. Personally I wear my WG D-D.

locutus49 · 30 May 2017, 09:58 AM

The 80's are coming back. Everything comes back eventually, and now it is TT Rolexes. I shoulda kept my TT Datejust.

Andad · 30 May 2017, 10:08 AM

I like TT's so much I added another one.

1988 OQ.

ct.matt · 30 May 2017, 11:31 AM

Heavily depends on who's wearing it.

Nice, the TT Champagne DJ41 also caught my eye.

Jim addy · 30 May 2017, 12:43 PM

never understood this watch.

It's a sports watch that's trying to be dressy
Or
It's a dress watch that's trying to be sporty.

Or it could just be a watch.

With very interesting hybrid engineering.

incontrol · 30 May 2017, 12:59 PM

It is certainly not trashy! I wear mine with shorts, jeans and to work.

It is not classy either, it is very classy!
