Great pics everyone..v envious !

Could I just ask a newbie question? is the 'bluesy' nickname reserved only for the TT version or is the full gold version also known as a 'bluesy' ?

Apols in advance if that's a dumb question - its just there seems to be more TT versions pictured and wasn't sure if that was just a coincidence or deliberate..

There are TTs and there are YGs - both are some sort of "bluesy". I prefer the full version. Had both.

TT is cool. YG is just better. :)

Nice photos!

Both are very nice piece.

I don't agree the your YG is better than the TT just because yours is 16618, but then of course will be a different story if you upgrade to 116618.

I just order my 116613 from the AD, for me personally, I prefer TT. There is something about combing two metals which is a different favor as well.

Bluesy is only for 16613 & 16618 and upgrade version of them which are 116613 & 116618

I agree with your rebuttal. Aside from the amazing look it gets from the combination of two metals, the TT 116613 can be worn better casually (more versatile) than a YG 116618.

Congrats in advance for your upcoming piece.

TT is more in-your-face than YG and 116618 (6-digit YG) is just too flashy and lacks taste. IMHO.

I've never been a fan of two-tone watches (just purely personal taste obviously), but there's something about that blue ceramic against the two-tone case and bracelet is absolutely stunning.

Since you've owned both, do they sport the same shade of blue for the dial? I guess the purple hint on the 5 digit is patina
Wear it in good health, it's gorgeous!
I completely agree with this! TT for ceramics and all gold for the 5 digits. My next dream setup is a 5 digit all yellow gold sub. Something about the smaller case/lug profile on those tones down the all-gold factor.

Picked up this 5 digit last week. I've never been a tt fan but for this one I made an exception... I love the 5 digit case and aluminum insert.

AD has had one of these(TT) in the case for about a week. Any discount to be had on these at this time as it doesn’t appear to be in as much demand as the other SS models? I’ve been thinking to go Grey for this watch.
