TT Blue Sub 116613LB

As a continuation of my incoming thread, i would like to share some photos of my TT Blue Sub, 116613LB. Some are duplicate and others are new. These are photos taken using samsung galaxy note and no editing done therefore the quality of these photos are no where near the TRF standard so please bear with me .

I personally find that the Tone of blue on this sub is closer to the pre ceramic sub. It has a deeper Blue, consistent yet changes easily under different angles.


Super Case which is still a little square but my focus is always on the blue gold combination therefore eliminates the squarish issue for myself


The caseback is almost flushed therefore the watch sits nicely on the wrist and solid gold links give the watch its substantial weight.


The well machined bezel fuses with the ceramic insert and they sit in harmony with the crystal displaying the magnificent dial with exquiste gold imprints.


The ceramic insert's Blue/Gold combi rocks my boat...


The Rich Blue showing, from this angle its like a totally different watch altogether


Another shot showing its charm

This shot is more of the new blue mimicking the old royal blue. Almost there but still a little difference.


Wears nicely on the wrists.


See, three wristshots, three shades of blue.


Lume is Blue, which is the same as Subc


Love them all, regardless of size... 36<40<44


Thats all for now, hope you have enjoyed this as much as i did.

Me three! The changing blue is quite a draw. The upgrades, like the Guidelock clasp, make all the difference to me. The large maxi-dial plots are great for aging eyes!

Congrats!

Gorgeous, sexy pictures. You captured the blue at its best. If I didn't already have one, I'd be perusing the for sale section right now.

Great pics. I've been obsessing over my recent purchase about four weeks ago, of a bluesy. I can't seem to take my eyes off of it, which makes driving difficult. Anyway, I seem to think the dial is darker than when I first got it.

Somebody, please, tell me I'm crazy. BTW, the wife already does.

Pictures to follow.
