Are there any options or just anything?

This isn't even close. For an everyday watch, you really don't want anything as flashy as a blue Sub IMO (unless of course, you're a flashy guy by nature) YMMV

roadie1 · 15 May 2017, 06:13 AM

Tough call as I have both. I do find myself wearing my SD more often though.

TOlsen · 15 May 2017, 06:19 AM

SD4K - more discreet without the YG and hence more versalite

Awesome.
I come here to learn about watches as well as free psycho analysis.

Diagnosis:
I wear mine daily, therefore I am a flashy guy.

Where do I pay so I can submit the bill to my insurance?

THC · 15 May 2017, 06:47 AM

Sub, by a mile

warrior · 15 May 2017, 07:04 AM

Touch a nerve? LOL. My opinion stands ; it's a flashy watch. Doesn't mean that you can't like it and wear it. You can pay wherever you want.

So your psycho analysis stands.
Because you think it's a flashy watch, i am therefore a flashy guy.
Your own words:

A person you know absolutely nothing about yet can be so descriptive just solely based on a watch?

Sweet.
I'll let my wife know.
Thanks.

I'm not going to comment on the diagnosis, but if it's "free psycho analysis" as you say, why would you need to pay and submit a bill??

Thanks for accentuating the intentional sarcasm.
It's such a great analysis I feel compelled to pay.
It would otherwise feel as thievery.

Cru Jones · 15 May 2017, 07:21 AM

Between these two, the LB would give me many more smiles, so that one. No question.

If I'm a flashy guy, I would wear flashy things. If I'm not a flashy guy, I don't wear flashy things. And I think the bluesy is flashy. That's really how I am and how I think many people are. Is flashy perjorative? Seems to me you think so.

IF you don't work that way ( or some other TRFers don't), fine! Your persuasive sarcasm is noted.

So if you like brushed SS only watches, I can arrive at the conclusion that since I think they are dull, then you are a dull guy. Right?
Not that I believe that but certainly if one follows your logic, this is the only possible conclusion.

As to your "perjorative" question, per Meriam Webster:
Flashy
ostentatious or showy often beyond the bounds of good taste; especially : marked by gaudy brightness

Not very friendly.
I don't have an issue with your personal thought it is flashy. It's your opinion. It's your taking it to describe anyone wearing it as well that you crossed the line.

droptopman · 15 May 2017, 08:21 AM

Your bio says you have an 116613LN. The LB would work nicely with the LN for a TT duo. If you are moving the LN, the LB is also a nice change. I wore an LB as a daily for years, I am often described as "flashy" lol.
Most of my wrist time over the last 6 months is split between the 116613lb and 114060. Both are great and either works in a collection or solo. I would think the SD4k would work as well.
If I had to choose one, it would be the LB.

sea-dweller · 15 May 2017, 09:18 AM

Dude who cares what he thinks, he is prob a drag at a book club meeting. All Rolexs are kinda flashy by nature thou...tbh.

busytimmy · 15 May 2017, 10:22 AM

Neither. Probably would go with the 116610LN instead.

watchwatcher · 15 May 2017, 10:34 AM

There's not many watches I would vote against the bluesy on...and the SDk isn't one of them.

Guess that makes me a flashy guy, too.

Same here, I'd rather a touch of glamour, not exactly flash, that makes me smile than a comparatively dour watch.

Qwerty01 · 15 May 2017, 12:14 PM

SD4K! U can wear it more

Tampashooter · 15 May 2017, 12:28 PM

LOL at the Bluesy flash deniers. I walk down the street in 40K watches, no one says a word. I wear a bluesy, and the questions abound. It may not be the ONLY reason to wear one, but don't even think for one second it isn't flashy.
