She's a beaut as well. I'd like to make that my next watch. Of course by the time I can buy that one, Rolex will have come out with a new GMT model

. Maybe I can sweet talk the wife...

That baby has gotten so futuristic and ahead of most of the current models, it can't get any better.

The TT version just sings out to me......in so many languages too!!

I had a chance to buy the TT GMT IIc @ Christmas for around $5000 but I chickened out

. It was a pretty good deal but I was getting ready to leave for Afghan. I thought, buy this watch now and I can't wear it for another 15 months. True torture. Maybe another deal like that will come along again.

Just $5k? Was that for a brand new one? If so, it was just too good to pass up. What an amazing price!!

Hey Guys
I have just bought my new Rolex ! The 16613 Dial is stunning i have yet to come across another watch that looks as good as the 16613. The combination of YG and SS and the Blue is exquisite......

well, how about the 16618?

BmwA5H · 3 June 2008, 02:14 AM

The Rolex 16618 Is stunning too however I like the even look of the gold and seeing as I am only young wearing at FULL gold watch at my age would have me killed when out shopping !
Still a lovely watch though

Bassplayer · 3 June 2008, 08:17 AM

Great review - I picked mine up a few days ago and can't look at it without a smile...

After reading your review, and actually seeing one in person at an AD, I've moved this one to the top of my list (right next to the SS Daytona). To remind me of how fantastic the blue tones are, I opened the review on my iPhone and captured the lead photo & made it my iPhone wallpaper. I will most likely acquire a new TT Blue Sub by year's end. Thanks for a great review and photos.

golfball123 · 23 September 2008, 12:02 PM

good review.... i luv my tt sub

Boopie · 23 September 2008, 02:54 PM

Great review. I've always loved the blue Sub. Two different friends of ours have the blue Sub, so I admired it well before I got my YM.

I was wondering...any black TT Sub partisans out there?

zidaneong · 2 October 2008, 08:06 PM

Hihi, thanks JJ for your recomendation, i bought the TT Blue Sub. It is so beautiful compared to my TT Datejust.

leewithjld · 4 October 2008, 09:02 AM

I'm purchasing a mint 2003 "Y" SS/18k Blue Sub. Anything I should know? I'm a 25 year Oyster Perputual man

Thanks.

Some Pair · 4 October 2008, 10:07 AM

I must say that when I take out my "Bluesy", I get as warm and fuzzy a feeling as rolling one of my Hot Rods out of the garage...... or catching an unexpected smile from the wife....
real cool!

PeterT · 10 October 2008, 05:01 AM

I just ordered a Blue TT Sub on Wednesday and I feel very contented!!
Excellent photos by the way!

sonnycarlos · 22 October 2008, 04:46 PM

hi there i've been planning to buy a tt black dial sub for a while because they look really masculine but when i came across a blue dial tt sub at queen victoria building two weeks ago i couldn't resist it i went back to the shop the following day and made a deposit for the watch to put it aside for me as they were putting the price up because of the aussie dollar value coming down against the us dollar.i was lucky the owner of the shop agreed. so i'm gonna collect it next week!!! if you're in sydney you can visit the shop at QVB L.G. HUMPHRIES they got plenty of other rolex too.

sonnycarlos · 22 October 2008, 04:48 PM

i forgot to mention it is a m-series it has the serial no. engraved inside which i really like coz if anything happens to it i can easily identify it.

gone-rolex-mad · 22 October 2008, 04:55 PM

Great review of the iconic bluesy, loved the pics too.

Congrats, Danz.......that would be around mid-2003!!!

And because it's such a late Y-series, I'm pretty sure the case has come WITHOUT lug-holes!! Correct?

Cheers - JJ
