If you need to go all gold consider a day date and keep the bluesy. That is what I did and no regrets. The bluesy is an iconic piece, more so than a solid gold sub IMO. Add a day date and you have it all.

Actually, that's my bigger dilemma. I keep going back and forth between the all gold sub and the YG daydate with black dial. I love them both. The sports models work well on my wrist though. Hence my love for the 116618LB. I could buy either one now but I thought the 116613LB would be a good warmup to it. And I really like the TT look also.

New. And Blue.

Congrats!!! Why not enjoy this beauty now and for a few months/years before discussing the next one?

I for one am starting to warm up to the idea of a PM sports watch, but up until a few months ago I didn't even like them at all.

Enjoy your piece in good health

Looks great! I actually like the TT Blusey more than the PM Sub. Regardless of cost, I just think it's a better looking watch. For me the Pm yellow gold sub is too flashy.

Thanks. And don't worry, I'll definitely be enjoying this one. I can't stop wrist checking myself. The beauty of the bluesy is undeniable!

Find myself looking at mine quite a bit. Between the 904, Rolesor and 2 different blues(bezel and dial) it's killer.
