What's an alternative band for a TT 16613 sub ? ( POST YOUR PICS)

I thinking of getting a different band bc I don't want to scratch up my TT from daily activates ?! Please post pics if you have them !!!!!

I say just wear it as is and have it polished at regular service intervals (every 5-7 years). Scratches will come but they give the watch character. I've seen a few people but NATOs on their Blusey and it looks okay but not nearly as nice as the bracelet.

two options, alligator, and a NATO that works...




Rubber B works as well but I don't have one

Scratches build character. Wear it the way it was meant to be and enjoy.

Just wear it as is! I have worn my 16613 Bluesy everywhere doing everything for almost 20 years now. The bracelet will come back refinished as new at service time every 5-8 years or so. These things are made to be worn not babied!

Brings up a question - Anyone know when Rolex went to the TT clasp?

My serti sub is a P8xxxxx with a DE1 (7/01) bracelet code has the TT clasp. Not for everyone, but I like it
