Personally, I don’t think I could pull off the bluesy but I love it.

I’m not particularly a fan of TT or the jubilee, but this works!!! I’d love to see it on a 5 digit setup. Thanks for sharing!!!

Both are awesome. I have the S&G black bay and love it. If for the Rolex sub, would go blue. It’s a blingier watch and the blue adds more character in my view.

Personally, the Datejust actually.

As far as the TT Subs go, the beloved 'Bluesy' is a TRF icon, yet the black TT has a less flash presence..

Both are, to use an old saying, Superlative Chronometers.

Black for the office and blue for the weekend. I chose the black and don’t regret it.

Since you have the PM Sub in Blue it makes more sense in your situation to keep the black dial.

If you didnt have that Blue YG sub - the Bluesy is the one you should keep.

It's got to be the black dial for me in the Rolesor model.

Or the white gold with blue dial.

I was thrown for as loop but now it makes sense .
You made the right choice... Great trio and I would’ve
done the same . Are you gifting the TT Bluesy to the
brother n law ?

I'd take the blue even if the black came with £1,000 cash

Of all the TT Rolex watches the TT Blue Submariner is head and shoulders above the rest.
Just MHO..
