41mm bluesy TT sub picts

Have always been resistant to TT pieces but this one works really well.

Really like the new case and bracelet dimensions.

I rather like this update, the white text looks better to me than it does in gold.

I have the white and have seen the 11 in person. Honestly in person it is a flip of the coin in my opinion. Both look great. I think the 11 is better for larger wrists as well. But I love my 12!

The white lettering really changes the look of the dial. Big fan of gilt text in general so that will never go out of style. The new white lettering makes the piece look more crisp and casual to my eye. Both options look great.

One of my high school friends in 88 had a TT sub and I've never wanted one until this new model dropped. Really happy with it in person.

Jrell, your shots are really sharp also. I like the Bluesy so much, I have to talk myself into wearing some of the others now.

Thanks! Totally get it. Just not the same feeling with other watches on.

its amazing how much good lighting and an iPhone 11pro camera can make even the most modest of photo skills look good. BUT I do appreciate the compliment.

Best thing for a watch photo is early morning or late evening lighting. The softer light makes for a better photo.

Some awesome pictures of a gorgeous watch, I am getting to like this TT Sub, just have difficulty accepting the look on my wrist, a lack of confidence that I can carry off TT watches.

You guys are killing me. The 126613B is quickly approaching “next acquisition” status. These images are too good.

Mine says hello from beautiful St. Thomas.

This reference 126613LB is amazing, the case dimensions and proportions are spot on. It wears more like the 16613 than the 116613 that I both also owned.

Stunning, congratulations.

My favorite watch of this year's new releases. That dial sets it apart from anything else (bar the YG Bluesy). The blue stands out in a sea of black dial Subs, and what a blue this is.

I wasn't even into TT myself, but this piece really got me.

That's a beauty. Congratulations.

I think Rolex really nailed it with the 12 series TT Blusey.

I’ve been wondering about this and figured I’d ask in this thread...


Is the color of the dial identical on the new 41mm as it was on the 40mm?

Same question for the bezel. Anyone know??
