Since you already have a sub and it seems you have a preference for blue, go for a D-Blue

How about a colourful WG Sub 116619LB ?

From your original three options I think the Milgauss fits in. You have a Sub already. The Milgauss is a substantial different piece and can be had for a very decent price.

Based on your collection, and your desire for a smooth bezel with PCL... Milgauss Blue is a perfect fit.

I'm not a big fan of TT or YG for myself, so I say go for the Milgauss.

I'd go with the bluesy. I think it would be a great casual watch with a pop of color.

You've got some really nice watches man, props. TT blue for me, not a Millie fan honestly.

Thanks all for the input - much appreciated. The Milgauss is looking good, need to compare the blue vs black dial as I remember thinking the blue was very light and much prefer the blue on the tt sub.

How about current Exp II in either white or black.

Might be too casual for you though. Good luck and post pic of your choice. Of the ones you've shown I prefer the TT.

Blue stick DJII would be my call. There's no color in your collection and that would stand out a lot and provide you with the PCLs and smooth bezel you seek. Another choice might be the new OPs in which ever color you like. Frankly, though, if you have to ask then I think you aren't ready to buy. Buy when you know and can't help yourself; don't let the cash burn a hole in your pocket.

Thanks - looking for a colourful dial so does not work for me as it is also lacking polished bezel and links.

Thanks - good suggestions there and I will definitely consider them. I am in no rush and am enjoying taking my time hunting around.

The Milgauss would not even be on MY list. That two tone sub is gorgeous but indeed a bit too flashy. Since you wish to add some color, why not a steel DJ2 or may be a blue yachtmaster? Just offering some alternatives.

This datejust 2 could be the answer as many have mentioned. Not sure how the 41mm case will wear.

Good suggestion bud not really interested in a WG piece at the moment. My Reverso Duo face covers the GMT complication.
