Greetings from Perth, Australia
Hi Everyone, firstly congratulations on an awesome forum, it's super informative and seems super friendly too
On a recent trip to Hong Kong (Jan 2010), I bought 2 new Rolex TT Subs, 16613 and the ceramic 116613. I settled for the 16613 and my brother got the BIGGER and HEAVIER 116613. Personally I prefer the 16613 as it fits my wrist better and also the blue face and besel is more stunning than the ceramic version, imo. Eitherway, we're both as Happy as Larry!!! Throughly enjoyed JJ's and Lovesrolexes123's reviews on the TT subs and the other techincal info! Edit: Pics to come :) Regards Des |

Welcome to TRF, Des. Glad you enjoyed my review.............I too prefer the older TT Blue Sub 16613. That shade of Cobalt Blue just cannot be replicated.
