I have tried to stay away but ...
As times goes by your taste may change a little, I have always tried to stay away from two tone, but friend of mine called me and said he had an impeccable sub 16613 for sale, for an incredible price. Well after putting the watch on my wrist.. bought it. Not sure if it will be a keeper, but for now i'am in love.

Love love love my TT Bluesy. I had a TT GMT in the early 80s and always regretted selling it so bought the Bluesy in July. So great!

Congratulations, a stunning watch.
Just missed out on one early this year, still looking for a top condition piece.

One of the most beautiful TT from Rolex. This reference is a stunner. I’ve seen it go so amazingly well with suits as well as with jeans and shorts. On men as well as on women.
Can’t take my eyes off when I spot one :-)
Congrats.

On this I tend to agree, just with the Romanticism of it and my youth.
