New Member and New to Rolex
Hello everyone, I am looking to pick up a rolex. Yes my first one in 48 yrs. I want a sub 116613LB ss/gold model. I know a lot of you will say to start out with the ss model but I really love the blue sunburst dial with the tt bracelet. I dont think I can be talked out of the tt for my first rolex. LOL.... I am looking for a used one with the box and all documentation. What kind of price will I be looking at? High/Low... My other watches I like are the Daytona and the GMT Master 2 and sea dweller.

The TT blue Sub is absolutely stunning and is a great choice for a first Rolex. Personally I feel it is one of the best looking watches that is currently available from Rolex. The perfect blend of steel, gold and blue. As for the price, I don't know what the US MSRP is, but you can easily find out when you visit your AD. However, I can provide you with a couple of shots of the 116613 LB for some encouragement.

Great watch. Look on chrono24 for some prices of new and used. Just to get you in the ballpark. Then you can PM a trusted seller to acquire the one you want.

Welcome to the forum. Great choice for a first Rolex.
As others stated check with the trusted sellers here. Prices have been in the 8-10k range of late depending on how new and if it's a complete set.
