If the choices are between a 6 digit Bluesy and the new Sea Dweller, I'd go with the Sea Dweller. Although it's a hefty 43mm, the lugs look more proportionate to the case versus the 6 digit.

I'd rather have the 5 digit Bluesy.

I think the tt sd is a abomination. Rolex is jumping the shark. Sad to see!

Saw one yesterday while I was wearing my bluesy. The guy stopped me, had me take it off and try it on. I could see the frustration he had in his once he had the sunburst dial on. The black and gold is too serious for me. Needs more life

TT SD hands down. No contest.

My AD jokes about bluesy buyers saying, 9/10 of guys who walk in to buy them are car salesmen.

An AD should have more respect than to joke about his customers. If he talks about others, remember, he will talk about you. I'd find another AD.

I also found the joke inappropriate. The car salesman must be really successful to afford buying a TT sub, which is more expensive in SRP than SS models in general.

Bluesy FTW...

TT SD looks like a suped up TT Sub LN .
Unless you want a black dial .

I’ve had both TT Subs and the Bluesy stayed .

There is a huge bias towards the Bluesy on this forum. Everyone loves it and will always recommend you buy it immediately. In my opinion it’s the sort of watch a second hand car salesman would wear. It looks almost cartoonish. Buy what YOU like and if you need a bunch of strangers on a Internet forum to tell you what to do, then I’ll join in and say yes get the bluesy.

More than the “approval” of the forum or follow the bias for my choice, this is the kind of input that I am looking for... thank you.

I have to say too, that the “second hand car salesman” it wasn’t necessary. It sounds contemptuous and disrespectful.

Have you tried one on yet?

I have and liked it better than I thought I would.

I don’t own one, but would not hesitate if in the market.

I don’t sell used cars thanks very much.

Been to a lot of car dealerships here in the sunshine state...
WHERE, YOU'D MOST EXPECT TO SEE NEW OR USED CAR SALES PEOPLE
WEAR THE TT BLUE SUBMARINER AKA BLUESY !!!

But I haven't seen any at the car dealerships.
I did see my sales rep at my AD wear his 5 digit bluesy though.
Stunning!!! And I saw it on a gentleman at Starbucks, and a guy at
Popey's, and a guy at a mattress store shopping...
Not all in the same day of course...
Shall I go on ?
But , no... no car sales people... YET!!!

My opinion is that both of those would look so much better without gold in a bracelet.
