[HELP PLEASE!] BLUE or BLACK SUB TT 116613LN vs LB

This is my first post, but I know it's not the first time that someone has authored a similar inquiry.

I currently own a TT black and gold dial 116613 LN Sub. I have owned it for 3 years. I'm in my mid 30s, olive skin, middle eastern...I look great in black. I have salt and pepper hair.

Recently, I've been thin that I made the wrong choice, at least not more seriously condiering the bluesy. I could have purchased the sunburst instead of the black dial, but at the time, I though NO WAY...I don't have blonde or red hair and I'm not white and I'm not 50 plus. It wasn't even a viable option, and I wanted a sub, not SS bc I wanted something flashier. The color of my skin and hair have absolutely a lot to do with it, because if I were light with whiter skin without question I would go with the blue from the getgo.

Now, I realize the bluesy pops more, it is arguably more iconic, the blue color is unlike any other blue that rOLEX makes, it's a different hue, etc.

My friend also makes fun of my LN and calls it a bumble bee...I raps to the Black and Yellow song by Wiz....perhaps he is just jealous bc he has a SS pre ceramic bezel sub :)

Options: I could swap it but my wife gave it to me as a gift and I don't think that's right. MY WIFE DOES NOT like the blue face at all...with that said, assume that she is on board. She hasn't seen it in person really.

I could purchase another watch and have Two TTs, but that maybe stupid....no one does that...I really don't have any other watches in my collection and the two are so damn similar....

The tough thing is there are no right answers. BUT I would appreciate some thoughtful feedback from others who own or have owned the watches, and some ideas from you all generally.

I will not be offended, regardless of the response. I would really appreciate all input.

Thanks!!!!
