I much prefer the full YG Sub. The only TT I like, are DJs.

Own both. There is no comparison to the YG

Love the Bluesy, mine's in for a Spa treatment at RSC, bu if I went full gold, for me it would be the black dial, think that combination is as iconic as the two tone with the blue dial.

Bluesy is two tone for me, while full gold I think is absolutely killer with the black dial, and one that I will add eventually.

I have owned numerous 16613 and 116613. Now I went for the all gold. They both look great but all gold feels better!

I don't think you can wrong with either. For me, I would do the TT. It is iconic and hopefully my next Rolex!

Agree. The black and all yellow gold combination is truly beautiful. First time I tried one on, I was in love with it. That never happens to me.

Two-tone looks much better in blue. Both are owned only by fortunate people.

I love how the TT looks on others, but not how it looks on me...I am a big fan of the YG, though

Bluesy for me, the contrast between gold and steel lifts the piece up but also tones it down compared to full gold.

I have owned a SS, TT and currently wear full YG. Full YG is actually not as "bright" as the TT Bluesy. Moreover, nothing beats the feeling and look of solid gold.

If money does not matter, all gold is the way to go. Always pure gold over TT in any model. TT is the traditional transitional piece to the pure gold model.

Love these “both” answers like yeah go and spend and extra dozen or two grand and get two diver watches! I think if u can afford either the all gold is awesome. In person it truly is something and will wear nice and heavy

Me personally am a big fan of two tone.

But for this model I think black works the best, although that’s probably contrary to most peoples opinions on this forum it’s very popular. I had the black for a while and traded it away (because it was a 5 digit).

Too much going for me with the gold two tone and blue dial just doesn’t work for me.

Recently bought the 116618LB it’s really no contest for me.

I went with the 126613 over full YG. I did get the 126619 though as I like that it is stealthy rather than full YG.
