I agree. Like the 124060 as well.

Yeah congratulations! The TT Bluesy looks fabulous. I got mine last Saturday and I love it.

I met a guy yesterday at the Rolex boutique who was also wearing the latest 126613LB, how crazy is that?

The only blue dial 12x "steel" Sub, ha!

Nice congrats as well! I think you were the first 12 bluesy on TRF. Love it. I am thinking if people request it early will be easier to get, but then the list will grow.

Love it! I didn't realize the dial is the same blue as the DJ41. I prefer the white lettering, makes it pop. Congrats.

I agree. As I mentioned before, don’t notice that much of a difference from my 114060. If you put them on, side by side, yeah you can see the differences but they are subtle. That being said, if anything it brought more eyeballs onto the bluesy. The 11’s are hot online now.

How are you 12 series bluesy Owners liking the white lettering In person? I’m convincing myself it definitely pops more but than I see the old 116613lb and enjoy how the gold lettering is more subtle

So you're saying new bluesy has same dial color as the DJ41? Makes sense. They use the same color on other DJs, OPs come with the same color and so is the SkyD. Makes it more efficient for them. Why make 5 different blues when they can just have 1.

I think it's a different blue. Rolex call it Royal Blue in the TT Sub and just Blue in the DJ41 and YM40. But it could be just marketing. We need side by side pictures in the same lighting conditions.

OP said they are the same color. Which is why I'm curious. OP41 calls the blue bright blue but it looks like it's the same blue as DJ41, SkyD and the YM. So naming doesn't really matter. But it looks like they're different colors.

I tried the bright blue OP41 at the AD the day I first saw my Bluesy. Totally different blue.

I personally prefer the white lettering, gives it a fresh and sportier look. The gold lettering was more formal but fine too, it wouldn't have been an issue to me.

That is a gorgeous dial. Definitely a different blue from the previous model and the white lettering has (as mentioned by others) a cleaner, sportier vibe.

I've owned a Bluesy but for several reasons it was returned. However, I'm going to visit the AD to see this one in person. Read: see it properly. I might try it again despite my indifference to sports models.

OP: Enjoy you watch in good health - you got a beauty!
