Anyone else really not a fan of two tone bracelets?

Touché, sir. Wise counsel.

I usually don't lower myself into these kind of situations, but the complete lack of decorum got the better of me.

I think they look fine on others but personally not my thing. My 16753 root beer came on a two tone bracelet and my first order of business was to find a suitable strap.

Two-tone looks great with the right clothes

I didn't like them at all for the longest time. I just bought a GMT two tone (black and gold) and I'm in love! What a difference a little gold makes. My wife says the two tone is her favorite Rolex I have (I also have a BLNR and a Hulk). I wore mine for the first time last week. I have to say, I noticed everyone looking at the watch - this is something that no one has done before (other than the 2 WIS I see almost daily who pull my wrist to see what I am wearing every day I see them - LOL! - I do the same to them).

On my phone screen, that may as well be ss, not tt

Yes Doc, TT owners are proud of their watches.

You're just embarrassing yourself with that non-sequitur. Move on.

A thread is a thread. Negative posts are never positive. Sorry Doctor!

[STEELINOX]

I too am also an "All in" sort of peep; either its gotta be all yelo in color or all white, or maybe even all black...

[HogwldFLTR]

No problem in appearance imho; only in price both at purchase and sale.

[Brny11]

I am relatively immature in my watch taste as I notice my interests evolving over time. Until recently I have been completely uninterested in two tone. However, recently jubilee TT datejusts have sparked my interests.

So who knows where I’ll stand tomorrow.

[Quamby]

I'm also not a big fan of TT models. But I did purchase a 116503(black dial). I bought it because there is no chance of me getting a SS 116500 in the near future, and the 116503 in the Rolex advert looks damn nice.

I do agree that a SS/Rose-gold TT 116503 would be even better.

[Andad]

My 116713 is one of the best looking models that Rolex has made.

My blue 16613 and old '71 TT DJ are not that far behind.

I also like full gold in yellow and rose but I don't have a place for white gold or Pt.

Also happy with most SS models.

[Godfather111]

Wore this for many years in the early aughts :



It was still considered cool back then (at least I thought so). But yeah not so much anymore. Maybe it will come back around.

Still have my eye on the TT Bluesy on my to-get list.

[SS Oyster]

Yes not a fan except for RG/SS in CHNR rootbeer TT, which for some reason looks great to me.

Not a fan of TT in other brands but with Rolex I instantly bought one in RG / Black Dial as soon as I set my eyes on it, no regrets at all even after 6 months.

[Joearch]

I love the way the TT DateJust looks on my wife. Her only watch and rarely takes it off. I had a TT Sub with black face and it only stuck for six minths or so before it was traded for another piece. Certainly room in a collection for those that like them.

[Boaters]

Not a big fan but the new CHNR and the Bluesy are exceptions for me

[rich_harris]

Not a huge fan of the TT - would rather go for a solid yellow gold.

I like the added weight of the two tone GMT and Sub. over SS and the added look of the gold without being too over the top with all gold. The two tone sport models to me are the best of both worlds.

[Jojoshop]

I own a TAG 2 tone bracelet. I don’t like waering it and not sure of its the two tone or the yellow gold. I can’t see myself owning a two tone anytime soon

[jrs146]

I have never been a two tone fan. Just not my thing. However I did try on a CHNR and really liked it. I should have bought it. In fact, my wife was with me and said it was the nicest Rolex she had ever seen and way nicer than any of the ones I have currently

I have always lusted after a bluesy. Saw a preowned in shop window Saturday 116613LB so tried it on.
Damn the blue dial is stunning absolutley love it
Despite the beauty of the dial and iconic sub looks I just know I couldnt wear that bracelet.
Another illusion shattered, next up Jennifer Anniston will tell me she never intended to go out on a date with me

[DP63]

I fully appreciate them, in fact, I love my friends TT Daytona, but they just dont look right on me. I'm not a bling kind of guy in any way, always gone for the less is more approach with most things so I dont think TT suits me.

Price of TT = 1.25 x SS

Price of PM = 2 to 3 X SS

Just saying....

PM is great if you can commit to a loss and a huge initial output.

[droptopman]

I like most of the Rolex line in all materials. I agree that TT is somewhat dated, but I am kind of an 80's guy so can still pull it off. The Sub LB is still one of my favorite models.

[For the Lulz]

Personally I feel its a skin colour/tone question more so than anything.

I'm white and unless I have a tan... stainless steel / white gold looks the best on me. I can only wear yellow gold if I have a tan, so I don't really bother with it.

As a result for me, two tone is somewhat pointless.

I do aspire to one day purchase a day-date in white gold with an olive face! That's my grail!

[zjd168]

To me Rolex SS/FG >> TT, but I don't dislike TT.

[Mystro]

Depends on the model. You really cant lump all TT into one pile if you know anything about watches. Its too broad of a stroke to make.

Totally right. A bluesy is a totally different beast than a TT Datejust.
