DJ 41 Blue Dial or 116613LB as a complement to a TT YM?
Hi all,
I have found that I am drawn to a three watch rotation: two dressier but versatile watches that can be worn with a suit (I'm in one most of the week), and a casual watch. The following are the primary watches in my current rotation: A DJ 41 with blue dial and fluted bezel, a TT YM 16623, and a 114060. The YM isn't going anywhere because it's my Dad's watch. So the question: Would you rather rotate DJ 41 blue dial or a 11613LB with the YM? I love my DJ 41 - it may be my favorite watch - but I've always been drawn to the 116613LB. Also, if flipped my DJ 41 for a 116613LB, I would probably also eventually flip my 114060 for a GMT Master II or Explorer II black dial. The other option would be to keep my DJ 41 and flip my 114060 towards a 16613; however, would it be too much to have two blue dial watches? Thoughts? Thanks! |

I'd flip the DJ for a Bluesy 116613 LB.
Later you can add or flip the 114060 for a GMT 2 LN C. That would make a great trio. YM, Bluesy and GMT 2... |

Current set is versatile. Nice mix. I wear a 114060 and a 116613 LB frequently but I love Subs. They work good in a rotation with a polar 16570 IMO. White, blue, black dials similar to your set. All depends on if you prefer the Sub over the DJ.

Yeah, I may be overthinking the situation, haha. I really do love my DJ and would hate to part with it. I've just have always loved the 116613LB and think it would pair well with the YM.
