Greetings i have the same watch 116613lb one thing that i notice that no many ppl seems to know or talk about are the gold letters on the 11 series the 12 serias has white letters and that was the difference between the black dial the the blue dial other than the color dial the markings are different i do prefer the gold markings however i think my opinion is bias since i own a bluesy what are your thoughts

Michael , I’ve had my 116613LB Since 2015!!! In love with it every day , not that I wear it every day as you mentioned also!!! On days off I have worn my SD4K like you or GMT … I think the Bluesy though is Rolex’s most beautiful watch !!!! I had a previous 5 digit 16613lb years before which I sold off but regretted it ever since . So I purchased my new ceramic Bluesy new from my local AD and never looked back !!! Congrats on yours it looks stunning mate!!

Hi Michael, I really enjoy your content and count myself one of those who’s been around long enough to appreciate the more complicated/ personal aspects of the reviews. Regarding the Bluesy, i look forward to any additional updates you provide over the years, as I’m sure you’re relationship with the watch will evolve over time.

Hi! I currently own a datejust 16233 two tone with a black face and diamond hour markers. It's my first rolex! Wanted to celebrate my 30th with it. Currently looking at buying a bluesey to dedicate to the birth of my son! Everyone goes on and on about the steel models, but I love the two tone classic look. Also looking forward to going up on wrist size from a 36 to a 41

It’s amazing I’ve had the exact thought as you but in relation to the new Oyster Perpetual versus the previous reference. For example, the 116000 OP36 wore much larger because it had the maxi style square lugs. The new one went thin and curvy. The past model will, like you said, take more of a polish. While it’s a 36, it’s really broad.

Love my 126711 CHNR for similar reasons. The rose works lovely on darker skin and in some lighting even fades to a steel look Totally agree with your views on being mature enough (regardless of finance) to wear a bi-metal piece. You need to wear the piece not the other way around

I’ve enjoyed wearing a similar range of Rolex models as you Michael & with hindsight would have just bought a 40mm Bluesy 5 years ago as a ‘one & done’. 40mm Sub is much better than 41mm in my opinion - & I own both. I could have bought the 41mm Bluesy at retail from my AD but paid more for a NOS 2010 with ‘Smurf’ dial last year & it’s one of my favourite watches. I’ve also considered a full gold 40mm but can’t convince myself to pull the tricker - the mix of gold/steel/blue is 🤩 & the gold text is the icing on the 🍰

I’ve been waiting for a submariner 41mm green bezel for sometime now. I stopped by the AD to chasing it up and was offered two tone rose gold yatchtmaster 40 black dial ref:126621 I took it, I’m a steel watch guy I’m still getting used to seeing that gold on my wrist. Sometimes I find it loooks better from a distance in the mirror over looking down on it direct. It definitely looks better when under nice lighting or out in the sun. Hasn’t taken away my craving for the sub.

My main watch is a Tudor GMT, I am eyeing the 126613 as my next watch and first rolex. I am 26 so I am curious based off your last video about the bluesy if you think that I am jumping ahead of myself by going TT. I just think the Bluesy is one of the most beautiful rolexes and I would really like a Pepsi but the chance of getting that at retail are slim to none.

What's your opinion on homage watches (I specify homage, NOT replicas). There are times where I'll want to wear a nice watch, but don't feel comfortable carrying five figures on my wrist (I don't have a Rolex yet). Curious to understand your thoughts on that.

Not a big fan of homage watches personally, for those who have the real watch already. But I understand if you don’t have the watch you want yet. I don’t like Tudor in that it releases old school Rolexes basically.

I hear your points on the yellow writing and the size but the blue dual is different. It's called Royal Blue and it's stunning. As for the size comment it's only 0.3 mm larger (went from 40.2 to 40.5), So people are making a bigger deal of it than it really is. The white writing did bother me a little bit at first, I have to admit, but I haven't thought about it much since.

Rolex prices have gone up like crazy. Today the Rolex Submariner Blue Model m126613lb-0002 with 2-tone OysterSteel and 18K gold bracelet retails at an authorized Rolex dealer for $15,600.00. In 2020 it was $14,300, so it has gone up 9%. Not surprisingly used Rolex watches are higher priced, perhaps due to supply and demand. It is my favorite Rolex watch, it is super beautiful and very classy looking. That is why I just bought it last week. It maybe hard to find and buy, but my super friendly Rolex AD got it for me super fast, just in one day.....unbelievable.

I own the 41mm, agreed on the clasp, it's huge. White text or gold I'm not fussed. I do prefer its thinner lugs over the supercase though. Wears more slender on the wrist. The stocky 40mm Sub has its fans, not denying that, it's just not for me. I skipped the whole 11x generation Sub by going YM, SD43 and Sub41. The Bluesy is a looker, half jewelery half toolwatch. I wear mine at the office or working from home, at the weekend during the day or on a night out, basically whenever I'm in the mood for it, no rhyme nor reason. It's not my most worn watch but it's my prettiest. It's beautiful in an exuberant kind of way. My most worn watch is the more versatile YM pt dial, beautiful in a quiet way, calm and collected. However, being more versatile has a double edge, it can sooner become boring. The Bluesy at least is not a boring watch, but can its loudness become tiring? To avoid one pitfall or the other, I think it's good to alternate looks by just following the mood of the day or the week, whatever picks my fancy. I also appreciate handsome watches of a more sober and conservative nature, like a classic white gold VC Patrimony, a dress watch on a leather strap. All types have their place in my watchbox. I haven't worn the Bluesy in 3 weeks. I feel like putting it on my wrist tomorrow, going to the office in my blue bimmer, a 2007 330i coupe, a good match for my Sub. I normally drive a hot hatchback instead with almost 300k km on the clock, model SEAT Leon Cupra R in black. I love my old bangers.
