This was the first watch to ever wow me when I first started off as a young collector. Saw it every day on my boss's wrist and every day I thought to myself "I gotta have that watch". I'm happy to say that in a few months time I'll finally be able to go out and buy the watch! I've tried it on a few times and I'm absolutely sure it's the watch for me. Thank you for the review Bruce!

Hey Bruce, using your kids as an excuse to buy luxury watches is a pretty good trick. How long can you use this excuse before your wife catches on to it. *Smile*

The Blusey is my favorite Sub too. Blue and gold go so well together.

Even though we get in a healthy amount of these two tones, we always end up picking up the Bluesy to admire its beauty. Great review Bruce!

Despite having mine since 2011 and following every single release, I never knew they updated the dial. Loved the flat dial compared to the sunburst even then, so knowing this makes it even more special :)

I purchased a 116613 (two-tone blue) back in the early 90's and I think it's been one of the best purchases I've made over the years. I cannot tell you how many compliments I've received over the years, and of course the appreciation has been hard to beat. It's also held up very well, the finish on it today is almost as good as it was when new. It's traveled with me numerous times around the world, and has never let me down. The time has always been spot on. Good Luck with yours!

One of my favorite Rolex watches. I’d like to add one to my collection as well. Great review Bruce.

The blue and gold combination is more than super awesome ! Makes it look so classy.

I had a 2000 model bluesy and sold it about 5 years later. I had rued the day so a week ago I bought an immaculate 2010 bluesy and I love it, I love it and I love it. Beats my solid 18ct gold day-date by a mile!

A great choice, I bought my son one of these for his 18th birthday and he still loves it. Yes it has also appreciated in value which means he has to be careful when and where he wears it which is a sad thing to have to say now.

Hi Bruce, I'm considering to get this piece but recently there has been new release an updated version of the bluesy and I'm would like to know, will the older model w gold font and smaller dimension still be a better choice? Which will u pick and why. Thanks 😊

It's flashy, gaudy, old fashioned and kinda ugly...and I want one. I want one bad.

I absolutely love the fact that you mention your watches going to your children in the future!!! We are here to enjoy life and experience things and make the best of our time living this is true. But when it's our time there is a whole next generation of watch lovers that will follow us and who better to enjoy our beautiful time pieces than our children! Very beautiful piece in deed! Great vid brother!!🍻

Great video! I own the same GMT Master 2 and I want to buy the two tone next as well! Such a gorgeous play of colours.

I have a sunburst dial 116613lb. It’s such a joy to wear and looking at it. It’s pure elegant watch with powerful character to it. The gold part is protected by RX-8 protective film and I wear it with peace of mind. I also have a 16610 sub. But bluesy is with me to everywhere I go. Makes my every single day. Happy owner

This would be my next watch too. Though scratches on gold will scar my heart

This is one of my fantasy watches! Blue and gold are striking together, especially that particular shade of blue. If Rolex produced an all stainless steel blue Sub, I'd make the effort to save for it!

I have a black sub , the two tone bluesy sub and the explorer 2 polar. Waiting on a Daytona to complete my collection ! Do you wear this only with clothes that match with the blue dial ? For example you wear it with say black ?

I own a 16613 two-tone bluesy and love it. Can't go wrong with a Rolex and the Daytona is on my list.

This watch is nothing like the watches I like, but I love it. This is the exception to the "less is more" rule. One of the best looking watches ever made for me

I have a fair amount of Rolex stainless, but also love my TT, and the bluesy is definitely one of my favourite Rolex 2 tone. Mine is a 16613LB, 1997 (last tritium dial), but I love the modern ones too. Although I agree that these early ceramic 116613LB with solid blue dial are rarer, I never really liked those, and much prefer the sunburst dial. My other favorite 2 tones are: the TT Daytona champagne dial/subdial black or vice-versa (Paul Newman dial), they are relatively rare, as this was a config reserved for PM, but few where sold in TT by Rolex .. And the new TT root beer, a very cool watch too... These 3 pieces are my favourite Rolex TT.

I own the Sunray dial ceramic bluesy and it's gorgeous

I absolutely love the gold text on the dial. This is my favorite submariner of all.

Mine is a 2004 Bluesey...but this year the white time marks 3 of them fell out...what could be the problem?

What you think about the all gold bluesy?

I’m not a two tone type of guy , but on the bluesy it it works! It’s iconic and just Works!!!!

Got this for my 21st for around 10-11k. I generally never wear it and have come back basically 10 years later to find that it’s held it’s price so well. It’s personally too outlandish for everyday wear, but what I will say is that this watch definitely what I will describe as “holds a presence” in real life and this particular version is probably the best out of all of them. A great watch if “presence” is your thing.

Great video mate , I own 116613lb 2014 Sunburst Blue version , this watch just speak's class ,this watch is for my daughter , and one more to buy for my other daughter Regards Paul

The 16613LB is my first Rolex. It will always be in my heart. I will add another TT Bluesy to my collection when they upgrade to the 3235 movement...which I'm thinking will be next year. Thanks for the vid!

I have a lot of watches Tudor Rolex omega tissots tag Cartier Breitling and let me tell you that the Rolex bluesy is by far my favourite

Hi ...I am Bob too...just like you....its how I feel this submariner is the best in design with two tones highlighted by gold is just exquisite....to me this a anytime anywhere master piece.

i buy and trade watches for half a decade now and i acquired the bluesy only earlier this year. man i can't let go of this even though it isn't the most expensive, rarest or limited edition of my collection. this watch speaks to me every day of the week, regardless at work or play. and i bought the gloss dial version as well because I did not like the blue sunburst and i am glad i have made that decision (probably would have traded away the sunburst bluesy)

The previous 40mm Bluesy had yellow/gold lettering on its dial face. The new 41mm Bluesy has all white lettering on its dial face. Also the new Bluesy has the Rolex Crown just below the 6 o'clock bar located right between the words SWISS MADE. The older model does not.

Great review Bruce! Very in depth and I got to know the watch a lot better. I am glad a you are doing these reviews for Bob's Watches. I'd never heard of this company before you started doing reviews of the watches they have lent in. I looked on their website, and see that they have a lot of great watches. I'll be going there for sure when I'm ready to buy my next watch.

nice review. I have this 116613LB, but in a rarer produced reference with the Diamond markers at 1,2,4,5,7,8,10,11. this is the nicest looking bluesy they make and with the diamonds against that blue gloss dial; it POPS! Also I noticed mine has a beautiful gold frame around the date window which might make it more special I HOPE ! the Indian salesman at the AD urged me to get this years ago.

Is the dial sun burst dial?

For me the most pretty Watch of all ;-)

Had one in black. Wears well and looks even better😀

The central spire of the coronet does not align with the point on the 12 o clock hour marker

It's a good looking piece. A guy on our Norway tour had one. When I asked if the bezel was aluminum or ceramic, he didn't know. I said 'let me see the clasp' and sure enough: glide lock, 6 digit Bluesy.

I love my sunburst ceramic Bluesy. Mainly a weekend watch, but I wear my 216570 polar as my daily. Can't miss pieces. Great review that captured the heart of the blue and gold Sub!

Awesome video on this beautiful Rolex submariner. If I could afford to by a submariner this would be the one I’d buy 👍🏻

Hi Bruce, can you make a video comparing your Rolex and Grand Seiko and tell us the real-life experience - how do you connect with each of these? There are a lot of videos online talking about the specs of GS watches but I think the real-life owning experience is very important too.

This is the most beautiful two tone watch Rolex has ever made. I’d pick this over the rootbeer two tone anytime of the day.

I'm looking for one now they are asking 10k and half . I want to take it as investment watch and enjoy it as well .

I just got one for my birthday I love it so fricken much🙏🏾❤️❤️❤️

I got one and I’m loving it

To me if you say Dive watch - all I think of is the Submariner....my all time favorite...my grail....

Just picked up the 2 tone sub from my AD, but I don't fancy it as a daily (originally wanted SS). Should I sell or keep longer-term and bring it out on occasions?

What’s the waitlist is on this watch? :)

Does rolex also give gifts when you buy a Rolex? Because ive seen some people getting hats or Wallets from them after purchasing a watch.

What's its alternative ?? In Seiko .🙏

I have been dreaming about owning this watch since 2016 but for 14,000 dollars I might have to buy pre-owned

Great shots, Bruce

Just before Eastern this I treat my self with a brand new ''Bluesy'' Oh so I love it. Never ever gonna sell this one. This one is following med to Heaven when I finaly depart

I think I'm going to tell my AD to add this one to my wish list.

I also think the blusey is the most beautiful watch in Rolex across the board

Formerly, I planned to buy a two-tone black sub., but my girlfriend told me that the two-tone blue looks better (fresher and younger), so I've got the bluesy one. It's the most unique eye-catching watch both on wrist and collection box indeed!

Bluesy is the most beautiful R out there ...is my target for the future .

This my love watch . I grab my cash I almost go buy it but I change my mind and I go get a bike 🤣 . But still it’s on my heart only this exactly this . Dude I’m happy for you . What a beauty watch

Looks amazing in real life

What does lb stands for?

Loved the intro!

great rolex submariner review on two tone bluesy watch !!!!

Luckey daughters, Bluesy is absolutley Beautiful probably 1 of the most striking watch models Rolex has ever produced, for sure. What about price? Thanx. P.S. Tx.

I love the crispy Sub bezel!

Big, heavy, in your face. I love my 2016. Also have the 2018 GMT Master II Pepsi with Jubilee. There is a weight difference. Also lugs on the GMT are a little narrower. Love both. Exceptional pieces. Sold my Batman, and got more than I paid for it. Allowed me to get the Pepsi. The used market is nutty right now.

sold me. buying one next year.

Beautiful watch Bruce ;)

This is my daily wear and was a very generous gift! I'm batting out of my league as I'm not a collector I am a landscape contractor. It's beautiful and extremely durable. I'm probably taking a lot of value out of it with daily wear in a construction environment, but why have it and not wear it right?

Gorgeous in 18ct yellow gold but aggressive and tooly in stainless steel, it is just marvelous! I think this is going to be sought after Rolex model in the very near future.

This is my grail watch (although I'd accept the 41mm version too lol). Did you buy it for your daughter? I agree the two tone is superior to the plain SS and looks classier/dressier and just straight up beautiful.

Love Rolex, unfortunately too small for me.... prefer 43mm bezel... :) great review... :)

Tried on a Bluesy at the weekend. Caught me off guard how good they look on the wrist. I now have one on my wish list

TT Bluesy is the best modern luxury steel sports Rolex, functional and sharp! Hulk and Batman have been made popular because it's a cheaper model than now goes for inflated prices, however you have to have real money to start with if you're thinking of the Bluesy. Now do you understand the satisfaction of a bezel action, compare to the Captain Cook. 👍

J Antony, Theo and Harris, Federico, urban gentry, hodinkee even Archie luxury, I can't scroll past anymore Rolex reviews, there's nowhere to scroll to

Beautiful I maybe will buy one

Stunning watch

such a underrated rolex nowadays

Just love it The best sub by far

The two tone is growing on me. 😎

I like the black one. Easy to wear

Rolex 41 Solid all Yellow Gold Submariner Bluesy?? Or the Rolex 41 Two Tone Submariner Bluesy ? ? ?

What are you considering BUY IT!! The Bluesy is a FANTASTIC version of The LANDLORD WATCH You can not go wrong 🔥🔥🔥

I would suggest maybe a Datejust or OP instead because your current GMT is so similar to a Sub.

Beautiful watch

Rolex two tone is the right amount of gold and steel. Solid gold is great $35k but two tone is $15K and looks sharp.

My favourite submariner also the two tone blue submariner!

Nice man.

Great father ❣️

Dude you are one great dad, giving submariners to your kids. After educating and guiding kids, giving them the training and skills to make it on their own and be a success, a watch is the perfect gift for them to remember you when you’re gone. They last 300 years with service and with icons like Subs you just won’t go wrong.

❤️my Sub Bluesy 116613 LB 👌

its look amazing I love it

Very nice. Should not have sold mine

AC3 loves the bluesy, so you may wanna reconsider Bruce

I like today’s feature watch more. One thing you should be aware of and I’m sure you know this but why not get em something in the 36”. Remember they will NOT have 7.5” wrists I’m positive unless they are weight lifters and even then might be a stretch. My girl weighs about 125 ish and has 6.5 wrists. Can both of your watches be resized down that much? Smaller case size would be best for them I’m still thinkin. I’m now 6’ and weigh 170ish I love my 36” watches, Look just fine. Just like Rob told me one day.

Just prefer the black dial/ bezel two tone version, more understated, sophisticated, and classy....in my opinion..

blue vs black?

My favourite watch

So you are just going to say nothing about the blob over at the 25 minute mark on the bezel of this here superlative chronometer?
