In this video I will be going over my Rolex Submariner Ref. 116613LB aka The Bluesy. It is one of my favorite Rolex Sport models in my collection, and I believe it is the best current watch Rolex has to offer. Follow the Instagram account @monarchtimepiececollection for more content!

I have this bluesy only its a vintage 1986, bought it new when my daughter was born. Has been worn extensively and serviced twice…it’s an heirloom and to this day out of my entire collection (21 watches) it’s still my favorite. I totally agree with you, you can’t go wrong with this one!

It truly is an overall amazing watch. Not because it’s a Rolex but overall the design and color scheme of the watch is just top tier

The Bluey is my favorite Rolex watch. It is a classic Rolex and its so beautiful. In 2020 it was priced at $14,300. Today, in 2023, it went up 9% ... its is now priced at $15,600. Surprisingly the used models are priced at a higher price. I checked at many Rolex dealers locally and in our USA, none had this watch new in stock. Order one from your Rolex jeweler, although you may have to wait a long time to get one.

Yup I think it’s a great watch to either wait to get at the AD or on the secondary market. The price on these are so solid you could probably get it on the secondary, wear it, ask the AD to get it for you too, and when it comes in at the AD just sell the one you got on the grey market and you probably will break even on it.

Great point. With sales taxes this watch would cost you $17k So why not just buy it on the grey market for $18k Speaking of that watch. Bluesy is the only Submariner I love. It’s a nice looking timepiece.

@@robbasilio7235 I agree. I prefer no date watches. The dials aren’t as busy, the cleaner aesthetic is a lot easier to look at and wear, it’s easier to set lol, and usually has a lot more symmetry than watches that have complications.

What do you think about submarine 16613 1994 model .? Is it worth 10k dollars ( like new one ) ?
@monarchtimepiececollection
@monarchtimepiececollection 11 ай бұрын
Definitely a good piece to get at that price point. For me personally, I think spending a little more for the model that I have is worth a price difference. The ceramic bezel will give you the peace of mind of not scratching it, the hour markers are a bit bigger and more prominent and fill out the dial a bit more, the bracelet has solid end links, and given the fact that it has 18 karat gold it gives it a bit more weight, and the clasp is a little nicer. Given the fact if you’re already spending $10,000 I think spending the extra 4000 to 5000 is worth it for all of those upgrades. Not to mention, I’m sure it has a better movement. Nonetheless, it is an iconic watch and it really does come down to preference.

Thanks bud! Tough choice but I would go with the bluesy. It’s a bit more versatile compared to the Pepsi. Unless if it’s the Pepsi on a jubilee. Given the fact that the grey market prices are relatively close I’d go with the bluesy because you’re not paying THAT much over retail. Plus it actually has precious metal in it so it has that added weight to it which is nice. The sunburst blue dial is 1000x nicer than the plain black dial. So I’d say try them on for sure at least. Take pictures of them on your wrist and see which one you’d gravitate towards more given the events you’ll be attending and wardrobe.

@@monarchtimepiececollection I'd go with the Bluesy. You'll pay a lot more for the GMT and if you don't need the time telling functionality of a GMT, why wait the extra time to receive one and pay so much more. The Bluesy makes a strong statement and is arguable the most recognized Rolex watch. Just be discreet and don't flash it in sketchy areas. Cheers!

I agree. The GO SeaQ has a better dial, better bezel action, and it comes in different sizing. Plus the larger model has that exposed caseback. I’m considering I’m trading the sub for a Polaris date, but being that it is a 42mm it wear a little larger on my wrist :/

If the bluesy is out of warranty it’s worth about 55% -60% of retail. If it’s a couple of years old it needs to be serviced and that’s going to take over a year at a Rolex service center. Even unworn it needs to be disassembled cleaned oiled and reassembled every couple of years. That’s going to cost you almost a grand. $15k msrp is too much for it. Unless it’s gotta be Rolex then there’s too many better options out there. I can have a watch with 2 tone 18k and stainless band and 18k bezel and crown with Swiss movement and sapphire crystal for less than $4k that has whatever name I want on the dial. Buy yourself that old bluesy that’s out of warranty and need’s service and learn the hard way. When you have to send it off for 12-16months you’ll understand why you don’t pay msrp for an old used watch even if it’s unworn

A service from a reputable watch maker is gonna cost $500-700. I know because I’ve spoken with them. Nothing but cleaning and applying some oils to it. Turn around rate isn’t that bad. If you want it done at Rolex then yes it’ll take a while longer. It’s a simple time and date function watch with a thick case giving it some WR. Shouldn’t be too bad to service along with the fact that a bluesy out of service will never ever be worth 55-60% of MSRP. These hold value rather well with or without warranty. Every watch needs to be serviced regardless. Yea you can a watch that meets the “specs” but trust me when I say very few watches come close to the quality of a Rolex. Forget status. They’re made with the best materials, rarely have lemons coming from the factory, well made, and hold value better than anything you’ll find at MSRP for $4k. Not to mention if you get a watch at MSRP for $4k you’re guaranteed to lose money on it if value retention is something you’re bringing up. But nonetheless, buy what you like for the reasons why you like it.
