My Noob TT Sub 16613.

WM9 was superior of course but this was pretty damn good out of the box.

Gen vs. rep. The crown was oversized but other than that this was nice.

It is great to see you on this thread I hope this continues :)

I had what may have been the Noob but more likely MBK. It is a pity there are no good versions of the Bluesy around now. There was rumors JF were going to do one with a SH3135 but I have not seen it happen yet.

The bluesy is one of my obsessions. Here is a great thread https://forum.replica-watch.info/fo...613-gang-show-off-your-16613-tt-thread/page58

Here is a bad photo taken today of my Franken 16803.

You are a legend sir!
I remember when I first started to venture into this hobby years ago. Mr. By-Tor provided some great articles back in the day!

Thanks man. Rush rules!

@yllekp: I bought many TT Subs back in the day but none of them fully satisfied me. WM9 was pretty damn good but it was too expensive and the SELs didn't sit properly. It's a kind of watch that looks fantastic in the pictures and on other people's wrists but at the end of the day the gold was always a bit too much for me. But then again I was in my early 30's back then. Now in my 40's I could probably pull it off. :D Yours is a fantastic looking build. That must have cost you haha.

More than half the real deal unfortunately, probably closer to 3/4, fortunately I only get obsessed by very few watches. I honestly think this is the nicest Rolex they ever made. The 5513 and the SMP 300 2531.80 were the other absolute obsessions. I have a beautiful franken 5513 and after buying building and generally messing with the 2531 I just went gen.

Here is that Bluesy again.

Yeah it's definitely one of the most beautiful gold watches. It's the sunburst dial and gold combination that does it for me.

I can think of a few others too. :)
