What are everyone’s thoughts on two-tone Rolexes, or just two-tone in general?

I have a TT YM and love it, though I admit it is a bit flashy. Frankly it’s a matter of preference

That is a beauty! Congrats.

She arrived! Stunning, to say the least. The gold adds some heft, although it’s a pleasant, balanced heft. The Sub sits noticeably higher off the wrist than my GMT Master or Yachtmaster, and also just feels *bigger* even though all three are 40mm. I knew the Sub had the larger caseback but I forgot just what it felt and looked like.

I feel like the Two-Tonedness is more subdued than I thought it would be, but I think that’s because this is just such a sporty watch in general. The gold bezel, crown, hands, and indices work tremendously well together. And I should mention that the bezel action is nothing short of amazing. Decisions decisions...haha

Thanks; good to know the madness has not spreaded so folks can at least get their hands on OPs and DJs.

Not my thing - purely as a personal preference. A little too loud.

I agree but given the direction in which Rolex is going, I don’t see them pushing more pieces in the market in the future either.
So, I don’t think wait and watch for SS prices to go down might not work out.

Well, the prevailing consensus seems to be skewed to the negative on two-tone; however, I shall not be swayed!

I have a TT Sub with Black Dial (116613LN) incoming; should be arriving tomorrow. As a child of the early 80’s I feel like the time is right for me to embrace my inner Gordon Gecko. I’ll post some wrist shots tomorrow and provide some initial opinions.

For reference, I purchased it from Crown and Caliber for a little over 18% off retail and it comes with Full Kit (dated March of this year) and looks untouched. I can return it for free if it’s not a clear winner.

For those interested: my sweet spot is 36-40mm, 10-13mm tall, bracelet, clasp with easy expansion, and robust enough movement to not need servicing for at least a decade. Also, ideally it’s a piece that will hold 75% of its value or even appreciate.

It’s been like two weeks, haha, give me some credit.

No lotto, just slowly losing my mind. I’m probably going to start selling some of my older pieces that don’t get worn much. I’ve sort of figured out my sweet spot (after a buttload of buying, selling, trading, etc), so now I’m going to try to consolidate the collection. Also, the impending market collapse means I should take advantage of the watch bubble while it’s still here.

Yeah don’t drop the iPhone. Also don’t be cheap with the 90 bucks to get the screen fixed

Agree with M1–I can definitely see the appeal but just not for me

Not for me

The TT datejust is gorgeous and very classic in 36. Gets a little loud at 41, though, IMO.

IMO every DJ in 41 is just a bit too ostentatious for my taste. But I do agree- of all the TT the only one I like is the 36 DJ

Not for me - too flashy. Not a reason to like/dislike it but I do find that wearers’ ages are correlated with the last time two tone was popular (80s/90s)

The only one that I’d probably consider would be the GMT root beer. Not a huge fan of TT in general

If you’re cool with bling then I think TT is aesthetically gorgeous. This is a beautiful piece!

I love the look of the TT sub - it’s my favorite Rolex after BLNR. I’d put it on a strap though.

I love that two tone Daytona with the black dial and gold registers in this pic. Fantastic price point too compared to other non ceramic Daytonas

My only issue with these TT Daytonas is the gold bezel...if it had a ceramic bezel it would be a must-have

If I had a watch for every season
