I have to agree with this guy. As for mesmerizing, I can’t stop looking at my wrist, even though I could care less what time it is:

I came here to say Bluesy!

Intoxicating is a good word for it. Especially if you live on the ocean / are a boater like I am, there's just something about the blue and gold and the ocean.

Agreed. Oddly don't like it - generally don't like chronos.

Right now in my collection I find these three to be most Intoxicating. Meaning I can't take my eye's off of them when wearing and think about how lucky I am to own them.

I prefer the 5 digit Rolex models as well. The ceramics just have never clicked with me.

In terms of the Rolex 16613Lb, the "Bluesy", when I first saw it one of the thoughts the went through my mind was, "It's a Submariner, and that blue dial! Wow!" Clearly a gorgeous watch with the Submariner heritage.

I go from wearing the Bluesy for days at a time, can't get it off my wrist, to finding it a tad flashy and wearing something else, but it always comes back.

Here is my Rolex Submariner 16613LB - M Serial(2008).

Agreed on the Bluesy, it is intoxicating. Unfortunately I could never get one because then I couldn't drive with it.

That is high on my list and have been waiting for it for almost 2 years now. Will actually be in the Canary Islands and through Europa - and if its available there will definitely consider buying .

I've always been smitten with the Sub Smurf. Love the blue and white gold. Wish I bought it when I had the chance years ago. Cheers!

For me it's the 16600 Sea Dweller. That one is always in my mind (and sadly not on my wrist).

The winner for me as well - have this one earmarked for my 60th
