It’s a beautiful watch and I love it because it’s a sub! As far as too much blue (blue is my favorite color)....it can be at times. (IMO)

Yes, but you'd be unable to find one...

It's gorgeous in person, and I love the heft of the gold.

However, me personally, I just can't put that much money into one watch. For the same amount, I can have 3, 4, 5 (maybe more) nice SS watches to rotate.

I just picked mine up from my AD a couple weeks ago. Love it and if it’s was to get discontinued I would have regretted not pulling the trigger. Got it for my 25th wedding anniversary. It’s such a different thing in WG vs my SS Sub. Weight for sure but the WG color is really nothing like SS. hard to explain but it has a warm look.

Put it this way, I no longer wear any of my other Rolexes. The greatest there is.

I don't have one but you should go for it IMHO, Blue is my favourite color (don't like the hulk or kermit)

I like the shimmer and weight of wg but for me it is just too much blue.

I am a huge fan of it and if you like it, go for it. For the PM blue Subs, I am more of a fan of the YG and the blue. But that's just me.

The combination of the flat blue dial and the flat blue bezel works extremely well. It’s more consistent compared to the sunburst of the YG imho.

In the sun it pops but indoors it is very modest. Perfect daily wearer. If you like a high bling bling watch this is not the one.

Happy wearer here

That's a money shot there. I always thought the sunburst Bluesey dial, bezel would be better on this but I can see now this is meant to be and for good reason... It's just such a rich blue.

It’s been my daily since June. Love it. Some people don’t, and that’s okay.

I guess its a matter of perspective. In my humble opinion, its a hard pass. I would NOT buy that watch.
