Nothing like a blue dial Rolex, that would be the only way for me.

I'd go with the Smurf if I were to go with a PM Sub. From your YG choices I'd prefer the black dial hands down. That contrast does look stunning.

I prefer the black dial with YG. The blue for me, just doesn't work.

I think I'm one of the few people that loves yellow gold but isn't in love with the 116618. The dial is fantastic when you're in the sun but
1. I prefer green with yellow gold. 2. The blue bezel on the 116618 is a bit much for me. |

For me the black is too beautiful to be compared at all.

Just an update - I do appreciate all the insight and pics. Starting out I was really feeling the black - thought it toned it down a bit and really liked it. After seeing all the pics and getting all the feedback I find myself now leaning towards the blue. I love the diversity and tones of the blue - from a gleaming sunburst to a toned dark blue depending on the lighting.
Now the question - do I buy it outright or do trade my Black Daytona C towards it. Been debating if I’d miss the Daytona and if I see a need for both in the collection. I tend to wear the Daytona when going out - the gold Submariner would fill this space That’s the thought that’s been rolling around in my head the past week - Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Up to you really, if you even remotely like wearing the Daytona you will miss it in my opinion.
I rarely trade watches, but I have twice. The feel of one to the other is on another level. You will feel how much more premium the YG feels. But that also is a super desirable SS Rolex which make me say maybe stretch and try and keep it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Imo...this particular watch setup (yellow gold submariner) has to be blue. The sunburst blue against that gold just goes together so well

I'd get the black, only because I have a Bluesy. They're both stunners, for sure, and equally as bada$s.

I vote blue. I'm going to own a bluesy one of these days. I think the blue and yellow gold go well together.
