Yellow Gold

I like how understated a Smurf is, but I really like how a full YG Sub looks!

YG for me.

I really like both, but prefer the WG, and would go that route if I was making that choice now.

You could always meet in the middle and get a YG smurf.

Smurf is the best and best looking Rolex ever made

It looks classy too

YG is flash but no class. Sorry

The wonderful Smurf left a strong impression on me and would be my choice. Love the subtlety of the white gold combined with the particular blue shade of the dial & bezel. Just felt like magic on my wrist. That didn't happen so much fobr the YG Sub. Now, each person has their own preference, so take your time in determining which version speaks to you. Good luck! Cheers!

I love both. The YG is perfect for weekend wear, but I don't think I could get away with it at work. The WG on the otherhand is equally amazing and good for everyday wear. I guess it's a matter of whether you want something in your face or subtle.

Can’t go wrong either way. It all depends on your existing collection. I went with WG because I own YG piece already.

Smurf for me. No contest. It doesn't get any more subtly luxurious.

But I'm not the OP. I can't tell other people what they like.

I love both but only own the WG but mine has diamonds so I get the pizazz without the flash of YG but.........I really love the YG with sunburst dial. If I go YG, it's would be a different reference of Rolex.

I personally like WG but the YG Sub really pops and never gets boring. The guy I used to go charter fishing with had one...and man it really looks great outdoors with that blue dial.
