Can you get the blue dial and bezel combo in steel, or only in white gold? The brochure only seems to have pictures of steel subs in black or green.

Steel only comes in black and green. Man if they did it in blue...

Is that only the current models, or have they done blue for the steel models in the past?

Blue would be awesome in SS!

Blue is the best, it's not right that blue and SS are not offered together

You can get blue in SS but it won't be 100% authentic.

I've seen a few places put an aftermarket dial and bezel on an otherwise "real" SS Sub.

Kind of "ruins" the watch to some people but to each their own.

Something tells me if they did offer it, sales of the white gold blue sub would become almost non existent.

Isn't there an old Sub - not sure how old - with a Blue Bezel?

I like the fact that the blue and white gold are together. On most of the Rolex models (current) have blue dial/ and or bezels associated with some sort of white gold white gold and something else combo. I like it that way. That blue is very nice and isn't a usual Rolex color like green is. So it being blue (SubC), white gold is only fitting. I would love to own that watch. When I get older and wealthier. (I am young so I have alot of time) I will be looking into that $34,000 beauty. Probably will be well over that by the time I go for one though.

I believe Tudor made one once upon a time.

If my memory is correct at one time there was a blue SS Sub sold only in Japan.

azguy · 5 January 2012, 09:53 AM

If I could find a blue Tudor snowflake that would work but good luck sourcing one of those

Correct!

And I thought for sure that it had a blue dial too.
