White gold sub still a smurf dial?

I was just poking around the Rolex website and the pictures of the white gold sub look like a sunburst dial, not the smurf

This is a good question. Renders aside I don’t think the production model has ever changed. Or perhaps this is a very recent (and unpublicized) update made to make some differentiation between a to-be-released ss blue sub. (Ibtl)

I noticed that too. On the Rolex site, it looks like a much darker, richer shade of blue. Actually, it looks stunning...

If it is different I really like. I was never a fan of the smurf dial

Same dial. Just different lighting and graphic image adjustment. In darker
lighting, the 116619 can appear darker. But mine has never looked that dark.
