Is anybody else interested in one? I had the smurf and it was just a little too smurfy. I love the dial on my YG Sunburst. I like the contrast between the bezel & dial vs. same color.

Do you think they'll eventually change it or leave the 116619 unique? Maybe Basel 2017? Who would buy one? I think I would.

Don't get me wrong, I really liked the smurf. Just wasn't quite there after getting the YG Sunburst dial.

I wish I had the cash for this and the BLRO. Both are stunning watches. You're right though, that Blue dial is just amazing.

AK797 · 18 January 2017, 08:45 AM

Would be cool, another idea is a graduated dial like the DB, maybe from dark to a lighter blue. Would be interesting and keeping it distinct from the YG.

Cerachrom12 · 18 January 2017, 08:48 AM

If the WG Sub had the blue sunburst dial, it would be a winner.
The pastel blue shade is a deal breaker for me, and I will not buy one.

Danny83 · 18 January 2017, 08:49 AM

That would be a cool option.

ap1 · 18 January 2017, 09:46 AM

I feel the same way, flipped smurf. Would add your creation

psv · 18 January 2017, 09:55 AM

I would love a WG Sub with a sunburst blue dial. Sign me up.

Bucket list ...

cool idea

nikesupremedunk · 18 January 2017, 11:43 AM

I would like to see one but I'm actually a big fan of the flat blu on the smurf. I hate Rolex for not making it a steel model but I suppose it would be their #1 seller then.

Would be very cool but my grail is the yg sub with blue sunburst dial. Both are beautiful pieces.

Completely agree that the pastel is a deal breaker. It's far to feminine and peacock for me. If it was a sunburst or midnight blue with a matching bezel in white gold I would buy two.

natosub · 21 February 2017, 09:09 AM

I think each dial has its merits, but don't anticipate this change coming anytime soon (personally).

busytimmy · 21 February 2017, 10:41 AM

The smurfyness is what I love about the 619!

gossbeau · 21 February 2017, 10:46 AM

That would be awesome. I like playing with the light on my watches and for that you need a sunburst dial. At the moment I have an Ivory dial which I really like but wish it came out with sunburst as well.

Investr · 21 February 2017, 11:02 AM

Smurf gets a ton of love here, but I've just never fallen in love with the blue dial color. Sunburst would be a home run!

Me too

bluebeamer · 21 February 2017, 12:27 PM

i'd buy it if it was sunburst. don't really like the flat blue.

KBM · 21 February 2017, 12:46 PM

Sunburst is beautiful, but the WG sub is very unique with its unmistakable "wet" blue dial. Gorgeous.

anothernewphone · 21 February 2017, 01:59 PM

I like it so much that I searched for the non-sunburst 116613LB for a while. Never found one for sale!
