Tried this on today

Unlike the Pepsi white gold, this watch stands by itself. How do you feel about the blue on blue? To much color or just enough?

I also tried this on recently. I love it. May be a little biased as blue is my favorite color.

Think it’s a fantastic watch, dig the blue as well. Personally you can’t go wrong with that one

One of my all time favorites.

I bought it a few years ago and wear it often.

I'm leaning toward the blue versus the Hulk for me. Your watch really tickled my eyes.

Stunning! I really like it, if only the 6 digit Sub wore better/more comfortable. Don't get me wrong, I have a Hulk, and only reason I haven't sold yet it is that phenomenal green dial.

Incredible watch, absolutely love the the blue dial with the white gold. Just wish they would put that same dial and bezel on a SS so I could afford it! ��

If you have to ask that question it probably is not for you. For those of us who knew the answer, it is the pinnacle of blueness.

The wg sub is in a class by itself. It has been on my list for a while. Might spoil myself with one next year.

I’m not really a pm guy as I’m hard on things but if I get a pm Rolex, that is the one it will be! Gorgeous watch!

Great picture. I can totally see the white gold shine in that pic. Normally I see those and can't really tell the difference from SS.

Since you asked too much blue, like the kermit to much green .

Pops but so understated too. Absolute sleeper, most punters will just think its a sub.

The blue shade is not attractive to me at least on pictures, would have to see one in person

Too much blue is better than too much green.

The blue looks superb and its a color that will last and be in fashion your entire life. Go for it.

It’s a great watch, but I don’t and wouldn’t do PM in a sport watch. For me, PM is dress watch only material.

Great watch. I owned one once and enjoyed it. Sometimes I wish I still owned it.
