Why can’t I have all three? It is too hard to pick one!

Had one and loved it. Financial priorities have changed and I can't justify, but the Black and Gold is a perfect balance. No creamy blue insert and less "bling" than the blue.

YG is too flashy for my taste, WG Sub is my grail.

YG & Black for me. I do like the blue but it’s just not for me. The WG smurf does nothing for me at all

YG and Black. It's on my "to get list" ... Hoping the sub gets the new movement before I pull the trigger.

If I had the cash to drop on one of these, I would go for the yellow gold with the blue sunburst dial. That watch is gorgeous.

For me I had to go YG/Black. I thought I would want the blue, but when it came down to it, the black appeared more classy and understated for a gold sports watch. The blue is just a little more loud to my eyes. I have a career where I can wear it everyday if I choose, so I wanted to be a little more subtle. Any sub is a great choice, just find the one that you like best.

The YG Sub with the black dial is my go to watch when I am in my Florida home. It is at its best when you have a little tan.

Yuuuuuupppp! Several folks on the forum influenced me, and it works for me! WG . OP - pick what sings to you. Any gold Rolex is a great decision. And a sub is the iconic Rolex, for me. Happy hunting!
