I believe that Sub is all white gold ..... there is no stainless steel.

I think he meant ceram (ceramic) and typoed.

The WG Sub is a great piece, no stainless. You can get one from one of our reputable TRF resellers and save a bundle on both the price and the tax.

They have a feel on your wrist like no other Sub (possible exception the YG!), one great watch!

Is that blue the same as on the TT ceramic sub? It seems lighter in pictures I see?

I've been wondering the same thing. I have yet to see them side by side at an AD. Every picture i see the WG looks lighter than the TT.....

emporers new clothes ,,, blue looks cheap and flat , to my eye its too pale , it would look nicer with the older darker more vibrant blue.
prob not a popular opinion , but , its what i think

Blue dial/bezel :the color of lakes/ocean water - what an approppriate color combo for a diving watch .

If the Rolex official corporate color were purple instead of green , we'd have had purple dial/bezeled/hands in their "50 year old" models and one wonders what that demand would be like .

One of my dream ones but cannot really afford for the time being. Looks much better than the green sub-C.

If they did, it would probably be their " grail " version like this beautiful WG Sub-C : a $30K WG GMT IIC with (finally) a ceramic Pepsi bezel , just to tweek the legions of Pepsi lovers who assumed it would have come as a future version of the SS.

Love the subtlety of this one, seeing the sub and then noticing it's the blue WG is sort of like noticing a Z4 then seeing the M badge, one little touch that has a significantly deeper implication than it lets on at a glance.
