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!

There is something about the White gold (it looks like Sugar Powder) and that beautiful Blue...Man!

I would only wear this on VERY SPECIAL OCCASIONS. It would be displayed on a museum case in my TV room.

Looks like there's a line forming!

The word 'grail' gets thrown around a lot, but this watch is the most deserving IMHO of all the current-production references.

Haven't really heard anyone say anything bad about it, Rich.

The only downside to the watch seems to be the price, and IMO it makes it that-much-more desirable since you won't be seeing it often.

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.....

The bezel is the same but the dial has more of a metallic/iridescent look to it than the WG.
