Serti dial rubies?

Hello guys, the serti (sultan) dial for Submariner only comes with blue rubies at 6, 9 and 12 markers right? or do they come in black too for a black bezel?

Not sure but wanted to say, the Sub in your profile pic is one of the best looking Subs made. Good luck with the search.

These are OLD discontinued dials.
Submariners had the Sapphire & Diamond dial,
the GMT-II came with a Ruby & Diamond dial

Blue sapphires are colored by a combination of the trace elements iron and titanium.

There is no such thing as black sapphires
