Stainless steel Smurf

Is this a “Frankenwatch” or were there blue dial SS Subs in the current 6 digit Submariner iteration?

This is ugly AF
Bezel has white paint spilling out of the numbers, dial is terrible, and they PCL'd the bracelet except around the crown...

There is no ss Smurf offering from factory. But there are mod SubC's with the dial and bezel from the Smurf; some other threads in the forum with information on this regard

At $10.5k, where is the margin? You can't get a factory Sub Date at that price, much less with the added diamond dial and bezel ... after-market or not.

Hard pass.
