Absolutely beautiful. I think the coke is the nicest. Followed by a close second with the smurf.

I cannot tell a real sub from a fake one. But I would never buy something fake. Does not matter how it looks like. But how you feel about it... I love all three colours of gold... my favorite? White gold Daytona... The king.

This may be " tmi " but I own numerous undergarments from La Perla.

The pricing of a thong or bra from there may be outrageous for what you can get a Victoria Secret or even Target and on top of that who would know what you're wearing as well???

Why spend do much?? Because it makes me feel daaaam good when I wear it

Wristshot? Or the equivalent

I understand that there’s a rule somewhere that we wont believe it till there’s a wristshot.

And to answer the question - because some appreciate subtlety over ostentatious displays.

CRM114 · 17 September 2018, 11:27 PM

Because a white gold watch still allows one to teleport between any of the Nine Realms same as a gold gold watch, but is more appropriate than gold gold for dealing with Peoples who accept subjugation in a docile manner instead of the usual revolts and rebellion where one must more aggressively lord things over them as a reminder of who's boss.

Thats like an LV bag you get in canvas vs leather. Its still got LV LV LV LV LV all over it.

af_schulten · 18 September 2018, 02:33 AM

Waiting for the day Rolex releases a SS Blue bezel, blue dial SubC...but would they when people pay for the WG version? I hope so, as it'll fly to the top of my wanted list!

tbonesteak · 18 September 2018, 02:39 AM

Let's see, most people pay $20k for this:

when they can have this for $28k if they're resourceful:

GolfPunk · 18 September 2018, 02:43 AM

White gold is a completely different colour to SS or Platinum.

I hear you but this "stealth wealth" is all on a relative basis.

If you're out wearing a solid YG Sub with a blue dial, people will definitely notice the watch. It's almost hard not to given the size, color combination, reflective sunburst dial. To the untrained eye, many may see a WG Sub and quickly dismiss it for "just another Rolex" or "a Sub".

T01 · 18 September 2018, 02:48 AM

You get the feel and weight of PM without the show of YG or RG. An excellent option IMO.

Not sure if people notice my YG Sub, but then again I don't care. I bought it for me. Have not had anyone comment on it either. If you think most are "scared or paranoid " about wearing gold in it's natural color, well I certainly am not. The watch is insured, and so is myself. I pity the fool who ever tries to steal it off my wrist.

Vetracer · 18 September 2018, 04:42 AM

I’d have bought a while gold Submariner years ago if only it didn’t have polished centre links.

People buy what they like. The 116619 is a beautiful watch; although I prefer the 116618LB. I can certainly see why this is a popular watch.
