Just curious...

Hello TRF,

So I was just curious if i was the only one to think about an actual RED sub? Not the extremely cool sub with the text of "submariner" in red but similar to the LV and the 'smurf' but a Red one. Would anybody like that? Has Rolex ever made a watch like that? I am still fairly new to the watch world and was just wondering about your thoughts...

thanks!

black, blue, Serti, and now green dials are the only colors on subs. Have you checked out the Tudor Heritage Black Bay?

Looks like a Christmas tree ornament.

The Tudor Black Bay with the red bezel is cool though.

That's not how the ceramic red would look. It would look nothing like that

Red ceramic insert/bezel with black dial might look cool.

Wow, this is the first time I ever thought a ROLEX looked like an INVICTA.

Not that there's anything wrong with that (kidding...MUCH is wrong with that!)

If it was a deep cranberry red like the Black Bay bezel, then maybe. Maybe.

After my post with the red colamariner there seems to be less interest.
As far as I know, this is a real Rolex, or there is some type like that.
But correct me if I'm wrong!
