Would you buy Platinum SDc with Blue Dial/Bezel if it was Available

Hello All

If Rolex came out with a platinum SDc with blue dial/bezel would you consider buying one?

The blue would not be that smurf blue but the blue used on the new Tudor Black Bay.

I think it would be an absolutely stunning watch.

No, but I'd seriously consider a Pt Sub with ice blue dial and graphite gray bezel.

No, absolutely not. Tool watches should remain in SS

I would think hard if it had a glacier dial but probably would go with the BLRO for a white precious metal watch.

They make the Sub in solid gold...Rolex can and has produced tool watches in precious metals...

That Yacht Master II looks amazing!

No - president 110%, iconic Daytona fair enough, new movement sky dweller in time but let's put things in perspective. SD or anything else for that matter no.
