Blue sub

I have been looking at the watch below and I cannot find much info or pricing on it. I may run to an AD this weekend, but I wanted to see if you guys could help. I was hoping that it is priced the same as the standard SS Date Sub. Anybody have one or know what they are priced at?

No if that is the new white gold Sub it comes in at about $27K, now some say years ago Rolex produced a SS Blue dial for the Asian market, but I for one have never seen one on the re-sale market. If you don't want to drop $27,0000 on a White Gold Rolex, check out the used Tudor Subs that are going for 2.5K to 5K on the used market. Some are always available on ebay.

I think Karis is more correct as the new 116619 retails at $ 29,850

You can also hold out for the ceramic SS Sub that's due in 2010.

I would say they will NOT offer a blue dial/bezel because then why would people pay for the WG??? This is the intention to get you to love it so you buy the gold one...IMO that is...

Well, Ive never liked TT or gold jewlery all together....I really like the Sub. May end up going for the green if I can find one.

On the bright side, you should be able to get a discount from an AD.
