Shiny Two Tone Submariner 116613 LB NEW?

I was just in Hong Kong a few days ago and saw this new shiny blue dial on the ceramic TT Submariner.

It seems like it's from the previous version before ceramic came out.

Anyone know if this is out in Canada?

I have heard that the tt sub is going back to the original blue.. I thought this was a rumor . But looking at your pic , i may be mistaken... My tt sub seems like the lighter blue ....

Welcome to the forum.

The TT Submariner 116613 now has the sunburst dial from the 16613. It was introduced at Baselworld 2013. I must say the ceramic bezel insert on the sample in your photo matches the new dial better than others I've seen. Very nice photo and watch

These pictures were taken by me in Hong Kong, while I was bored, walking around, looking at watches.

I was very surprised to see a shiny blue two tone submariner. Fell in love with it, being able to see different shades of blue in different lighting as well.

I recently about 2 weeks ago purchased the ceramic blue dial two tone. I haven't picked up the watch yet from the store yet. I am going back to the store tomorrow and going to try and talk to them about switching to this shiny blue dial. I really hope they can do it for me.
