AbqRolexFan · 31 August 2013, 02:41 PM

White gold for sure!

kilyung · 31 August 2013, 02:45 PM

No question

heatscore · 31 August 2013, 02:47 PM

I dont have a pic, but I say go for the white gold.

Myocardiet · 31 August 2013, 02:59 PM

Thanks!

I feel that the yg is a little bit to musch 'screamy' for me. I believe also that the wg Will become My cop of Tea.

Nothing wrong with YG either. I just prefer the GMTIIc in that metal.

My choice. One of them!

Jack T · 31 August 2013, 03:32 PM

Both are beyond my reach for now, but, without a doubt...WG !

Andad · 31 August 2013, 04:22 PM

Gold is yellow so YG or SS for me.

jedinite · 31 August 2013, 04:23 PM

wg sub

samsmart · 31 August 2013, 04:25 PM

Trying to flip my way up to the wg. Hopefully this time next year I will have some wg wrist shots for you guys.

This man's a genius.....I concur, gold is golden yellow! What is the obsession w/ WG???? Looks like SS to the naked eye....bah humbug...same thing w/
platinum, same thing, looks like SS to the naked eye......bah humbug again.
Auric G. & I prefer YG.
P.S. They wrote a song about gold......Goldfinger...it isn't whitegoldfinger or platinumfinger.

T. Ferguson · 31 August 2013, 04:33 PM

Let me throw one more complication into your decision. It is my understanding that the YG (along with the TT) is now coming in the new retro cobalt blue sunburst dial while the WG model will continue to come with the flat blue dial. Right now you might find the YG in both of these dials but just something to consider if you have a preference for one dial over the other.

The thing about the WG is that its not up in your face, get My drift?
Yes its looks like a ss so what? - thats the cool thing about thr WG more rare and less bling bling!

Trust me!

If I had a WG watch would I tell others it was SS because I was embarrased about its cost?

Or would I wear a YG watch and I not have to say anything?

ben67 · 31 August 2013, 08:31 PM

I saw the yg sub with sunburst dial in tha AD today and it looks awesome. The best term I have heard for the WG sub is "Stealth Wealth" in that only those who know what it is will know what it is worth. Otherwise it looks like most other SS watches. That being said I dont know if I would wear a full gold sub in white or yellow.

Cc1966 · 31 August 2013, 08:38 PM

White gold is very classy for a Sub. Good luck...

jolimont · 31 August 2013, 08:41 PM

16618 yellow ftw

OrangeSport · 31 August 2013, 08:49 PM

Yellow gold, I think. But, in gold, I prefer the GMT.

kvorstian · 31 August 2013, 08:49 PM

GMTIIc YG (I prefer the green dial) is one of the most stunning watches I have ever laid eyes on.

But if you're getting a sub, definitely the WG.

munshpe · 31 August 2013, 08:58 PM

Gold is yellow and steel and white gold look too much the same at first sight. Yellow in my opinion.

nickng · 31 August 2013, 09:37 PM

Both are just as beautiful. Getting Either won't go wrong.

Here are both Subs

fisherman79 · 31 August 2013, 09:52 PM

I think gold should be yellow or rose. The only white color i like is Platina.
altough with platina and white gold its almost the same story, why pay that much extra for platina when there is white gold.
The only thing i can think of is that platina is a much harder material than white gold. Its much harder to shape it into the right form also.

SearChart · 31 August 2013, 10:18 PM

I like 'em both!

travisb · 31 August 2013, 10:19 PM

WG gets my vote.

KELLY123 · 31 August 2013, 10:41 PM

For your 1st gold watch you have no choice - go for the luxury of YG.
I have 2 YG and now I'm going for WG or Platty but thats because I dot want anyone to know its gold.
