TT blue sub question
I saw a BNIB M series today. I think Rolex has started using the old deeper blue dial again...can anyone confirm that?

I haven't seen a TT Blue Sub in real life for a long time now so I for my part cannot confirm it. If the "baby blue" dial ever existed, I would not be surprised if you see one every now and then, even in the M-series.

Yes, I noticed this before, as well:
Click here... I now own an M-series, and it is definitely darker than a Z-series that I saw at an AD in December...

I was at an AD just before New Year's, and I looked at the new M series TT blue dial. It had the engraved rehaut, but the dial was the same (approximate) shade of blue that the salesman's older (5 year old) TT bluesy was.........
And oh how I'd love a Blue TT! C |

Yep, looks like they went back to the dark blue. But I'm not all too sure just how widespread the lighter blue was, or for how long it was produced. I believe it was suggested that it was really just a minor manufacturing fluke. |
