The WG Subc only comes with the Smurf but the YG now has the sunburst blue.

^^ Serg's picture above was precisely the reason why I wanted to trade my Smurf tt for the sunburst.

I prefered the flat blue too.. but like the sunray dial more and more. Well, there is no bad choice: the flat matches the bezel, and the sunray adds some nice reflects.

I have the flat blue TT and love it. That would be mu choice. I honestly did not like it at first having had the older model sunburst first. The flat blue grew on me and matches perfectly with the ceramic bezel.

Only the WG model kept the flat blue. YG model has switched to sunburst.

Not crazy at all... I prefer the flat blue too and that's the version I bought for my wife.
