I like it a lot, although I like the brighter blue of the ceramic smurf bezel more.

Love this look! Wish the inserts were easier to source! I also love how this thread kicks up every year or so, haha!

What a nice mod, looks so good. After seeing these pics I am now in the hunt for a blue/silver font bezel insert.

Have to say I prefer Steve's Shark, and I'm not even a fan of the Sub-C

It was such an easy change, and the blue goes so well with the LV's maxi dial.

In keeping with this watch's F serial and its original green insert, I sourced a blue insert with the flat 4 ;-)
