TT sub C with diamond markers?

I think that's what I saw at an AD. Has anyone else seen one or am I going crazy?

No, you're perfectly sane. They're called "Serti" Subs and you can google them!

Nice, I think I might be tempted to buy one. Or do diamonds look too girly?

While the commercial states " diamonds are a girls best friend", they are just fine for men too.

I have a Diamond Dial DJ and they are great! Not over the top for guys. IMO, Diamonds under the crystal are OK but I would draw the line on Diamond bezels and cases etc.

Wow that is nice. I saw some pics of one over on the galleries forum. What's the going price for the sub c serti TT gold/SS in the States? I think it was a tad over HK$100,000 here in HK.

If I could spend $13k on a watch right now I would buy the black SubC with serti dial. I think they look great!

The silver dial is mine, an F series from 2004 and the Blue dial is my newphews new ceramic version. Sorry that the pictures of the new ceramic version are not so good. I only had my cell phone with me.

I believe the current TT Sub C only comes with blue and black dials, either with or without diamond markers.

The earlier, non-ceramic TT version had grey and champagne gold dials as additional options with/without sapphires as well. I'm sure that in time, these choices will appear on the ceramic model...

Anyway, they all look great!

Serti dials look pretty cool on both Subs and YMs, IMO!

As I know it, it means "insert" of the gems into the face.
