Diamond or Regular Dial for WG Smurf Sub
I've been thinking about picking up a WG Smurf Sub, and am having trouble deciding on a Serti or a regular dial. I don't consider myself a diamond guy, but the Serti dial seems to give the Smurf Sub that little something extra. What do you guys think?

I owned the 116619, however, the serti dial does have its appeal! If I were to buy another WG Sub I would still go with the regular dial! Good luck!

I just can't make myself like any jewels on the dial, bezel, or case.

On a two-tone Submariner I quite like the actual serti dials with sapphires and diamonds, however, for this particular watch I think I'd rather go with the regular one.

+1 for regular.
I had a regular one - had Rolex swap the face for serti - and regretted it ever since. |

if ur gonna get diamonds, get the YG one....the wg one is for stealth, and subtly that your wearing a 37k peice and not really flashing it off, the diamonds would give away that stealth......so if u want diamonds, go yg
