Great shot! The matte dial is awesome. The SubC does not look the same, it has a glossy dial.

More matte love...

I love the Matte dial!

I think I would like Rolex to sanction a Matte dial on the Sub...

Honestly, I didn't even read the entire thread. I was referencing the other dumpster fire of a thread on the same topic. Where even the meaning of what the word confirmed might be in the context of the thread. It was an attempt at humor. I apologize.
