It looks like Rolex is introducing a new model/dial color on August 4th. Some guys on the rolex forums pointed out some of the web code and it mentioned a blue dial Deepsea. I'm anxious to see if it is true, what shade of blue that it'll be.

That'd be surprising. I can't imagine Rolex releasing a blue Deepsea.

The source code has since been changed by Rolex, it looked very convincing. I wonder if it will be the same purple-ish color as the WG smurf. I'm not a fan of that shade of blue, hopefully it's slightly darker.

A darker blue, almost navy would look really nice.

Is the bezel going to be blue as well or just the dial?

Well that's not at all what I was thinking. I have to say I'm not impressed.

Rolex forums seem to universally hate it - no surprise there with anything significantly different. It's an interesting concept, and I would certainly take a look at one in person, the biggest issue for me is actually the shade of green that is used.

That's part of the reason I don't like it, I think the colors do not work well, but like you said I will have to see it in person to make a final decision. I was hoping it was going to be blue dial, black bezel or even blue on blue. I get the concept of it, however it just doesn't look right IMO.
