It'd be a vintage (1970s) watch at this point in time, but then Subs haven't changed all that much so as one would readily know the difference by a picture.

At this point, the WG is the only blue being sold specifically that way. It's possible however to buy a SS black one and buy a replacement dial and bezel insert to shift to blue. That's how this one came to be. (http://www.timeandgems.com/rolex-men...iner-5103.html)

The extensive customizability of a Rolex is one reason why I shy away from them on the used watch market. Another is the rampant fakes that are also out there. I just don't have the time or patience to deal with the consequence of being taken by some slick scoundrel. And I certainly don't have that kind of money to just lose.

All the best.
