Salmon dial woman only?

Hey there forum,

First time poster and Rolex newb. I'm interested in buying a Rolex and went to see a few this weekend. I saw these three and was wondering if men wear salmon colored/pinkish dials. I know its a personal preference, but was just wondering what the general consensus is among Rolex wearers.

Here's a pic.

Thanks.

I think it would look ok on a guy, though it may not match everything like a silver, white, gold, or black dial would.

Great question; I have wondered about this myself as I like the salmon dial on the Airking best. I believe anyone can wear the pink dial. I certainly would not hesitate to strap it on my wrist. Like others have said, choose and wear what you like.

It's not pink, it's salmon

I think salmon is a lovely dial color. The OP date is kind of underrated in my opinion, especially with the WG bezel. I enjoy my salmon Tudor from time to time. Good luck with your decision!

I had a TT Datejust SS/RG with a pink dial, Roman Numerals, ref. 116231. I must say I thought it was stunning. I just traded it for a Daytona. You can find it in the classifieds if you search for that reference for some high quality pics. I'm kind of missing it. A very classic watch. I'm a 6'1", 200 lb. male, so real men do wear pink!
