Rolex DJ 41mm Wimbledon RG, YG or SS?

I just received a call from the AD where I've an existing relationship. I bought a TT DJ28mm and a YM from him in 2021.

They've a Rolex 126333 Datejust 41 “Wimbledon Dial” Oyster Band with fluted bezel and called me to check on my interest as I expressed an interest in the Wimbledon dial.

I am torn between the jubilee and the oyster bracelet and am leaning towards the RG. What are your thoughts on the TT YG oyster bracelet on a DJ41mm Wimbledon?

For me it would be 126300. I like the simplicity and dial of this watch.

I went with the TT RG fluted on Jubilee. It’s a great piece and something you don’t see everyday.

i went with yellow on oyster but it took a bit of time to come to that decision. rose gold two tone is subdued and at times looks like steel so it depends on whether you prefer that or something more visible but at the same time, along with the rootbeer, it's the best two tone rose gold model out there, i just prefer yellow more. there's no wrong decision here though because all of them are great pieces

I just bought mine last month; smooth bezel and oyster. I love it. In my opinion, this is much more casual than the fluted and jubilee, which is what I prefer.

I swapped out the oyster bracelet for a rubber b just the other day.

I went down and bought the YG Wimbledon. They had a RG Wimbledon that was reserved for another customer and they only had the YG Wimbledon for me.

I wore it and found that it talked to me and this could be handle down to my children with the YG fluted bezel. Wimbledon dial is definitely one of the popular DJ out there in the secondary market. My wife commented its too flashy, and definitely not a watch that I can wear it daily.

I went with oyster and smooth but I also equally like jubilee and smooth.

I do not like fluted with the Wimbledon dial. The simpler smooth bezel compliments the dial much better imo.

I prefer SS but also like either RG/YG...as long as the bezel is smooth.

I had that watch in two tone with yellow gold. I traded it in for a DJII, fluted bezel, oyster bracelet which is more my style. I can wear a gold case, but the bracelet is too much for me. But that’s me. Many people rock full gold with ease.

Just noticed you got the YG. Enjoy it. Everyone has different taste. No right or wrong.
