Sunburst Dials: Show Your Beauties !
Recently got my TOG back from RSC with a new blue sunburst dial and am loving it, but very hard to get a nice picture!

Was searching on the forum and could not find a thread dedicated to them, so let’s have this one with Rolex (Bluesy’s, DJ’s, OP’s, Daytona's, DD’s, YM’s, etc) as well as any other brands

Here a few had owned over the years:

Out of curiosity, ever consider a hand-switch? Or prefer the contrast of the WG hands?

Overall, reminds me of the current OP silver dial/YG accents (without being as in-your-face as the previous generation white grape OP dial).

Decided just to use the same WG hands to have a better contrast against the SS only case

Yes, the Brilliants large and the Baguettes are extra long. You can see that the diamond at 5-minute position is not lined up due to the diamond size and the Day cutout. It came from the factory like this.
