Datejust 36 dial colours advice

[WatchNutcase]

Blue dial, fluted + jubilee definitely seems the most popular choice especially on social media. I think I might kick the trend though and go with the silver dial for it’s classy look and versatility with strap options.

I’ll try and hold out until spring to see if they release that style for the DJ.

Assuming that isn't added to the lineup, I suppose then the question is: What's your tolerance for a franken-watch? You could always attempt to source a champagne dial/YG hands from the TT version.

Actually, if going that route, I'd be very interested in seeing a stainless DJ with the slate version of the TT RG version (with matching hands).

I wouldn’t go the Franken route lol, I’m sure whatever dial I go with will be amazing.

Blue dial, hands down. The most iconic DJ ever.

Is it? I think the silver / champagne dial probably takes the cake on that one. Blue definitely stunning though.

Matt, if you’re willing to consider two-tone rose gold then these 3 are stunners IMO

Couple years back I got my wife a 126234 blue fluted jubilee. But if it were today Id consider getting the mop diamond dial. I'd still want the blue dial first but mop would come in second.

One reason being you'll likely have other blue or silver dials in the collection in some sort. Other being I'd want a rarer stone dial that's only available on DJ. If I'm not mistaken mop is only available on DJs in the current catalog.

Though a bit feminine, most of the time it looks like a white dial with texture. But if the unusual dials are in for every model, this is something to consider.

I have a date just on the oyster bracelet. To me the jubilee is reserved for presidents.

The president band is different to the jubilee. The jubilee is the quintessential Datejust bracelet
