New Eisenkiesel Day Date is Fire!

I looked through a bunch of threads and I am quite surprised that this one isn’t being discussed at all, unless I missed it. I think this is absolutely stunning. Currently out of my league, but wow, something of a grail to me and quite unique!

What does everyone else think of this one?

As with all DDs, it’s a very personal decision and never a bad one in the bunch. I’d personally much prefer a lighter brighter pastel dial for such a serious watch or even a black onyx or blue lapis or even red carnelian. Similar to the older 70s 80s styles.

I like the diamonds on this one. If and when I'm able to attain a piece like this, I will love looking down at the diamonds. I understand where you're coming from though. Wouldn't mind seeing this dial without the diamonds to simplify it a bit.

Yeah I always like seeing more dial variety. I personally like rose gold, but like seeing cool and unique dials on all the different metals.

Yeah I don't think there will be many real world pics of this one, especially not yet, but I can't wait to see any when they do pop up!

It's up there, but I think it's in line with the rest of the Day Date lineup.

Agreed. This one just looks amazing to me. There are a lot of good and great combos in the Day Date lineup. This is one of many. A lighter dial or black onyx or blue would surely look amazing as well. Would love to see something in red as well. I just seem to have a thing for chocolate-y watches! They feel and look so warm.

I love it. I do agree that it would be preferable with numerals to the baguettes.

Yes, this one looks gorgeous but the price seems high.

Now, I don't know which one I should get between RG Olive dial and this one.

I actually had a thread on it on release day but got lost in the hundreds of threads going on that day.

https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=797776

I love it personally. Wish they would sell it with standard markers instead of diamonds, but it does look great.

I think it looks incredible! Personally, I’d pair it with the diamond bezel to match the dial.

I should be happy with my DD40 olive, but this is very tempting. Not sure if I need another.

That’s a very factual point actually. This name would not have been chosen by Hans Wilsdorf himself. Too hard to pronounce in English. Is pronounced differently through most European languages.

I bet it’s gorgeous in person though.

Prefer Choco dial baguettes if we’re talking RG.

This one looks like lava cake.
