Rose gold day date advice

What color dial do most people prefer on a rose gold date 40? Green, chocolate , or sunburst ? I know it’s personal preference but just wanted to get some feed back. Roman, ice stick , or sticks ? Green is the most popular but does it match all outfits ? White , silver , and black are safe but it’s so old fashion

Green is definitely the most appealing color combo to the eye. Sundust is a close second for me

I like my Sunburst with Roman. May swap out for Olive when I send it in for service just so I feel like its a new piece.

The preference for the color dial on a rose gold Datejust 40 watch can vary among individuals, and there is no definitive answer as to which color is the most popular. However, I can provide some general information about the options you mentioned:

1. Green: Green dials can add a unique and vibrant touch to the watch, and they have gained popularity in recent years. They can offer a refreshing and distinctive look, but whether it matches all outfits depends on personal style and preference.

2. Chocolate: Chocolate dials are known for their warm and rich tones. They can provide an elegant and sophisticated appearance, which can complement a variety of outfits, especially those with earthy or warm color palettes.

3. Sunburst: Sunburst dials feature a gradient effect, where the color appears to shift and change when light hits it from different angles. This type of dial can add depth and visual interest to the watch, offering a dynamic and eye-catching look.

Regarding the Roman, ice stick, or sticks hour markers, the choice depends on personal taste. Roman numerals give a classic and timeless feel, while stick markers offer a more modern and minimalist aesthetic. Ice stick markers, which are diamond hour markers, can add a touch of luxury and elegance.

Ultimately, the choice of dial color and hour markers comes down to individual style, preference, and the desired look for the watch. It's important to choose something that resonates with your personal taste and complements your wardrobe and overall aesthetic.

They are ALL pretty damn nice imho.

Just pick one and enjoy it. At service time if you get bored of the dial just get RSC to swap it out and you'll feel like you have a new watch.

The sunburst is nice, bu the green is the one.

I wish they made one in rose gold with a sunburst blue dial.

I'm biased, but I love the variations with the chocolate motif dial

The olive green is one of the best looking greens I've seen on a watch
