TT is a great looking Datejust. Black dials always stand out against a yellow bezel.

Just got this a couple of weeks ago. Like the black dials it stands out, but at the same time it is a bit more discrete with green numerals. I really love it.

I like the tt DJ with a blue or white dial and as you stated a Jubilee bracelet and fluted bezel.
For all ss I like the black dial best. I happen to have a tuxedo dial on my ss.

Does anyone know why Rolex doesn't offer more dial options as they have done in the past?

Tapestry, linen, colored dials and so forth?

Gotta be those green Romans. It looks weird after you stare at it for a while but becomes extremely charming at the same time

Seems to me if not hung up with buying new there are nearly limitless dial variants. Another to consider is the jubilee dials. Although I'm having mine replaced with the original linen which I think is a spectacular dial.



On the other hand the blue baton dial may well be my favorite. It looks great on any watch I've seen it on; mine is on the DJII.

OK, here is another variant of the linen dial back from the watch maker and replacing the Jubilee above. I like it better than the black.

Rhodium is definitely worth considering. In my opinion, it and the blue roman dial work the best for the 116234. As for the 116233, I would go with he white roman.
