DD40 rose gold with olive dial

Does anyone own this piece? If so I’d love some reviews and some wrist shots. It’s becoming a serious favourite of mine.

I saw someone wearing one last week, went to try it on today, and am now smitten. I was too stunned to remember to take a picture when I tried it on, so sorry that I can’t help on the picture front.

This one looks to be a RG with an Olive dial. Perhaps the op can confirm.

One of my favourite watches:
Simply stunning. Comfortable to wear, very stylish and that green anniversary dial is amazing, very vivid according to light. Even though it is full rose gold, it is not too loud. Rose gold is now my favourite full gold material. This is The Watch for me—no complaints. 5/5, 10/10.
I published some pics here once I got the watch at the end of August. Now I am having trouble sharing pics because Tapatalk and new iPhone sre not working together... So sorry for this, but you can find some pics from my earlier threads.

Great reference; I’ve had mine for quite a while now and it still feels very special when worn. The bracelet is comfortable, very comfortable..however it does lack on the fly adjustability. The dual itself is the nicest green Rolex offers or any other brand as a matter of opinion. It gets the job done.

It’s a beautiful watch and dial for sure... If you love RG. I have the WG version, but I choose WG or YG over RG.

I would mention the contrast of the rose hands against the green dial is not good in dimmer lighting. The white gold green roman version is far more legible.

Nothing is hard to get. If you have $$$ you can get ANY watch ANY time.

Obviously. Be realistic. It's a given that I'm referring to RRP from an AD.

You can buy these anywhere. I just walked into an AD and bought one, my friend did the same and there is one sitting in my local AD as we speak.

These are expensive watches not like SS watches. Not many people will buy them

Hahahahaaha - thats funny. Old school man.

My old man is exactly the same. He thinks WG/RG and Plat are all rubbish.

In his eyes gold is YG.
