Date Just Mint Green - Any Long Term News?

Hi Everybody,

Periodically I think about adding a DateJust w/a smooth bezel and an oyster bracelet to my collection - I'm particularly taken with the mint green. For those of you that have one - how do you find its versatility over time? Lot of wrist time? OK with most wardrobes?

Love my mint green dial 36mm DJ.
Wears perfect with any wardrobe attire.
The green changes a lot in different lighting conditions, moving from grey to vibrant green.

Smooth bezel and Oyster bracelet would give a more sporty vibe, but still wearable on any occasion.

I do rotate with other watches.

I think the Mint green dial is the best of the DateJust options (now that the Olive Palm dial is discontinued)

Wow that domed oyster palm DJ is so damn nice. Incredible duo for sure. Very well done.

So that's interesting. I was thinking about a wimbledon as well - if I go 36. I really like the look of it ( always have ) But I was thinking it would be a bit "flash" in some circumstances... non?

I don't have a mint green dial. but I was offered it twice from two different ADs. I am not a fan of that shade of green. I think the Olive Palm Dial looks a lot better. The green on the mint dial reminds me of puke green. I do not like the Mint Dial because of this. The green looks sickly.

It’s a gorgeous dial. With the SS jubilee it’s a very stylish watch.

The mint green dial is so lovely. Rolex did a great job with this dial! Looks great regardless of the bezel/bracelet combo.

Photos don’t really give it justice. It can look completely different depending on the lighting. Sometimes I look down simply to see the time and I have to do a double take as it’s so pretty.

I noticed under the bright lights of all the Rolex ADs, it sort of looks flat or even washed out.

In reality, it’s not at all.

If you choose this as your DJ, you won’t be disappointed.

Since mine is two tone, yes it’s flashy, but I don’t mind. Since it’s on the Oyster bracelet, it’s also sporty.:

Just a observation looking at all the pics all the watches are gleaming and look pristine. What is everyone doing to make it still look new? Mine is full of scratches and looks dull ��
