Two tone watch or diamond dial SS

If you had a few extra bucks to bling out your Rolex would you go two tone or diamond dial? I know most will say neither and put it towards a new watch but let’s take that option off of the table. Out of these 2 choices which would you pick? Any dial color or color gold. The pictures are for visual examples.

TT. I actually own it. I'm not a diamond guy.

For me this is the lesser of two evils, but being forced to choose it's TT. (I like the dial on the TT but would go with rose gold)

TT for a class look. Wimbledon dial for sure. But with jubilee bracelet.

This IS my watch. I ditched my first SS Rolex after 4 weeks - too dull in comparison.

Diamond dial is only noticeable close by, so I is more a personal enjoyment thing. TT is noticeable from a few feet away, so for bling and public’s pleasure, TT.

Diamond dial and Jubilee bracelet. If you fancy TT? How about rose gold with a silver dial?

You can have both. I suggest to get a TT with diamond.

These are two different things entirely. TT is visible from 10 meters and diamonds barely visible for others. So it depends on the effect you want. I’d go for the diamonds.

Diamond dial for me easily. Never really gave it much thought until my wife just got the DJ with MOP dial and diamonds and it looks amazing. Honestly, I wouldn't mind giving the watch a try for a day or two.

TT... I had the Wimbledon, and would have kept it if I didn't need to sell to get into another watch I wanted more.

I was torn between that one and the diamond rhodium. As much as I loved the Wimbledon I just didn’t know if it would go with everything as I was looking for a 1 watch do all. I got the rhodium diamond dial as it sung to me
More.

Only Issue is that it’s almost impossible to tell the time on. But who buys a 11k watch these days to tell the time? :
Smacks head! Lol
