I'm all the way from Warden to Sheppard buddy! Such a long ride, but at least it helps the environment by not driving...

Last 3 weeks, I was bought this model 116200 black concentrick with domed bezel.
But I like your fluted bezel.

hey, I am considering the same watch model and undecide on the dial. I am unsure how the concentric dial present in the photos. Is it better in real life? thanks

Not sure what you mean by is it better in real life - I think it looks sweet in the photos

It's different in every light. Sometimes you can't even see the circles in it depending on how bright the light is and the angles.

In non direct sun light it looks like a nice flat blue and the numbers pop right off the bezel.

I love it.

Great looking watch! My SuperOcean has the same kind of dial, and I love it! I also really REALLY love the roullette date wheel, it gives the watch a ton of character. Congrats on a nice timepiece!

Nice Watch!! I almost bought the exact same watch except in 2-tone rose gold. Love the numbers and textured face. Nice choice! The first rolex is always a special purchase and one you will always remember. I'm sure you'll have ti for life and hand it down to the next generation. Cheers!

That's the plan my friend - I love this watch in TT RG as well. It's like a sexier version of what I've got

Both look great to be honest and the norm is usually to go with domed when you decide on an Oyster Bracelet.

That being said, I really like the DJ II but found it just too big for my current tastes but that is what opened me up to the Oyster and Fluted combo.

It's casual enough for everyday but also has that extra *bling* when I dress up

Go try them on in person - you'll know instantly what is right for you.
