I kinda like that too but I always wanted a "classic" YG Day Date. To me that was the Champagne dial. I was originally set to get the YG DD40 Champ/Romans but last minute changed to the RG Olive. When my son was born in 2018 I got the platinum. Now I find myself thinking about the YG still.

Beautiful collection. I would have a very similar one if I had more money, had no self control and wasn't married to a woman that would put the kibosh on it. But a guy can dream . . .

if i could wear 40 i would've gotten the rg olive because when i first saw that watch it was instantly the one so i see why you changed your mind too, but with 36 i figured just go with the classic

Why do you say that? Is this model in high demand? It certainly is lovely.

I just ordered a DD at MSRP.

If you are going the diamond dial, the black diamond dial in YG looks great.
