Daydate green dial

Hey everybody I can’t decide which one? Is it worth adding the diamonds?

I don't mind diamond markers but on the bezel is too much. Ladies only IMO.

Go with what you like. I love gold and diamonds but feel the diamond bezel is a little too much as stated above

I'd stick to fluted bezel, personally. Diamond hour markers are nice.

Are you female? Diamonds imo skew slightly female but I realize some males enjoy the bling. Nobody does a diamond dial better than Rolex other than possibly Patek...

Just showed this to my wife, she said great look for her but not for me lol...

I'd go fluted, but the diamond bezel would fit in nicely in Miami!

I personally like diamonds on the PT DD. For people who things it's too blingy or effeminate, you're probably buying the wrong watch generally. People who've earned enough to unload $100K on a watch should be comfortable with whatever they do.

Not a big diamond fan. Certainly not on the bezel (IMHO)

The bezel diamonds are much less subdued in person compared to images online. You should see an example of diamond bezel first if you are considering it.

Not for me, but it's your watch. For the extra $13k, you could find a decent SS sport model.

I myself am not a fan of the diamond bezel--completely moot as well, though, as I couldn't/shouldn't afford a Day-Date anyhow... If you think it looks nice rather than flashy or girly, however, then for sure do it. They're your bucks, after all.
