Wearing in honor of discontinued fluted dial.

Very bummed out I wasn’t able to get one before they got discontinued. Very fun dial/color combos. They’ll be missed for sure.

That dial didn't last too long. I was close between it and the sunray mint green. Oh well. A piece of Rolex history.

Like the dial and IMHO it looks better with smooth bezel and oyster. Look too busy with the fluted bezel and jubilee.JMO

That’s a terrific dial and I think looks great with the fluted bezel.

It’s good Rolex is changing things up a bit with new dial variations on the Datejusts. Honestly wouldn’t mind seeing more of that variety. The same goes for the Day Date models.

Shouldve grabbed the blue dial 36mm while I could. Always liked that one. Watch looks great OP.

When the Fluted dial came out I thought rolex finally was going to spend some time working different dial treatments. It's a shame it's gone and we are back to just solid color or sunburst options. Beautiful dial OP
