I chose the rhodium but go with your gut. There's no wrong answer that way!

I like rhodium dials in general but in this case the blue looks better on the YM

Blue for me, but the Rhodium is rather nice.

I like the rodium dial, looks more elegant than the blue.

I'd go blue, but may favorite is the older platinum dial. I'm not a fan of the light baby blue hands on the Rhodium dial.

Both beautiful. And it’s an amazing watch. Feels great on the wrist. Amazing it doesn’t get more attention.

Probably too late, but this thread should had a poll! Wonder what’s the count so far in favor of Rhodium vs. Blue !

Try your luck and ask for a discount. Worst case scenario you will be rejected. Of course only do it in a case you are prepared to get it, if you get a discount. In case you are afraid you would get a discount and would need to take it, better not take the watches at all. Not at retail, not at discount.
