Having seen both in the flesh, but not owned either...the Rhodium is the better watch imo.

Hundred percent Blue. I think Rolex makes one of the nicest shades of blue for dials.

One of each is the only solution here, they are both terrific and leaving one behind is too difficult. All you have to decide which to start with... unless you can do both at the same time.

Ha ha yes but until I get the blue - my vote went to the rhodium...




Actually - would RSC swap the dials for me if I decided I wanted a change? That could be a good option too.

Rhodium was initially on top but Blue is now slightly leading; no bad choices here!

There’s something very special about rolex blue dials!
I went blue for the contrast and mesmerizing sunburst!

Rhodium was available for me but I chose to wait 4 months for the blue!

I love the rhodium. I owned one and found it went with be everything, and that slight pop of blue is perfect.

The blue is nice but the rhodium just seems like something different, and special. I would choose the rhodium in an instant.

I like them both and i strongly considered them for my first Rolex. I couldn’t decide between the two and ultimately that indecision between not having a clear winner steered away. Went with a Sub. No regrets. But still appreciate this and still don’t know if I have a strong preference between these two lol.

Coin flip for me on those two but my favorite by far is the OG platinum dial.
