new 218235 incoming next week
i told myself I wouldn't purchase another watch until end of April or maybe even May... I was thinking of the RG skydweller with brown dial. But I've always had my eyes peeled for a BNIB DD2 (218235) I just love this watch.
So a watch dealer friend of mine has a brand new rose gold DD2 with the rose face and diamonds. I have an option for the Ivory and Roman dial as well... I am worried I might get sick of the diamond dial over time... Ideally I'd love teh wave dial, black concentric, brown diamond or roman but it's more difficult to find.. I am going to pick it up as an EARLY birthday present to myself... I'm planning on picking it up monday and will add the Incoming pics I pulled these need to find better pic to upload of the ivory roman... Difference in price is $1500 diamond vs Roman... Thoughts? |

I think it's a great looking watch! For my skin tone I would have go with brown Roman but if you try it on and it works for you, go for it!

Congrats! My AD still has two RG DD2 in the case. I know one is the wave dial, I forget what the second one is.
