Same colour green, just different indexes and the DD doesn't have the orange markers.

I do too, the LV is nice but I think this is a little more subtle.

As for the orange markers, that is actually my favourite little detail on this watch, gives it just that extra pop of colour

Can't argue.
Uniquely colored. It exudes that freshness and optimism...

Having a watch feel “perfect” is a great feeling.

You’ve really captured the beauty of that stunner in your amazing photo. Congrats! And thanks for sharing!!

I'm not a big fan of green, but they flat out nailed it with this watch. That dial is beautiful. I prefer this over the LV

Rolex does a great job with sunburst dials. That olive green is stunning!

Beautiful watch, one of the very best in the Rolex catalogue, IMO.

I love dials that have varied looks in different light. Sounds obvious when I see it written like that but many watches are subtle or flat. Having a dial that changes in differing light conditions is like enjoying multiple watches in one!
