New dial on dj would be a home run

Rolex introduced a new dj31 with new dials

One of the dials is a mint green

I hope they make that for the dj 41, I feel it would be the hottest configuration

It is a nice looking green. I wonder why they refuse to use these on 36mm or 41mm models? It's always the 34mm or smaller.

A pic for reference.

If there's anything I've learned from Rolex in the past years, it is that everything I want to happen - the exact opposite happens.

Unfortunately for us all, I'd also love to see this dial in the 36 & 41. Sorry fellas :-)

i can't see them doing that but who knows with Rolex.

If they did it in 41mm it would go against and no one would buy the DD in WG with Oliva dial

It will come.
Rolex is no fool, they gonna milk this dial in smaller references and after a few years offer it for 36mm and 41mm Datejusts.

The olive green dial is a great seller. They put a lot of thought into their marketing. OP34 mm is no longer available so it does not go head to head with smaller Datejusts for the time being.

Agreed, this could be why they haven't added a green dial option on the DJ41.

I think the new 31 looks fantastic with that mint green dial and I would absolutely buy one if they introduced that or the olive dial for the 41. The Wimbledon dial is the closest to a green dial and it just doesn't do it for me.

Yes, I think it would look fantastic on a TT bracelet.

Yup, that would be a classy option in 41mm with a fluted bezel on jubilee.

This 34mm Olive Green dial is amazing.

I agree with the other members that are saying having this dial in a 36,39 or 40mm case will take the shine off the Anniversary DD.

An Olive Green DJ in 36mm with jubilee strap would be a killer combo!
