opinion... dd2 plat
so i've decided to get the dd2 in platinum w/ ice blue dial but can't decide between indices or roman numerals.
initially, i was set on indices but then i tried the roman numerals and frankly... the silvery numerals go well w/ the case and is very presidential (for lack of a better description)... meanwhile the indices (while practical) don't appear to fit as well... seems like I've already made my decision but would love opinions from the forum. thank you in advance.

I love the black on black, but glacier blue with Romans would do very nicely as well

I've had a chance to see it on the WG DDII - it was a dial I'd initially overlooked, I didn't think it would work. Boy, how wrong I was! The way the numerals catch the light is spectacular, there's nothing else like it in the Rolex range |

Romans for sure. I have to say though--like the DD original Glacier blue with Roman the best though--had it for a few years--one of my favorite Rolexes! Anyway--you can not lose! Go for it!
