DJ 41 Rhodium or Blue
Fluted on Jubilee...should I go Rhodium or Blue? Below my Rolex’s so you see what I have...

I was faced with the same dilemma. Either is a great choice. I went with rhodium because it is a more difficult dial to find in Rolex and in other brands. I also liked rhodium because I can wear it with black, grey, or navy suits.
You really can't lose here and either item will be good addition to your collection. |

Rhodium for me... I'm considering it in Rhodium with the Arabic numbers and WG fluted bezel.
Rhodium face has a great look to it IMO. |

Either dial works. I’m joining the rhodium fan club but really also like the black myself.

116622 in rhodium really has been grabbing my attention lately. It's on my hit list for a possible future purchase.

Rhodium is the new blue!!! For bracelets I'd likely choose the one with the Jubilee!!!

such a tough call. with your group I'd go with the blue, but Rhodium is amazing, and amazingly versatile IMO.

I'm leaning towards the Rhodium.
I'll probably get a Rhodium with diamonds. I hope they bring back the Blue Jubilee dial |

Your collection needs some blue, but that doesn't mean you should chose blue considering it's trickier to colour match with any attire. Dark grey would be much easier in that respect and is perhaps a touch classier whereas blue is a bit sportier. Both look great. Since I usually dress business casual rather than wearing suits, I'd probably go blue.

Yep. That's a tough one. I too am looking at those...with oyster bracelet.
But, now I am really focused on black. I just think the stark contrast is very formal and classy. But, the blue and rhodium have both been battling for first place too. It is total war....in my head. |

Very tough choice. I think with your collection the blue would give you a bit more variety. Having said that, if you take your collection out of the equation I'd choose the Rhodium

I went with rhodium and absolutely love it. That said, I keep looking at the blue with jealous eyes. If I went with the blue I'd look at the rhodium the same. Wasn't that helpful?

I think given your collection, the blue. You've already got a jubilee, and some color would be nice. And agree...the blue is a little sportier, rhodium a little dressier.
But...those factors don't mean anything compared to which one you like best. |
