This President and i had a little chat
Sat down in a meeting with this beautiful President, as he listened what my wishlist is for a new purchase.

The meeting ended with me placing my option in the vote booth, now is up to the AD to validate or not the elections

In the meantime, i thought you might enjoy some photos

You're spot on, the 36 fits perfectly on my 17 cm wrist.

It is indeed a gorgeous watch; this was my favourite DD up until this year of W&W.

When compared to my Submariner, i liked that despite its smaller size, this DD easily feels a bit more heftier. Also, i had no problem adjusting to the different way these 2 watches wear, even though the DD is the clear winner for how it fits. Just perfect!

The green Ombre' is fire! You will love it. I had it for two days and still couldn't take my eyes off the dial. It's so fascinating to look at. I vote Green Ombre'.

More like the final exit poll, to see if the AD validates my request for the chosen model

Can't go wrong with a DD, one of the coolest and timeless watches

I just saw the Rolex website for the 36 they also have another bright green config, that one was fire also. I wish I could fit in 36 so many choices

Wow! You've just guessed my vote for the President i want . It is that ref, bright green with baguette diamonds for which i registered my interest with the AD.

We all know that shade of green, same as on the discontinued green Daytona and Sub Date. The ombre reference i've tried on was my favourite up until W&W this year, when they released the one you mentioned. I instantly knew i want that one.

When i was browsing the platinum version with baguette diamonds i always hoped they would bring some baguette diamond options for the YG or WG. And they did

Love that dial and great fit.

To each there own, but the green ombré is so much nicer than the green enamel imo.

Yeah, the 36 fits excellent on my wrist. Lacquer dials are beautiful also, but for me sunburst and ombre (which in this case also has a sunburst pattern) top the list.
