Day Date on Leather
So, I was in the Lexia Rolex Boutique in the Ginza in Tokyo today and I saw a guy trying on this watch. I was shocked at how great it looked. I didn't see reaction that coming. It certainly looked better in person than in any photo I've seen.

I think it has the same colour dial as the green SubC.
That green dial is amazing.

Love the green dial with the YG, but the strap would be too much for me. I would need a more conservative color to wear it.

I saw this watch at the Wynn and really liked it. I have always been shocked that people never talk about that series of DD watch on TRF.

I've always liked this color combo for some reason.

I like the blue better. Very nice looking on the strap. What's the MSRP?

Great looking combinations. Really changes the all gold look into a new watch... I like it! Maybe black diamond dial with a black strap would work for me?
