Does anyone know if Rolex released DDII or will release DD40 platinum versions with fluted dial? I was under the impression that these only come in smooth bezel from factory.

No fluted bezel with platinum

Great, thanks for your reply.

they would look good though

Not from factory, but it can be done.

I've handled a 118206 that had been fitted with a factory white gold fluted bezel at the owner's request (he thought the domed bezel was "too plain"). This was done by a Rolex-certified (but no longer Rolex-employed) watch maker.

It looked great and the weight was surprising, but I'll confess when I saw it I assumed it was a WG model with a glacier dial swapped in.

If it had a fluted bezel, that would probably push me over the edge.....
