X 2 incomings (datejusts)

So happy to add another two datejusts to my collection, this time round I got the missus a 31mm diamond dot also.

She preferred the 31mm to the 36mm due the size proportions and the hidden clasp you still get on the 31mm.

The white dial sung to me on the two tone, so crisp and easy to read, also contrasting with the black dial I have already.

Anyways enjoy the pictures, I will take the stickers off soon!

Congrats. I agree with you that the white dial looks great. I saw a white face two tone skydweller yesterday and I fell in love. The white seems to make the gold pop. Excellent choice!

Thank you, I would love a sky dweller but they are just that bit too big for my wrists. If it suits your wrists though then why not?

Exactly how I felt when I saw it in the AD. It was a 'have to buy it' moment. Such a beautifully crisp dial. Still buzzing that I bought it.

Nice. I bought the 36mm that you got for your wife. I remember X amount of years ago buying a TAG AcquaRacer and getting the ladies largest size and the AD was like "Are you sure?" since they had to order it. And it looks small today agains the 36mm. which looks normal to me.
