DJII Blue Roman/ Plat DDII?

Does the DJII blue roman dial look like the plat DDII?

No much darker and different shade than the glacier blue on platinum DD/DDII's.

Squint and you'll see some similarities.

Even if the faces were remotely similar, the bracelet is a dead giveaway from 50 feet that they aren't twins in any way!

These two watches look completely different from each other. Nothing remotely similar about them.

They are not. Let me explain why people are kinda sarcastic here. Most members in this forum have seen hundreds (if not thousands) of pictures and tried at least tens of Rolex watches (and other brands).
Again, in this forum, they are day and night different.
However, the average non-WIS person, might" confuse DJ II to a DD II. It would not surprise me much if happened.

They would look more similar if you picked the smooth instead of the fluted bezel on the DJII.

It's easy to see what the OP is saying - to the non-WIS with similar bezels, they could be confused (at a short distance). To us WISs, they are different but not night/day.
