I can't decide
Hey guys this is my first post (just been lurking for the most part) and I need some help choosing what Datejust 41 to get. It's between the steel and white gold with the rohdium dial, or the steel and yellow gold with the champagne dial. Both with the jubilee bracelet and fluted bezel. I would love to get both, but one will have to wait a little while longer.

Welcome Jack. Have you seen them in the metal? These posts are always tricky to answer so most likely you hear a lot of ... buy what you like responses.
Personally I love the rhodium dial with oyster combo. I’ve tried the jubilee but it’s too dressy for my taste. Good luck |

I love blue or black smooth or fluted 41. Sharp watch. Def a preference, I hate tt or yg so a matter of preference. Wait for what you want.

Kudos for going with the jubilee and fluted bezel - to me that's a must for a DJ. Regarding color, it's really matter of personal taste and whether or not you like TT. I personally would go with the SS and Rhodium dial.

I’ve seen several versions of this watch in the AD, I’d go with the SS and WG bezel. As for the dial, not sure if I prefer silver or rhodium. You need to see and try on several times. Have fun!

I had a DJ 41 Rhodium dial with fluted bezel. I was a very elegant watch! If I would buy another DJ41 probably I will choose again the same SS and WG combination but probably with the silver dial.

I am not a big TT fan and think the rhodium dial with the fluted bezel and jubilee bracelet may be my new favorite DJ41.

I think the Rhodium is the way to go. It's classy, but versatile enough for any situation. Plus it flies under the radar a bit more than the TT version.

Rhodium is very nice. I agree with all that it really helps to see it in the flesh.

If your one and only I wouldn't get the Two Tone first.
White Rolesor probably the way to go |

I can't decide
I had the same dilemma a few months ago. I agonized over TT yellow gold with black dial, or white gold rhodium both on jubilee. Ultimately ended up with Rhodium fluted. I don’t regret it at all.

Go try them on. I thought I would love the rhodium dial and I ended up loving something entirely different, a black and gold two tone sub. Once you see them on your wrist, you will know which one you want. It sounds easy, but I would take your time and go to an AD with a good selection and make an afternoon of it.

Don't let anyone tell you any different, though rhodium has a silver effect but i would always go for it, rhodium for me.
