That's beautiful. It's the last word in Rolex watches.

DayDate has always been a grail for me. I love my WG DD40 more than any other Rolex. The president bracelet is pure class.

Here are a few of my favorite wrist shots with it...

Personally if it would be my only watch I would fo with WG. If I would add it as an additional watch, I would go for YG. If I could afford the extra cash, I would go for that RG with olive green dial

Beautiful watch. Would love an 18k some day but not sure I'd feel comfortable wearing it in London.

Although I can have a good scrap the amount of Rolex robberies & stabbings here is unreal.

For me would attract too much of the wrong attention. A real shame. Should never be like that.
