Hello!
I have finally decided to buy a Rolex, as a form of celebration for graduating. I have chosen the Datejust 41mm, on a oyster bracelet with a fluted bezel. I am in doubt about which dial color I should choose - the pick stand between dark rhodium and black. I really like both, so I hope you guys could give me some advice, and show me some wristshots :-)

Thank you!

Rhodium dual is stunning. My second favourite behind the Blue Azzurro

As much as I like rhodium on my Yachty, the black sticks look great with the fluted bezel. My wife recently bought it in 36mm, it looks great.

rhodium would be my choice

EEpro · 27 March 2020, 03:03 AM

White Roman or blue stick.

I think the Rhodium is more versatile and better for the long term. Plus, the dial may always be rarer.

The rhodium dial is awesome. It's going to look almost black in some lighting, but gives you some added visual interest.

md3113 · 27 March 2020, 03:08 AM

I vote black

Rori · 27 March 2020, 04:10 AM

If blue is out of the equation then dark Rhodium. Please don't miss owning that dial, just MESMERIZING.

Frank Mucus · 27 March 2020, 04:14 AM

Between those choices and I would take either the wimbledon or blue sticks

Mjack1 · 27 March 2020, 07:09 AM

The black won’t be a bad idea....so I vote black.

Ny325 · 27 March 2020, 07:25 AM

I always prefer a more traditional color dial. White or black. So I prefer black. I would get tired of the Rhodium dial over time.

rmagoo57 · 27 March 2020, 07:32 AM

Rhodium. Your next Rolex will probably have a black dial - Sub maybe?

worldfamoussam · 28 March 2020, 09:30 AM

The dark rhodium is fantastic

newu5er · 28 March 2020, 10:07 AM

Rhodium all day every day.

mmmmp · 28 March 2020, 10:49 AM

Not for everyone, but I really like mine.

You should consider blue!

Audible for the blue...if not that, then probably black.

ltmgeller · 28 March 2020, 10:59 AM

Blue is awesome.

JayHantz · 28 March 2020, 11:01 AM

Out of the two, I would go rhodium; I think there is more pop and character to the dial. I am a huge fan of the blue though....so if that makes its way in to your radar, I would go blue.

superstarmar · 28 March 2020, 11:16 AM

Black dial sticks fluted ... or sub possibly? Hey hey ?

rrags · 28 March 2020, 01:32 PM

Another vote for blue sticks fluted and jubilee bracelet. Just got myself one and absolutely love it.

Nikrnic · 28 March 2020, 02:15 PM

Too close to call. For a one watch only I'd go black. S/O Wimbledon was my choice.

Blue sticks dial. However if you're set on rhodium or black, I vote rhodium.
