Platinum Day Date 40mm Dial Options

With all the hype on SS models did these dial options quietly make an appearance or were these always an option? I don't remember seeing these.
Gorgeous, nonetheless.

hmmm, most were an option, but I don't recall that olive dial being an option for platinum though. I could be wrong though, I don't spend much time in the platinum neighborhood....

Thanks for confirming. Like the platinum Daytona, I always assumed the Ice Blue dial with or without diamonds, were the only options.

If it has an ice blue dial, it's platinum, but not all platinums have ice blue dials.

They sneaked in an update to the 36mm day date dials. There is a white roman available now for the 36 in WG and YG. I was hoping for black sticks. They may have done the same with the 40 and quietly launched some new choices. I’m not as a familiar with the dial choices for the 40 though.
