Congrats. That’s a beauty. I love the dial color which is quite unusual. Wear it in good health.

I like this combo but I do like the sun dust combo better. To me that combo looks a little more silver in certain lighting

Thank you! I love it and I am glad I went with it.
From the RG, I did try sundust, chocolate/diaglonal motif, olive green with the diamond bezel and this one.

I think this combo is a future classic, it just works perfect under any light. Obviously the olive green is the hyped dial, but this one is actually also very popular.

Like I said it’s my favorite over my stainless sub hulk sub Kermit stainless black Daytona stainless blue sky stainless pepsi etc etc all the usual hype we all see and hear about nonstop .. that’s all great ., but my daydate I still love the most
Thank you! It's too early for me to judge. But it does feel super special. And I like the feeling of heavy watch.

Thanks! In my view the roman numerals make the DD. Indices look too similar to the DJ.

If I do add a DD that one will be the one. 100%.

Major major congrats.
Thank you! You won't regret it.

Great watch, the only RG DD40 I have run into lately was one with a sundust dial and I turned that one down.
Thanks! I did try the sundust as well. It looked too silver-ish to me.
How is your quest to find one with olive green dial?

Thanks everyone.
Second day having this beauty. The dial has to be seen in real life. And the combo chocolate with Rose Gold works fantastic.
I am travelling with my SS BLRO and it feels a bit like a toy compared to the DD.

I used to dislike RG, but it’s growing on me. It’s not as blingy as YG and can’t be mistake. for steel like WG. It has a handsome warmth, too. Congratulations!

I tried the sundust as well and as you say it looks more silver-ish indeed.
I preferred the warmth of the chocolate dial against the RG.

Thank you!
On photos I liked the YG with white/roman, as well as the diagonal motif.
But when I saw it in person and put it on the wrist, it did not work for me.
The RG is more subtle.
