Stopped by a local AD today

Popped into my local AD today to see what new inventory they had. Checked out the new 40mm Day-Date vs the 41mm Day-Date. I must say, the new 40mm felt A LOT lighter than the 41mm. I however, still prefer the 41mm over the new 40mm. What do you guys think? Anyways onto some wrist shots

Tried on the new gold 40 mm first, since I've always said that my next Rolex will be a gold Day-Date



Asked my sales lady if they had this model with the factory diamonds in it, to my surprise; she told me they had a 41mm with factory diamonds but it was in the white gold so I gave it a try:




I was always so sure that my next Rolex would be a gold Day-Date with factory diamonds, but after trying on this white gold Day-Date in person I'm torn between the two

Great pictures, a good choice to have!

There are DD40s with diamonds, too!

Yeah, they had 1 gold DD40 with diamonds in it, it looked nice but I always liked how the DD41 had different style diamonds (at the 6 and 9 o clock position). The DD40 that they had in stock only had that straight styled diamond inside.
