Rose Gold Day-Date: Diamond or Roman Numeral Dial?

I am a 35 year old female and I am planning to get a rose gold 36mm day-date with president bracelet, fluted bezel and pink dial. I am still unsure about the markers of the dial. Should I go for the the Roman numerals or diamond dials?

Thanks for your help!

Welcome, Sienna! They will both look great, but I would say go with the diamonds! Why not?

I suspect there is a greater niche for the Romans than diamonds if that make a difference. Diamonds though since you're a lady, fwiw. Ultimately you need to live with it so it truly is your decision. Welcome!!!!

I'm looking at the larger model and so far, I definitely think I'd be going for the luminous batons. The diamonds don't appeal to me, although I have to say they're more tasteful compared to other diamond dials I've seen.

However, I want legibility and the new lume is apparently brighter than the older version.

Go for either the index/stick markers or diamonds.........Roman Numerals and Day-Date never seemed like a match for me..........Enjoy!!!!

I think Romans look very classy, but Diamonds are something else. Go with diamonds!

My wife picked out the Diamond dial version and loves it. Still her favourite piece she has.
