Ready for Day Date 40: YG vs. RG (poll)

Now that Basel 17' is in the books I am ready to make a game time decision.

Will be ordering today;

Originally was planning for the YG DD40 Champagne Dial w Romans. (LOVE CLASSICS)

Now have the RG DD40 Olive Dial in mind as well.

Never really liked greens but love the olive.

My current collection includes a YG Daytona (pn dial) a WG Sub (smurf dial) and a 16710 Pepsi. Will be flipping my SS Sub C towards the DD40.


All comments welcome!

Mix it up. If the RG works for you it would be the one for me.

I voted for the champagne between those two.

But, my overall preference would be the WG with the olive...my favorite DD by far.

Gotcha...well, I think either will fit into your stable very nicely. I love that Daytona/Smurf combo!

Debated between this too although silver instead of champagne in my case.

I would say YG but since you have the Daytona go for RG and mix it up. If I go gold again going for rose to complete the trifecta.
