Absolutely stunning. I'd imagine an oil sheikh wanting to own one back in the day, even if he couldn't wear it due to religious reasons.

Champagne but with diamonds. If you want Roman numerals I would choose silver dial.

These were all pretty banged up and a few were overpolished...

Wasn't sure if I wanted a WG or RG DD40 with the olive dial for my grail watch. Went into my AD today to compare them in the flesh. I am absolutely in love with the WG (228239). Looks like I have to start saving!

If I'm not mistaken, doesn't that top picture show a DD40 with the wrong hands for that dial? I thought the Roman dials had the non-lume hands.

To answer your question, I like the silver.
