If you wear that style clothes all the time how about the white dial/jubilee/fluted? I think that would pop but I’m interested to hear your take. I think the rhodium is too subdued.

DJ2 is where the value is. Better case design, cool and collectable IMHO.

Wrong choice. DJ2 better value, better design. Classic.

'Wrong choice'....in your opinion.
Not the opinion of the OP, as he pointed out.

Blue looks great with all outfits. But the dark rhodium is very
Classy.

Not normally a big fan of blue dials, but this one really "pops". I think it's just a better contrast, and the blue is a gorgeous shade. Also, don't leave out the black dial as an option, either. I visited my AD recently, looking at a dark rhodium. She also showed me the black, and on the DJ41 it is a reallly sharp sunburst effect, which looks absolutely stunning with the Jubilee and fluted bezel. Unfortunately, I can't really find a pic that does the black dial any justice. This was one I took at the AD. They didn't have the black dial with baton markers in stock, only the diamonds:



Cheers,
Carl

Also I’m going for the fluted version with the jubilee most likely


What I worry about the most is that the blue one might not work well with black blazer or black shirt? What do you think?
Rhodium, it will fit better with the clothes you mention and you are less likely to get tired of it.

What would make blue to get tired and rhodium not?
