Daydate 2 everose gold dial choice

Hi,

Im looking to pick up a second hand dd2 in everose that has the roman chocolate dial. The dial looks great, but Im looking to make it a bit more sporty.

Has anyone seen the wave dial or black consentric dial in real life? Do they look good ? What would you recommend to change to ?

I was on the fence with chocolate and ivory.
I ended up with ivory because it offered a nice causal look. The ivory also 'changes color' in different angles. It can look white, cream, or sometimes champagne, depending on how the light hits it

The chocolate gives it a very modern look already. I would not change a thing. DD2 is in a league of its own

You could throw a NATO on that bad boy and really make heads turn! haha. Seriously, though. It's not a sport watch, it's a classic power dress watch with style for days.

While you don't have to love it for what it is, if you really want sporty you should look at the sport line. Messing with the DD is just crazy talk.
