Just saw this watch in person for the first time. Unfortunately it was Everose on an Oyster with a smooth bezel. 0/3 on the options!

At this point I'm trying to decide between two-tone and SS. The pics on this thread aren't helping as I love them both!

Because Rolex have sponsored the Wimbledon tennis finals forever and because Federer wears one quite often
He wore the 2 Tone version when he won he collected the cup for his record breaking 8th Wimbledon title

Yes. It's not called a "Wimbledon" by any official source. That is just a nickname that got picked-up when Rolex celebrated it's 2018 anniversary association with Wimbledon. The dial is slate. But, the slight green outline around the numerals is supposedly a "nod" to Wimbledon...some say.

Here's mine. Buy the steel if it's an everyday watch. TT is more dressy IMO.
