My wife’s currently torn between these, but is leaning towards the steel face which I think is being discontinued.

Hi I realized that I forgot to come back and update... I ended up getting the 36 with black diamond dial a couple weeks after I started this thread.

Sold my 31 with domed bezel and silver dial.

Next week I am getting the 31 TT everose/ss with pink diamond dial!

Good choice, huge congrats. Looking forward to see some pics of the incoming 31 TT. My better half likes that one very much.

Help me choose - I currently have a 31mm very simple silver dial for everyday wear. I am looking for a dressier Rolex, so I have narrowed it down to the 36mm DJ black dial with diamonds, or two-tone DJ with white dial. They are both approximately the same price.

I want something that is eye catching and dressy as my current Rolex is quite simple.

Some of my considerations:
  • I don't have any yellow gold jewelry and I tend to choose white metals. Both my Love and JUC are white.
  • However, I find myself drawn to the two tone as it screams classic Rolex to me. Do you agree with this, in your opinion is the two tone more classic and timeless than all white?
  • I'm not sure if yellow gold would even complement my skin tone... opinions please?
  • I don't want a watch that looks too similar to the one I currently have.
  • I love diamonds on the dial but getting both diamonds and two tone together are more than I would want to spend, so it's kind of either-or at this point.

current watch:


choices!!!





Unless your 62-- go with the top one.

good luck on your decision, I'm sure it will be the right one for you. However.... be mindful that in the event of Rolex v's Diamond rings, Rolex's can and have come worse off... Memo; remove Diamond Rings prior to Rolex removal, Be sure to show and tell once you've made your decision.

Did you sell the 36 diamond dial? Any pics? My wife is a smaller Asian woman as well with small wrist. She has the 31mm datejust but want her to get a 36mm president or diamond dial datejust 36mm.

Great choice on that Everrose!! I would have never thought I’d be into Rose gold but In the last few months I’ve loved the Rose gold accents on my Tudor Black bay. Just a tip. Another company that does rose gold is correctly is Tiffany. Just got a new wedding band expecting to get a fat platinum band and fell in love with a thinner rose gold that happens to compliment the highlights of the Black Bay perfectly! Wouldn’t hurt to add a rose gold Tiffany ring to one of your fingers for the complete package!!!

Fair play, nice choice. What nice choices to have!

I find if nothing jumps out at you then it's wise to choose a colour scheme that's going to suit your wardrobe.

Having said that, most Rolexes go with alot of different stuff.
