Rose gold DD II 41 mm

Dear friends on TRF, I just need a few sec of your time to give me some input.
I'm seriously considering pulling the trigger on a rose gold DD II. My question is which dial you think is best for this particular model. I'm thinking either chocolate roman or pink roman.

Thanks in advance for your 2 cents.

Was with someone a few months back who tried on the Chocolate dial,RG model that the AD had just received.Truly jaw dropping.Made me wish I could carry off wearing RG.

I vote chocolate,no contest!

Are these all the dials available for the DD2?
Is it possible to get the A pink dial with a white background?

These dials are only for the Everrose DDII, other DDII have other dial options.

I don't know about you guys but its always bothered me that most DD dials you don't see the 11, except for the dials with diamond hour markers.
Have you noticed that the DD2 diamond hour markers are in line with the day window?

I'm a huge fan of the black roman with the rose gold. That's my vote!

Can anyone post or link to 'in real life' photos of these rose gold DDII's?

So hard to tell what the watch looks like from Rolex's official photos.

in lieu of a pink stick dial, I would say the pink concentric roman dial is the best to get with your DD II.
