A modern classic

I sometimes forgot how great this watch when I'm wearing my sport watches. The dial amazes in the sun, and I can't get over how beautiful the deconstructed Romans are. Great way to kick off the weekend!

Yes, Rose Gold. I originally thought it was too close to my skin tone, but couldn't get over just how yellow the YG was!

I think the RG looks real nice on tanned skin. But I live in Hawaii and I own a CHNR so I'm obviously biased!

Absolutely stunning!
Your RG seems to be more darker or more rose gold than my RG Daytona.
Most of the time my Daytona looks more like YG.

Either this or the one with baguettes is my favourite day date!

When this one first launched I thought the numerals were a great idea.

Great looking watch!! Beauty!! What do you mean by deconstructed numerals? Is that different to the Roman numerals?

Congrats on the beautiful watch! Is it just me or is the watch slightly loose on your wrist? Might just be how far up the wrist the watch is sitting in that pic.

RG and choco is a modern classic combo for sure, all the top brands now have some variant, I used to have this in a DD2, probably prefer the older numerals tho.

That is one beautiful watch. The more I look at the day date, the more I am thinking of consolidating my less frequently used watches and get one of these. Perhaps, sell all my three DJ41, day date wannabe and get the real deal...
