Bicolor Datejust 41, champagne or black dial?
Hi,
I am planning to get a bi-color Datejust 41 next. Bi-color yellow gold, fluted bezel, jubilee band. I am unsure about the color of the stick dial though. Would you guys prefer champagne dial or black dial? Many thanks.

I would eliminate the champagne right from the start and chose between black, white or Wimbledon :)

Having the same debate! Just purchase champagne dial for old school feel.
My dad wore it before his was stolen in a home robbery. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I consider the Wimbledon dual too busy for my taste so it should be a stick dial.
I really like the classy champagne look but I think the black dial gives the better contrast. [IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG]

I'd choose champagne eyes closed for this model and configuration. When the dial turns to a gold sunburst hue is like having the sun under your crystal.
The black dial gives a nice contrast, but for me this would be a debate only for Daytona TT. |
