RG Skydweller Slate/Rhodium Dial or Chocolate Dial
Between the two dials, which one do you prefer? Anyone have a side by side comparison? Thank you!

Rhodium all day for me. It pairs very well with the RG.

Slate/rhodium for the contrast with the RG.

Both are great but I'd choose the Slate between the two.

I feel slate is the better combination but I don’t think there is a bad choice.

I still like the sundust but legibilty is poor.
Need to look at least twice to read the time, but that’s OK

Slate. The RG with chocolate dial is stunning but I prefer the grey.

IMO, the 326935 with Rhodium dial is the most beautiful Rolex made !

The Slate/RG is amazing, got to try one on once and it’s fantastic.

Not a SkyD but it’s little brother. Nobody does RG and Chocolate better than the crown IMO

Slate all the way! Especially with the Oysterflex. Much more contrast than chocolate.

Another vote for slate here. Beautiful contrast with the RG.
I always feel chocolate brown dials have a bit too much of a 70's vibe about them for me.

I think the slate/rose gold is one of the best combinations Rolex makes. That gets my vote!

RG / Chocolate sort of a classic combination, but the slate looks like a great contrasting color. I don't think there is a bad choice here.

Both look amazing Slate has a lot of depth but IMO the Chocolate works best with RG.
