Which of these 3 Day-Date 40 ombré dials is your favorite? If you had to choose one, which would it be?
YG Green, Everose Slate, or WG Blue? |

I saw the DD Blue Ombré on White Gold on my trip to Poland a few months ago and it was stunning! I’d like to see the Slate edition on the Rose Gold, that just strikes me as a beautiful combination.
I was offered the Blue Ombré and didn’t pick it up, and now regret that. |

I tried on the RG Slate in Rome this summer. It is stunning. Haven’t seen the others in person.

I'm going to ask my AD to put the Blue and Green on the waiting list and see whichever pops up first. Shocked you turned away the blue ombre. I think it's stunning in pics but have yet to see one in person.

These are 3 of my favourite current model DD references..
If it’s a first DD, I’d recommend going YG or RG but the WG is absolutely stunning and will be more versatile. If I had to pick, I’d go slate ombré but this is such a difficult decision to make and you can’t make a bad decision between these three. |

Think I would go blue dial. Ombré works best with blue to my eyes.
