Default ROLEX: Which diamond face??
Hi Ladies,

Which color diamond face would you choose on Rolex two-tone lady datejust??

Which do you think looks best? All suggestions greatly appreciated.

oh my goodness, there are so many pretty dials; if not too much bling desired, MOP faces with diamond markers seem popular and are very pretty.

I got the silver jubilee dial with diamond markers and love it. I am going to look for fierysweet's pics --she posted a gold jubilee dial with markers that was gorgeous.

Here's mine...





I found fierysweet's with the gold colored dial, but can't copy her picture. Here's the link to the thread

I love all of the mother of pearl dials, especially the black mop. If you don't want to spend the extra $2K, then the silver rhodium or salmon steel dial looks really clean.

I currently have the champagne w/ diamonds -- new style, but am considering a dial change and haven't been able to decide. I really love SSC0619's silver jubilee, but don't think they will put a jubilee face on a non-jubilee datejust. I have been trying to see what everyone finds most appealing. Thanks for everyone's help!!

I LOVE the salmon dial on watches! It is clean looking and to me, it gives a vintage-y feel, which I like.

Don't know how true it is, but I was at the AD yesterday and he said that Rolex is not too keen on changing out dials - they don't like to see people putting new model/style dials on old watches (my comment - I gather that means they'd rather we buy entire new watches, eh?)

-I really like the jubilee, visual interest w/o screaming at you from 10 feet away; I once had a ladies size like yours, I sure do like your mid-size!

My favorite is the white MOP which I have. Rolex won't let you switch to a MOP dial though for some reason though at least thats what my AD told me. You can only purchase a watch originally with a MOP dial.

I have this in mother of pearl in white... it's gorgeous and goes well with the diamonds. To me the mother of pearl gives the watch a little elegance...

I went by the jewelers to see if my watch was in. It wasn't, but he showed me a gorgeous one. RG/SS with a Pink MOP face as opposed to the regular pink. It was gorgeous, now I'm thinking maybe I should do that?

I'm guessing MOP will cost a lot more. Either one, you can't go wrong!
