I'm sorry but photos aren't going to help you as much as you might imagine. You have to try on in person to know how watches look on you. You could easily find that a dial you expect to like looks like nothing on you but another one you had dismissed in pictures looks sensational.
Go to Rolex and try on, and do so a few times if necessary. It's quite the educational adventure.

Completely agree! I was lusting after Daytona SS and ended up getting 2-tone w diamond markers after seeing it in person. It just looked way more feminine in person;)
 
I HAVE seen that on the website!! It's beautiful! Unfortunately I'm not in a position to buy new at the moment but should I ever get another Rolex, I hope that will be new (shhh don't tell my husband!!)
Lol...

Not sure, but perhaps the face can be changed out on your (soon to be yours) watch at some point and time in the future, I think it's a service you can pay for with an authorized dealer.
 
Hi Louish, I think you shouldn't buy the Rolex right now, it really takes some time to choose. I have been trying on watches again and again in the past year and now I am so glad it did not buy the ones I was going to buy at the beginning of the process... I am still not 100 percent sure which one I will get but I pretty sure which ones I do not like in the end. Good luck!
