I think you should go for a lighter dial, black is similar to your Tag. Try Silver or Rhodium. 36 suits you with the full body shot. Consider the Roman Numeral, such a classic Rolex look instead of the stick (not a fan of stick dials). There’s also the 34 Date, fluted bezel with only oyster bracelet, check that out too. Can’t wait to see your final choice.

The blue dial with diamond markers is fabulous and is my next watch! The other watches are too similar to the Tag and you will be amazed how versatile the blue dial is. Funny how sometimes we are attracted to what we’re used to...try something different! The 31 is a great size for you, the 36 is definitely too big. Not a fan of the stick markers, diamond markers are my favorite.

Your comment really has me thinking. Blue could be nice! I hope it would go with everything...
I also always wear a jade bangle, so I was worried they might clash. What do you think?

Since you have black I really think the blue is great. Looks nice w the bangle though I wouldn’t wear them on the same wrist. Blue goes well w green, gray, charcoal, black, beige, red, white, yellow, orange, purple, dark brown, cocoa brown, turquoise...really, almost everything! Another observation, the diamond dial has a more open look than the stick markers so perhaps has a larger look.

great observations! I would go with sticks though (i love the lume) so i guess it wouldn’t look as open, huh?

It’s more difficult to tell time on blue dial. Go for black:smile:

It’s super important for me to be able to tell the time clearly! I had a beautiful mother of pearl with diamond but didn’t keep it because i couldn’t see the time clearly. That’s also why i decided against the white face. Do you think the lume is more prominent (due to the color difference) with the black vs the blue?

I think the more contrast the better for our eyes. That’s why I think black would be best. But you should choose what you like, what’s your heart’s desire;)
