This is the first time I'm posting here but have lurked for a while, mostly checking out watches.

I have three contenders and I would love your opinion on them. They're all mid size (31mm).

Should I do diamond or mop? What I was told is that if I get the mop, there can be no more dial changes. If I get the diamond, cannot upgrade to mop. Too many options. Help please!!

You are welcome! I was told that they typically see mop with diamonds and this is not something they always have on hand. It just so happened that I was emailing my SA asking her to check inventory at their other location and she had called and had this pulled on her own. So when she saw it, she set it aside for me. I seem to have decision paralysis though!

I can't decide between diamond markers and roman numerals. Rolex makes nice roman numerals. But MOP is a must. I tend to like jubilee bracelet versus oyster as it camouflages lots of tiny scratches.

And this is my issue - the MoP with the roman dial is somewhat clearer (for lack of a better term) and the one with the diamonds is more textured. I don't know if there is a criteria for "good" mop or if it is more the issue of how people see it. Either way, I could always be fascinated by the flash of color with mop or will I miss the bling of the diamonds?

I also found a picture of the same watch with romans and mop with a 24 scatted diamond bezel - maybe I should ask if that upgrade is an option later and that way I can have both diamonds and romans and mop. Model no 178344mrj

I am okay with the oyster bracelet - I really feel it is more me. I figure that is something I can change later, but for right now, I like it more.

Gaah, should be easy right??
