Please help me with Rolex decision!

For doomed bezel, I like it either on oyster or jubilee bracelet.
as far as fluted one, jubilee would be a best choice, in my opinion.

What I think is you can wear from formal to casual along with traditional watch or jewelries. But may not be fitted from casual to formal when dressing together with sporty ones.

For instance: I won't wear a sport watch with a nice night time dress. But would not hesitate wearing the jubilee Rolex with jeans.

Swanky - is yours a 31mm? Are there pics posted? Thanks so much!

 

[Swanky]

Mine's a mid-size. . . I need to post pics. :shame: It's so purty, I love it. I wear it w/ dressy outfits and to the pool

^Please post pics - would love to see it! Enjoy!

Definitely go with what YOU like - not what the SA 'thinks' it should be.....like Swanky said, it wouldn't be offered if it wasn't a Rolex choice. I have a 36mm TT jubilee with fluted bezel and LOVE it. Wear it everyday. I like the idea of the MOP w. roman numerals. Good luck with your choice.

Fluted bezel with jubilee bracelet is a classic until recently, models come in various combinations because of demand. That combination doesn't show scratches as much compared to domed bezel with oyster bracelet, that's something you might want to consider.

I would pick fluted bezel, jubilee bracelet, MOP with roman numerals. Just love Rolex's roman numeral and MOP (if you notice, it stands out compared to other watches' MOP).

Good luck in deciding and look forward to your pics soon.

You can have whatever bezel you want, I have a 36mm with wg flutted bezel jubilee strap, I think it looks a bit more casual with a plain bezel & when I was buying my Rolex I was told to have diamond markers you have to have a wg flutted bezel not sure about mother of pearl I think it might be the same, personally if you can afford to have a wg flutted bezel its better because if you ever want to change the dial (face) there is more to choose from if you have the flutted bezel.

Thanks everyone!

Been dithering over the mop face and roman numerals or plain face and diamond markers. Kind of thinking the diamonds show up best on a black face but would rather have a lighter face like White as would go with paler outfits. Really don't know what to
Choose. The lady at Rolex seemed to
Think for the money diamonds were a better choice but I just think the mop is so pretty!

I am happy with my diamond markers on two-tone ladies rolex. But I love MOP too. Tough decision. Yes, diamonds will show up so much more on black face. How old are you? Sometimes after you are past the age of 45 (like me), it is harder to read a MOP face.

I would go with the MOP face over the diamonds...

 

[Swanky]

does it have to be black, white or MOP? I got a silver face, roman numerals and diamond markers.

My 2 cents, black dial tend to look sporty and if you want a sporty watch, then my combination would be SS or Rolesor domed bezel, oyster bracelet, black dial with roman numerals.

If you want a dressy watch, SS or Rolesor fluted bezel, jubilee bracelet, MOP or any other colour that's lighter, white or silver with or without diamond markers, if no diamond markers, roman numerals.

A dark MOP with roman numeral would be very unique with all yellow or all everose gold Rolex.

Hope I do not confuse you further. Most importantly, you have to see and try them on, I am sure there's one that'll suit you best. Also of so many Rolex Datejust you see, how many comes in MOP compared to diamond markers?

I was told by AD that you can upgrade dial to diamonds but not MOP as it's too fragile.

That is correct!
Rolex mop dials must be purchased at the time order.

Oyster strap and smooth bezel

I vote this with mop dial.

 

[rosieroseanna]

Thanks everyone. She definitely said that if I have mop I can't have diamonds added later. I just think a silver dial wouldn't work well as I wear yellow gold jewellery and I'm also not very keen on the gold dials. I 27 so I will be able to see the mop. Really don't know what to do!
