Hi~~everyone!
I need your help. I can't decide between RG daytona and YG president 31!
I have 29 RG pearlmaster already, and this would be my second rolex and might be last one.
I really want daytona now, but worry if big watch get tired soon...
YG president is classic but I feel little boaring..but timeless and safe.
Which one should I get?

PS. RG is much better for my skin tone(YG is ok too, but RG better)
Which color should I get if I buy president? (for daytona, RG for sure)
Please help~~can't sleep!

I personally would vote for the Daytona, but in the spirit of being helpful:

Are you worried about personally feeling tired from wearing the large Daytona watch all day? If so, that's a relevant concern, as I have noticed some people feel uncomfortable wearing a larger watch. (I, on the other hand, LOVE wearing large watches! And I wear my Sub all the time, every day!)

If you mean you worry that the Daytona will not look good after a while (or, be "out of style") then that is nothing to worry about. It's been in style forever and it's one of the Rolexes I see a lot of on @watch_Fashionista on Instagram (sure you can see other watches on their Instagram account, too!).

Do they equally appeal to you? Truly?

Can you go to an AD and take photos of them on your wrist? This will help you decide whether you like the look, as you can look at them again each day for a week or so (just an estimate) and then let yourself choose which one you'll go back & buy. Plus, if you upload them we can peek, too^^

Been eyeing this watch for work n weekends. Is it too dressy for weekends? Has oyster bracelet which is casual but wondering if the bezel is too flashy? Thoughts?View attachment 2778227

Beautiful watch! I have a very similar one to yours, only difference is mine has a fluted bezel. Personally i think that the diamonds on the dial are enough, the added diamond bezel looks a bit gaudy/ like a fashion watch as opposed to elegant!

In my humble opinion, I think the diamond bezel is too much. I also think that this style bezel is not as classic as the fluted bezel or the all diamond bezel. However, it is a lovely watch, and if you love it, then no one else's opinion matters

I think it is fine to wear all the time. I have a Rolex with a diamond bezel and I wear it every day. If you love it, don't let it sit out the weekends ;)

Just adding my thoughts, too. I agree with these thoughts about that watch; the scattered diamonds (with a smooth bezel) seems more like a fashion watch than a truly elegant one (such as the fluted bezel or the all diamond bezel). I also don't think a watch can be too dressy for the weekends! A beautiful watch looks good all the time, work or play, and I would strongly encourage you to enjoy your watch and not worry about dressy or not!

That being said, I also agree with the others: if you love the watch, no matter what others say, you should let yourself get it and enjoy it to the fullest!

:tup: good luck as you decide!!

Tx everyone... It took me some time to get used to the new bezel but after looking at it for more than 6 months at the shop - have now fallen in love with this more modern look - like stars twinkling against a dark black canvas night - from afar u cannot see the diamonds on the bezel until up closer and so I think I'm a peace with this watch now ImageUploadedByPurseForum1413300532.341973.jpg.

Hello Everyone,

Again, I want to thank ALL of you for your words of wisdom and input. I placed my order yesterday. I went with the pink waves...stainless steel...fluted bezel...jubilee bracelet...36 mm. I saw both dials yesterday. Both are truly beautiful, but the pink dial just spoke to my heart...loudly. LOL

I must say that the pink is very light in color...very feminine and soft. My watch should arrive from New York in three weeks. I will be sure to post pictures at that time. :)

Cheers,
Linda
