The President is calling me, which one to choose?
So, I have been collecting for a couple years now, from the moment I (thankfully) could afford it.
My first RLX was a gift from a family member a few years ago, SS 36mm date just white dial, roman numerals, which I love and fits really well, as I have been blessed with really thin wrists (Around 6") After that, when I could, I went ahead to explore the SS Sport section, BB58, 14060, 114060, Explorer II, Daytona pre Ceramic, GMT and some vintages... And I like them, but they sadly don't fit, I am much much more confortable with a 36mm watch. So ended up selling most and keeping a 1680 Red, 5513 and 14060 because I love them, but I don't wear them often. So when the new Explorer I was announced I quickly registered my interest, and my AD delivered in only two months... Been wearing that ever since, and I love it. I feel that most brands nowadays still regard 36mm as women's size, so not many pieces to be excited for. Until I arrived to the Day-Date... and its been growing on me, a lot. I started to notice it, even more now that I am in a position allowing its acquisition, just last night watching Seve Ballesteros documentary, there it was I am seeing it as my "Rolex Grail", first full PM piece, before that, it was the current YG OF Paul Newman dial Daytona, too big. Considering that I am still under 30, (but with a classic style, all said) which dial configuration would you vote for? (I have more or less light skin) For me, Yellow Gold is a must for this watch, I would source this from my AD (would like it new, so other references are discarded), any experience on how long are DD36 taking now? - Green With Diamonds, I initially discarded this one due to the diamonds, but after seeing some videos and live pictures, it is Gorgeous! Diamonds don't stand out too much, and its already a full gold watch I guess the green won't make it that much bling If someone who has it could chime in, that would be awesome. - Champagne: The classic timeless Day-Date dial, I am a bit worried that it is "too much yellow". - White: I feel that it lacks something, and considering I already have a white dialed SS DJ, this looks like the most versatile but the one that less attracts me from the three. Any opinion or feedback is greatly appreciated! Some pictures from Rolex to illustrate: |
