DJ 36 Purple Dial

Just wondering what is the general opinion about a guy wearing watch with diamond numerals? I’m looking to add a DJ 36, Purple Dial with diamond Roman numerals at 6 and 9 sometime during Christmas perhaps.

My opinion is wear what you like and who cares what others think, it's your wrist and your watch

Having said that, if possible try it on in person... try before you buy... the fluted bezel and jubilee can be very flashy! Keep that in mind. I tried a fluted/jubilee DJ36 in silver and it was too flashy for me, but that is a matter of personal taste.

I agree with this 100%

I don't find the diamonds on these numerals to be obnoxious and I'm not typically a big fan of diamonds.

I also love the purple dial. Very different and unique!

real men shall all have enough confidence to wear whatever watch they like

To this watch, I think the color and the diamond are cool but I am not a fan of Roman

Actually to be honest I’m like 85-90% likely gonna get the watch. Just have to save for the next few months as I’ve just bought 2 watches lately. A bit apprehensive because it will be my first watch with diamonds on it. Like Wesdaniel noted the diamonds are not really obnoxious and it blends in with the dial. Will be a good Christmas present to end 2020 :) Let’s see how it goes!

I think it’s nice but remember it might be there when you are ready.

Anyone can wear anything they want and like! Enjoy it

Not for me. Diamonds look better on women. That said, there are few exceptions like PP 5170P and Daytona with diamond baguettes.
