White gold day date 40

[Pepsidude]

Thinking about adding a day date 40 to the collection. I don’t like the Roman dials not the diamond dials, so it looks like black or slate for me. I missed what looked like a really nice slate example at Nashville Watch for well under 40k. Most of the examples that are nearly new are near retail. I recently bought a two tone datejust for the wife from the AD and was looking to add a Batgirl (or Daytona, HA) to go with my Pepsi for my upcoming birthday.

Do you think going grey would be best or do you think a WG DD may be available at a discount at an AD?

No discounts on Rolex anymore. I remember pre Covid DD40s went for $28k. Damn missed that boat

I want a dd40 white gold too. One day. Don’t rule out the DD40 Romans. I don’t like Romans on any other watches either but on DD40s they glimmer so nice and are totally unique to any other watch on the market
My dad’s DD40 yellow Romans. I want to trade in the DJ41 I never wear for a meteorite dial or Blue Ombré in white gold 40mm

I know you said no diamond dial but for WG DD40 I'd go with the meteorite dial

That’s beautiful

I'd look for a discount through a trusted seller.
You can likely get one from an AD but likely at retail plus tax.

It never hurts to ask and an AD might do it. More than likely not. Check the Trusted Sellers websites and make a few calls. Not a difficult watch to find or source.
