New to me silver quadrant dial, searched for this particular reference for a couple of years until finding the right one at the right price. Absolutely love it! Goes with everything from dress to casual, and works with any color clothing. Yes, some may say it’s too monochromatic, but that’s exactly what I wanted and I couldn’t be happier. If you’re on the fence, go for it, you won’t regret it.

Thanks for the thoughts and pictures everyone. I pulled the trigger on blue romans from a trusted seller. Will update with pictures once I have it.

No. They offered to me, my idea was to buy the YG with white dial, but this one is more subtle, under the radar for these times….

Boy was I wrong about the romans. Just received my watch from Takuya. The romans really set off the watch and the blue dial is fantastic. Pics to come. Shout out to Takuya for a great buying experience. Thank you all for your thoughts and pictures.

Segmented Romans on the 40 make it a totally unique watch in the Rolex catalog. I couldn't choose anything else.

Older gens I’m firmly in the stick-camp. For the DD40 I prefer [deconstructed] Roman > Stick. The latter makes the dial look a tad too empty for me.

Romans looks best on the 40. A lot of real estate on the dial with the sticks.
