126300 Oyster Smooth - color?

Dear friends!
I am going to buy this watch tommorow. Please, can You suggest the ideal dial for everyday with suits and formal clothes?
What do You think about Slate?

Blue with greean and brown suits won't be ok I think.
I, myself, thinking about classical black or slate (only because of the green Rolex color on Roman).

It’s all personal preference really. I have the blue dial 41 - in my collection - and it usually stays in the rotation —- I find it to be quite diverse — but the other two options you’ve mentioned are both great contenders.

A slate dial on a steel watch is just too monochromatic for me.

Good luck!!!

Another vote for Blue with Rhodium right behind it.

I just get so surprised that there aren’t more silver votes.

It is the classic datejust colour dial and goes with everything.

If the DJ41 silver is the same as the DJ2 silver, then it has a champagne tinge to it and just looks stunning.

The blue is beautiful, but I vote black. That's my next watch. Smooth, oyster, black.

Black or white dial gets my vote too. That said, I wish you could get the champagne dial with SS DJ. That would be nice.

Blue is probably nice, but white could be more versatile. Those would probably be my top two in no particular order, with black trailing in third.
