Gorgeous watch - I've ordered the same model, only with black dial - should have it by next Friday.

I so wish that Rolex would offer more women's sized sport watches than the Yachtmaster. I've had two of those in 29mm and even for my tiny wrist, that nowadays feels too small. I'm sad they've discontinued the 35mm YM, but even then I don't care for the metal bezel. I would love to see a smaller Sub offered - I'd buy it in a heartbeat! The 36mm is just too large for me - I tried it.

Enjoy your watch!!

Have you ever tried a 34mm Date model? Or perhaps a 34mm AK?

TY! I was very indecisive when choosing a dial and sought out advice here. The only two dials that had a diamond 6 were the gray or the green. The majority suggested I go with the gray, but when I saw how much the green made the diamonds and gold pop, I was sold. My AD had to order the green, but it was worth the wait!

I wish Rolex would offer more choices for dials in the DJ with SS and YG. The rose gold option has much nicer dials. So do most of the men's watches. I tried on a few of the models for men, but most of them were way too big. I do love the Hulk tho!

Pls share some photos of your new watch when it arrives!

Haha. I'm definitely not teeny tiny, but I wanted a nice feminine ladies watch! Hence the 31mm.

That is an absolutely stunning watch! I bought my wife the same watch for our 10 year anniversary/her 40th birthday combo, in the version with diamond markers. The two tone against that gorgeous green dial is breathtaking. I'd get one myself but the only larger version with that color dial is a Day/Date anniversary version and it's a bit out of my league. Congratulations and enjoy that beautiful watch!

I apologize. I just now looked at your TRF name. I think by default I always assume everyone in here is a male. Sorry for my douchebag moment. I was just trying to swallow a man wearing a 31mm watch.

I gotta say...that's one nice looking two tone. Been through adversity and still had a face like that.
