Fluted and Motif dials on new Datejusts
Looking to snag my third Rolex and eyeing something with colour on Jubilee since my current two are monochrome and both on oyster bracelets (34mm air-king and Sub 114060).
The new blue fluted motif dial on the 36mm datejust looks fantastic IMO, but I haven't heard much about it yet. Have these new dials been rolled out to AD's yet? Are they difficult to obtain? |

I like them as well, but wish they came in a 41.

I'm in waiting list for Palm motif since April. No call from AD yet.

Hard to get and a tad small for larger wrists. I am strongled biased towards the blue fluted dial, it looks really impressive IRL.

The blue fluted looks amazing, and the 36mm is literally perfect for my wrist size at 6.5 inches. Would you be going for the Jubilee / all fluted option? Bezel and dial...?

Fluted buzel is a must, it looks much better IMO. Jubilee or Oyster, both are fine. I would get Jubilee simply because it makes the watch sparks even more.

Why do we think these dials aren't available in the DJ41? My conspiracy theory is that in the long run oversize DJ is going away... but... that's a little silly, I know it sells like hotcakes.

Went in May to my AD for a blue fluted dial, quoted Christmas delivery. The blue dial looks great IMO…

I registered interest when announced as it looked cool, but the more pictures I see, the less I like it, I find the dial a bit jarring. Will reserve final judgement till I see one IRL, but will most probably pass.

The blue fluted dial looks great in the photos on the Rolex website. I personally like the green palm fronds dial better, but as stated above I would want to see it in person before having to commit to anything.
