Please help me decide
I have a hard time deciding which one to purchase. Diamond or fluted bezel. Please share your thoughts. I am very appreciated!

Would seem to need more context. Assume this is for you to wear?
Personally, I’d go with the one on the right (fluted bezel). |

It depends on your lifestyle and how much blinky effect you desire. Personally, i would buy the flutted bezel so as not to be afraid of taking any damage if i hit somewhere.

For me, the diamond bezel implies elegance and femininity. Much more dressy than the fluted.

Totally up to you, depends on your lifestyle, how much bling you want to show, desire to "flex", etc. The diamond bezel slaps, but, I would suggest the one on the right, fluted and a bit more understated.

I guessing you wear diamond jewelry as well, so go with the diamonds. Good luck!

IMHO, it also depends on when / where you hope to get the most wear out of this watch.
I know many will say any Rolex can be worn anytime for anything. But, I’m in a different tax bracket than some on this form. Lol. As a female myself, I’d save the diamond bezel watch for dressier occasions. Wearing this one to watch a soccer game or swim meet gives the vibe of “look at me” too much, imo. However, you do you! I’d go with the fluted bezel to tone it down. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

If you like diamonds as does my wife, she would take the diamond bezel.
You’ll find this forum to be a very much overall anti diamonds crowd.

Diamonds Giiiirlllll!!!
It's a no brainer (assuming it doesn't stretch you financially). It really pops and is gorgeous. Make sure you parlay this into an eventual desirable stainless model for the Mr. (assuming there is one). |

I don’t hate diamonds, but I rarely if ever like them on the bezel. I prefer baguettes on the dial.
So I’m going fluted here all day long. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
