SubC or DJ Arabic dial?

Just about to go to a bar near the sea for a few drinks and decided to wear my SubC, when my girlfriend said why don't you wear your DJ...which is interesting as I would have thought that the SubC goes better with black T, shorts and flip-flops near the sea...but she thinks the DJ is equally at home (it has the oyster bracelet and black dial)...so, what are you guys thoughts?

DJ2 gives a preppier look. Maybe she just thought it would match your outfit and the occasion better?

What a lovely problem to have!

I have a SubC and want a Datejust.

I think I'm sat on the fence leaning towards DJ.

Yea, went with the Sub in the end-looked good! and your right on the DJ..in the fact that it gives a more 'prep' look

Kind regards

In Essex don't you have to wear gold or nothing?

Joey Essex doesn't know what the capital of France is but he has a gold Daytona and a gold DD2.

SUBc for sure, but a DJ with oyster bracelet and black dial would work too.

I think you can sport just about any Rolex with any mixture of attire. It's how you match everything up with colour and poise.

If the girlfriend is a future wife, then whatever she says. Otherwise I side with the SubC for more sporty outfit...

Simple. When in doubt, choose Sub. End of story.
