Datejust TT, Wimbledon or Stick ?

I know, the age old question.

I am looking to buy a two tone Datejust. I just think they look stunning, classic and in some ways the ultimate daily dress watch

I have settled on the oyster bracelet. I know the jubilee is more classic, but I like the sporty twist of the oyster, which also takes less away from the actual watch face visually. Fluted bezel is of course a must. This is IMHO, the whole thing is such individual taste.

Nevertheless, I have been offered three now by two jewellers.

I love all of them but need to pick one.

For me, my comments are:
1. Motif dial and rose gold. Limited and probably worth the most used. Rose gold is slightly less flash then yellow gold. Very high on the beauty stakes, probably the least macho.
2. Wimbledon with romans. What can I say, the original marmite dial. Like the airking (which I love). I think it is stunning, in particular the grey brushed sunburst dial with a light lume coating, the green numerals and the contrast of the gold bezel. It is unique and very Rolex classic, and in someways the most stunning.
3. Black dial, yellow gold. The absolute classic. Strong contrast, beauty and goes with anything. Looking at the used market, definitely the popular TT

There are many other combinations. I think one I come closest to after these is the champagne dial, which folk generally agree is the most classic with a jubilee bracelet.

what do you guy/girls think ?
