Good example, SkyD and YMII come to mind as well.

I love my tt dj41 but can’t find opportunities to wear it because of the diamond dial and it being “flashy”. I love it but sadly don’t dress up enough to enjoy it.

Any DJII has wrist presence and that combination, TT, champagne diamond dial, would certainly attract some attention. The TT Daytona 116523 also with diamond dial might get alot of attention. The Skydweller has lots of wrist presence at 42 mm but doesn't come in diamond dial. I would say the jewelled SARU, SABU, RBOW watches are factory gem set watches and would take the prize of most "flashy," but they are not TT. I really like that 116333 diamond dial.

Agreed with above:

I own the 41mm DJ in TT, Champagne Dial, and jubilee bracelet. The jubilee sparkles a little more and would win for flashy above oyster. It frankly looks like it could be solid gold from more than 30 ft away.

Sky Dweller TT with Champagne probably has most wrist presence and is bigger with fluted bezel so it sparkles too. This wins for me as flashy.

TT YM 2 is solid but not as flashy because rose gold vs yellow, but the watch as a whole has nice presence.

I don’t know if being “flashy” is what I go for, but I definitely enjoy people noticing my watch. Meaning I’m all about solid YG and RG and enjoy folks noticing but I would never go diamond bezel, little too f-you, but if I ran in that circle, why not!

A little flash is good!

This was my end of year gift to myself. Everose and steel DJ36 with rose dial. After I got it, I thought it was too much bling, and almost sold it. I'm so glad I didn't!!

16623 Yachtmaster with MOP diamond and sapphire dial. A nice level of flash.

Rose-gold is really not flashy. Needs to be yellow gold for the bling factor.

Many times I've looked at a Rose-gold Jubilee and not sure if I was looking at RG or SS.

If you're going for flashy I think that you have to go full PM, not two tone. That or REALLY flashy with a Rainbow Daytona or Pearlmaster!
