Next rolex...can't decide!

Looking at my next rolex and have decided on a yacht-master 40....but I'm torn between the stainless steel rhodium dial or the two tone everrose with the black dial?
I'm leaning to the two tone as really feel in love with the black dial on love rose gold...but then as I'm not a real dressy sorta person I then consider the rhodium ....so looking for ideas guys...i already have a sd43 so don't want a sub and sort fell out with the gmt so left with only 2 choices

There is no right or wrong obviously.....but the right choice would be the one YOU like most. Sounds like you're really leaning towards the TT Everose. For me personally, in the YM40 ref, I would go for the SS blue dial with the red second hand. That one is my favorite! However, between the two that you are considering, I would choose the SS Slate (Rhodium) ref over the TT. More usable as a daily and not as flashy would be my incentives. From the sound of it, the TT Everose seems like it's the one that's hooking you. Since you already have a SD43 that you can use as a less flashy daily, the TT might go well in your collection?

If you can’t decide then you’re not ready to purchase your next Rolex.

Pick what you like. That being said, I'd also consider brown dial TT if I were you. It's more unique. There are other TT black dial watches in Rolex range. There are no other brown dial TT watches (at least that I can remember off the top of my head).

The DJ range also has TT RG brown dial available.

To OP's question, i would get the SS YM in your case. I wouldn't want another black dial and i'm not a fan of Rolex's RG hue. But you should get what YOU like

Sounds like you like the TT more.
Personally, I think the discontinued platinum dial is the nicest YM in the line.

Taking a decision on the model you really want is your first step to purchasing it, you already sound like you love the TT more, you can go for what you really love as it's a piece you will have to see everyday.

There is no right answer except to suggest that you will probably either end up owning both or neither. Equal love, own both either collectively or sequentially. Not sure, keep looking, you haven't found your next watch yet. Nice problem to have.

Still struggling with the decision,but if I'm honest I'm leaning more towards the everose....but then the the root beer comes to mind and then I'm struggling again....I was like this with my sd43....couldn't decide between that and a sub....but I so prefer the bigger size of the sd43 so that decision was a bit easier lol

Op, both are great, I would then look at what I already have dial colors and bracelet material. TT are sweet especially the RG. If you like to match with your wardrobe that’s another option. There is no bad choice here!

Get the two-tone chocolate sunburst brown dial, way more elegant than the black one.
