I have the DD with diamond bezel, should I leave it this way or put the flute back on it, i kind of like it both ways.

horseco · 19 April 2011, 01:03 PM

fluted bezel...

kareemthedream33 · 19 April 2011, 01:04 PM

Hello, it all depends on the personal opinion of the person wearing the watch. But to me, that is way too much bling. I would much prefer the fluted bezel without any diamonds at all.

MonBK · 19 April 2011, 01:05 PM

Add diamonds to the lugs and bracelet.

SWIMPRUF · 19 April 2011, 01:05 PM

Fluted.

Beeper · 19 April 2011, 01:07 PM

Fluted for me, but really it all depends on what you like...

Newportkrieger · 19 April 2011, 01:10 PM

Put the fluted bezel back on .....UNLESS you are:

1) Mafia captain or higher
2) Pawn shop owner
3) Lotto winner previously on welfare
4) Run/own your own evangelical TV church
5) Labor union boss
6) Government employee
7) Rap musician
8) Charlie Sheen
9) Democratic congressman representing blighted urban districts

levirichardson · 19 April 2011, 01:13 PM

LOL - mafia maybe,

slickrick68 · 19 April 2011, 01:13 PM

Due to the diamonds on the dial I say keep it classy with the fluted bezel.

With the dark diamond dial you have a great contrast with the gold. IMHO the diamond bezel just takes away from the whole character of the watch and "washes it out" with diamonds. Besides, given you are mafiaoso, your pinky ring should give you all the extra diamond "flash" you need.

MonBK · 19 April 2011, 01:20 PM

Hmmm, I thought the whole idea of a diamond bezel was to ADD character?

godowning · 19 April 2011, 01:25 PM

fluted

MortgageGuy · 19 April 2011, 01:32 PM

Love the diamonds, I say keep it the way it is it looks great

horseco · 19 April 2011, 01:34 PM

I live in New Jersey, even the mobsters go easy on the diamond bezels these days.... hahahahah!!!!

1bad750 · 19 April 2011, 01:34 PM

I dont have diamonds on my dd, but those look nice.

TKB · 19 April 2011, 01:37 PM

diamonds all day.

dbphotos · 19 April 2011, 01:58 PM

I have a DD with the fluted bezel and it is probably the most classic look, however I like the look of your diamond bezel. The diamonds are not too big and they look right with that watch.

Bottom line is it is a personal choice.

StarSovereign · 19 April 2011, 02:06 PM

I'd put the fluted bezel back on. It's so iconic...

watchf · 19 April 2011, 04:16 PM

MB7000 · 19 April 2011, 05:04 PM

OpusXIII · 17 November 2021, 04:13 AM

Keep it as is. Looks great. If you didn't already have the diamond dial, then I'd go with the fluted bezel. But the diamond bezel definitely compliments/completes the overall look coupled with that dial. Can't go wrong either way, however. It's all about what jingles your berries.

Easy choice, get both!

vh2k · 17 November 2021, 04:55 AM

So-called “watch enthusiasts” generally shun diamond bezels… but many super rich who see luxury watches as jewelry enjoy the look of gem-set dials, bezels, cases, and bracelets.

I am sure that OP already made his choice in the 10 years that has passed since the question was initially asked - How on earth does a post like this surface
