SS Choice ???
Just got a call from my AD.
Been bothering him over the years about SS Roli's. Most, he wanted a premium or list (don't do list on anything, expecially Roli's). Says, I should get a SS DJII. Here's the question: Plain Bezel or Fluted??? Still get 30 off list. Says to stop in and we all know where that path leads. |

I'd get the smooth and save the money. It's also sportier looking which fits the 41mm size better IMO. If you were getting a 36mm DJ then I'd vote fluted on jubilee.

I love the way light reflects off my fluted bezel when driving the car. My kids always notice it, as well.
I will miss that, if (when) I add a Sub-C to my collection and it gets rotated into daily wear. |

FLUTED all the way! Hides dings and scratches better than smooth.

Boy.......what a toss up.

I prefer the fluted bezel on DJs. Like brushed versus polished CLs, it just seems the fluted bezel would hide scratches better.
