Rolex TT YG DJ 26mm

Hello!

I am looking to purchase my first YG TT DJ in 26mm in either diamond markers with white dial or diamond markers with silver dial.

Thoughts on which to get? Super conflicted!

I have other watches and in terms of Rolex, I have a OP 34mm Date with stick markers and a black dial so looking for something a little dressier but still able to wear it everyday.

Welcome to the forum.

I personally like the silver dial. That isn’t the best picture of it. In real life it’s quite a chameleon.

Thanks both! So including another one - this is one with a rhodium grey dial
Again I think it looks quite nice - but is it too dark for a small watch and / or dated?

Here's a couple of shots of my wife's silver DD dial (could be a 28mm, can't remember) from 2017...





At that time she decided to trade it in for a DJ31, TT, silver roman with diamond "sweepings" at 6 and a scattered diamond bezel, as under (I bought a DJ41 at the same time)...





As has been said, the silver dial picks up other colours from your surroundings and takes on different hues. The white dial is very flat and one dimensional on the other hand.

Have you considered a DJ31 or are you feeling limited by either wrist size or budget?
