Daydate Disappointment

[SZP]

Daydate 36mm Black Dial from GMF- combo doesn’t exist!​

Just received this watch. My fault for not doing research beforehand but this dial only exists on the 40mm. Currently Rolex does not make a 36mm Daydate with a black dial. Previous 36mm with black dials had Roman numerals on the side. I am so bummed! Also surprised GM would make this watch when it doesn’t exist.

Not a big deal, just change the dial

Honestly I don’t think you need to worry about too much about this.

How many people are going to notice it’s a 36mm vs 40? Of those who will now the available dial variations?

Enjoy the watch you bought in the configuration you wanted.

Is this the non weight gain version?

I’m on the lookout for a YG black dial one but different markers. I wish I had the skills to change dials. I do plan to learn some how, some day

+1.

If someone is knowledgeable enough to know that the 36mm version black dial has tiny roman numerals on the chapter ring of the dial AND has proficient enough eyes to notice it, they'll be able to call this watch on at least two dozens other things.

Watch looks great IMO so just enjoy it. If you get bogged down on that kind of details your rep journey will be very frustrating.
