About to Pull the trigger on one of these... Can't make up my mind on the dial I want.Torn between a YG with a White/Silver Dial like @ts0ts0s has or a Champagne dial...Anyone have a YG with champagne dial they can share?
My opinion is to go with the white dial cause yellow gold already attracts the eye,maybe it will be too yellowish on the wrist if it has the champagne dial also..

Go a few pages back and check my pics. I had both of these side by side.

You can consider me part of the day date crew!

They are great looking watches. You guys will definitely be happy :)

Mine is with mike rite now being modded. After much deliberation I've decided to install a prof. AR instead of the gen xstal. I've never used a 2 AR for a Rolex but I think it's really going to make the gold Roman numerals really pop! I can't wait to get it back :)

Toro messed up my order but he is fixing it now. So now I have two choices. Should I accept this piece of wait for the black dial that I asked for? I think it's ok to post these up because I never asked for this watch.

Do you see any flaws in this piece? Or would you jump on it asap??

Looks good to me. Most important the numbers are evenly spaced. This was a big problem with the 1st batches of dials but BP seemed to fix it.

Still haven't pulled the trigger @TokyoWrist ...Procrastinator to the fullest. Your QC Pics look awesome though!

@Versaceboy54 is that a gen DD40 in your profile pic with the gold dial? If that's a rep it looks amazing, and it might sway me back to the champagne dial.

Thanks for the compliments :) The one with the gold dial is the BP wrapped!

Your partially correct. Rolex doesn't use AR on the xstal itself but they do under the cyclops.

Even though it's not like gen I've decided to do 2AR bc I think it's going to make the dial really pop. Its really just a personal taste thing. I love the way it looks on my APs so now I'm trying on Rolex :)

Has anyone ordered the Noob version of these? I like the better day wheels, but would like to see someone who has one
