Solid gold watches are nice....the 116718 is very nice

Good watch to buy and keep but not sell...that's what I have for you

solid YG watches hard as hell to sell one! So make sure you like then buy

Hi all, since we're on the thread "which rolex to buy", I'm a bit confused about the difference between the "silver" diamond dial on ladies DJ and the "rhodium" diamond dial on a ladies DJ. I saw one TT ladies DJ with a diamond dial but the dial is a very dark shade or silver/grey, actually about the shade of the SS part of the TT bracelet. Is the "rhodium" dial a darker shade of silver? It looks very classy as the diamond markers don't really stand out so much, so its a muted sort of "bling" and the dial looks like the SS part of the TT bracelet and blends in very well ... Can Rollie gurus pls enlighten the newbie? Thanks guys...

Not much difference though...I think I got the right pics though to compare...tell me if i m wrong.

But it's nice the rhodium 1

Rhodium


Silver

my choice is rhodium personally, silver a bit bland i know because i wearing one

[mickey2006]

Gosh...darkie's right...I can't really tell the diff...looks almost the same to my untrained (and newbie..) eyes...but in the pics darkie posted, I think the silver one looks more "sparkling and shiny" than the rhodium one...but other than that, the shade of colour looks not much diff....

thanks fr yr comments.. i know it is hard to sell but when i check the after market gold watches (sports ie sub), it is also not that cheap. guess fewer buyers and also fewer sellers of used watches.

how do we tell from sight, between a WG daytona and a SS daytona ?

[seiko.citizen]

different dial/hand combos on the different models

Oh that's easy...

WG


SS


WG Daytonas come with a variety of dials,markers like Arabic,roman which is not available in SS.

While...SS Daytonas come in only 2 colours,black and white....and stick markers only.

Hehehe...

1 reason why I won't get a WG watch is because....it looks like SS and more expensive than YG

[seiko.citizen]

for me no difference because i WG material somemore i feel that YG abit to obvious, WG more subtle, but alot noticable compare to SS
