Green on green.
I've had some busy days.
Large tenders, important deadlines, tough negotiations.
No time to take care of my favorite hobby.
No time to think about what I wear and whether I might do sports in the evening and jog around the office.
For that I needed a watch that can do everything. Which is „uncomplicated“ and reliable. That I can wear anywhere and anytime.
This is how my Rolex Day Date 40 came into play. Again after a long time. And it literally melts into my wrist. As if made of one piece.
All the best

Thanks a lot, Bill.
I appreciate your taste and watch collection very much. So many great pieces!! Best Thomas
Thanks a lot, mon ami!
I forgot to mention that I made a different version of this wrist shot especially for you. 😁 But I didn't manage to cover the weekday window as well. That would probably only work with a PR-indication. 😂 Seriously: here the date and day indications are pa...
Thanks a lot, Motty!
For me it is clearly the most beautiful version of the Day Date series. When I decided for the green dial 5 years ago I was afraid that I would get tired of looking always at this green or that it would not fit everywhere. The opposite is the case. The wa...
I feel the same.
I sold the Day Date in 36 mm about 10 years ago. The Day Date 40 brought many improvements (movement, proportions of the case, bracelet) but I confess I should have kept the smaller version, too. Best Thomas ...
Thank you, dear Chronometer!
Classic and timeless for sure. And goes with anything. ...
I still cannot believe I had this exact model on my wrist when visiting my AD just before Covid in 2019 and decided to think about it for a week-end...I never saw it again :-(!
I do remember this being one of the most comfortable bracelet watch I ever tried! Enjoy yours!
Sometimes in life
you just have to take a chance. At least if you are 100 percent sure emotionally and nothing else stands in the way of the decision (e.g. financial limits). And as you know there are always new good opportunities. You just have to keep your eyes open. So ...
Thank you.
I also like this version with the Roman numerals best. The only disadvantage: the dial is more difficult to read in the dark.
Absolutely one of my favorites. I just was at my AD
I was just at my A.D. and inquired about this reference. Wear this beauty in good health my friend, all the best, Tony
Thanks a lot, my dear friend!
Tony, I think it would suit you very well personally and compliment your collection (as far as I know it) perfectly. All the best Thomas
It’s different shades of green
are really fascinating, orahu. It completely depends on the light conditions. Thanks for looking! 🙏☺️ Thomas ...
Dear Marc, you are too kind! 🙏☺️
I am just playing around wit my iPhone 11. So nothing special. But I do it with passion at least. ☺️ Cheers Thomas ...
I kept it in the safe for a few weeks
and cannot understand now, why. Too many options now. I really don't have a watch anymore in my collection that I don't like to wear. First world luxury problems… 🙏 Thanks a lot, Erik!
MUCH prefer this WG than RG with olive green dial.
I own both RG and WG olive green dial but I use the WG only as I find it very versatile and low key as a daily.
Thanks for your kind words, janef.
I tried both. And although I am definitely not against RG (anymore), I agree with your, that the WG with green dial here works better. Best Thomas
