Hi All,

What do folks think of the new DD40 dials that were released this year?
- RG Slate Ombre
- YG Green Ombre
- WG Blue Ombre

I've been after a DD40 for a little while now, but perpetually (see what I did there) stuck with picking an option that's best complements other Rolex watches in the collection (DJ41 Blue Stick Fluted/Jubilee, Choc OF Daytona, BLNR - Oyster).

Do any of the above supersede the RG Olive if I'm looking for a 'harder' to get DD and one that best complements my collection?

I was very intrigued by the Slate Ombre. However, the press pictures and photos are quite varied in appearance, and wondering whether it overlaps too much with the other dials in my Rolex collection.

I tried on the YG Green Lacquer recently but didn't really love that look either. I'm also not too interested in the MOP dials.

Thanks for the input!
