I don't know, the black did really look good. Are you sure you made the right decision?

:lol: I know the black did really POP.. I just think after some time with it, the Ivory will just make more sense and be more versatile/practical. (IMO)

You seem underwhelmed by it..."I'm happy with the ivory". I wouldn't pull the trigger unless you were in love with it.

What's important is that you like it/are happy enough to be willing to pay the significant bucks for a two-tone. Though I voted for the black, primarily for romans over sticks with gold, I do think the ivory gives the watch an overall less heavy and more subtle look than the black. I still think a little subtlety with gold is a good thing.

I have to say I voted black from the initial pics, but I am now thinking it is a 50/50 split. No wrong choices with this watch at all. Very classy and timeless piece

Very nice!

I'm actually looking at the DJII black dial with Roman numerials.
Only thing I'm not sure about is I'm used to big watches, currently wearing an SA.

Any chance you could post some more wrist pics.
Also, what size is your wrist?

Cheers

Very sick watch!
The ivory was a great choice imo.
& the batons go very well with the two tone.
LOVE the DJII !!

well done.

I also have a SA and I would say the DJII fits obviously not nearly as big, but comfortable as all hell! My wrist is approx 7.25". Pics will come shortly.
