Appreciate the pics.

Your wrist is slightly bigger than mine and I have to say the watch looks good.
Doesn't look too small at all.

Hmmmm... Think I may have to pay my AD a visit.

Whilst not my personal "Rolie of choice", I think you definitely made the right choice with the ivory dial. Nice one. :thumbsup:

As I recall from trying one on, the increased width of the fluted bezel over the old DJ gives it a flash and a presence which makes it look larger in life than it is.

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

Just what I was going to say. Doesn't look so bad now... Congrats!

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