May I ask a technical question please .... I'm guessing your datejust is in the new style (heavier polished case, solid link band) so I'm intrigued as to how you got the diamond bezel to fit. I say this because I took my new DJ, and my diamond bezel (which had been on my previous DJ, a 1998 model) to various Rolex watchmakers and they all said that the bezels won't fit on the new style cases. Now that I've seen yours, I'm wondering if it's simply a matter of using a different (thicker) gasket? Did your jeweller have any issues with the fitting?

Yes, I have the newer style ladies DJ with the jubilee bracelet with the hidden clasp. The AD actually ordered the diamond bezel for me. So I guess they knew what would fit. There weren't any issues with the instal, but they ordered the bezel specifcally for my watch. The carat wt is .80 if that helps and there are 40 diamonds.
