I too have nice bonus coming in the next few weeks and will be buying a Rolex. Currently I wear a Seiko SKX and have an older Tag Heuer I got as a gift many years ago. I don't want a SubC, I'm looking at the Explorer 1 and Date Just. I initially wanted an Air King but slowly changed my mind. What made you go with a DJ36 instead of DJ41? And did you get yours from an AD in the Houston area or here on the forums?
Eric. Sorry for the late reply. Early congrats and I hope your bonus is greater than even anticipated. I don't think you can go wrong with any Rolex model, but felt something personal reach out to me with the DJ. The reason I got the DJ36 as opposed to the DJ41 is b/c when I tried on the DJ41 is looked a bit too "showy" on my small wrist. I felt that the DJ36's proportion to my wrist looked more timeless. I was going to purchase mine from an AD, but found a new one on True Facet which felt like a slight risk, but I'm glad I did as I saved some coin. Good luck!
