So with no further details, i am presenting you the 116334 DateJust II, Rhodium Dial, Silver Arabic Blue Markers.

Rolesor · 5 June 2010, 06:59 AM

Now that's a stunner!! thanks for sharing!

esm · 5 June 2010, 09:23 AM

great to see this thread coming back to life

Watch Professor · 5 June 2010, 09:36 AM

I tried one on and while I think it's beautiful, it's too big for my 6 1/2" wrist. 39 would have been perfect for a dressy watch.

JUSTROLEXES · 5 June 2010, 09:42 AM

A big congrats Panos and wear it in good health...
It is a Beauty

nickriebe · 5 June 2010, 09:46 AM

Thank you, Dan

It was the quickest purchase that i've done in my life.
It is so different from all my other watches plus the fact that i am a lover of the Arabic numerals left me no choice than to buy it in an afternoon !!!!
World record for me

esm · 7 June 2010, 05:39 AM

cool story Panos.

I have had a few quick / impluse buys myself and love it. Isnt it great when you are at the right place at the right time? ;-)

Hope this one stays with you for a long time. I'm sure your DJII will become a future classic.

It sure is but it also puts a lot of guilt in your mind when you realise what you've just did. But time heals everything...(excuses excuses)

esm · 7 June 2010, 06:01 AM

thats right mate. Life is too short, need to enjoy it to the fullest (excuse, excuse...) ;-)

aquasky · 23 June 2010, 02:56 PM

Hi guys, you gotta love the blue! It's hard to do justice to the beauty of the blue dial in my poor photos, but these 2 will give you an idea :P

regards,

JJ Irani · 23 June 2010, 03:02 PM

Some beautiful shots, guys. Some of the most stunning DJ-IIs I've seen in one thread!

These two are the most beautiful DJII in my eyes.

esm · 23 June 2010, 07:14 PM

shock horror.... a TT DJII on a NATO

(me looks at JJ - because i can

)

aquasky · 23 June 2010, 10:16 PM

You gotta swim with it next!

Esexx · 24 June 2010, 12:58 AM

I am usually not a "dress" watch kinda guy, but yesterday I walked into a local BB and was browsing the Rolex case. I tried on the DJII (WG bezel black face stick dial) and I like it a lot!

I think the 41mm is what really turns me on the the watch. For me, the smaller AK/DJ/DD just looked and felt too small.

This watch might prevent me from going over to the dark side!

esm · 24 June 2010, 01:04 AM

good luck ;-)

that wasnt the case for me....

Exactly, with the 41's, the Datejust has broken out of 'old men's territory', and attained a sportier cred.
I'd always thought I'd get a GMTIIC, but when I saw the DJII in the metal, I was won over. The bezel might be too blingy for some, but when one is approaching 40 years of age, one could be allowed a bit of bling :D

As a matter of fact, I was wearing my DJII when I went for a dip with my kid (not really a swim, it was at a kids' water amusement playground or whatever u call it), and I thought the watch looked just right at the pool!

BASSETHOUNDS · 24 June 2010, 01:42 AM

Same here but with the white face

theken · 24 June 2010, 01:52 AM

wrist shot tomorrow

AK40DJ50 · 24 June 2010, 07:23 AM

Here's mine. 3 weeks old, keeps perfect time, and since this shot all the stickers are now gone.

esm · 24 June 2010, 07:30 AM

love the baton at 9 oclock. It balances the date window quite well.
Kudos to Rolex for that ;-)

Bisquitlips · 24 June 2010, 07:42 AM

Beautiful! I want one!

I love this watch. How is the lume?

esm · 24 June 2010, 08:01 AM

not the "best" compare to other dial options. The only lume bits are the baton at 9 oclock, hour and minute hands.

Will see if I have a pic to post when I'm back on the laptop in the morning.

Ear Pain · 24 June 2010, 03:15 PM

Great thread, and refresh ttt......

Tried a lovely silver dial DJ II in the Schipol Rolex Boutique yesterday, fits like a glove and if I hadn't just purchased the Milgauss back in blighty a few days ago I would have been all over it like a rash....
