yes, case shape and width is different. i think the bezel proportions too. I'm not sure which dial youre referencing, but the the Rhodium dial on the 41 is totally different than the Rhodium dial on the DJ2, unless you're referencing the one with diamonds, in which case I'd say they're pretty similar, but I'm not sure of that.

the DJ 41 actually has a bezel of approx. 39.5mm it looks and feels different on the wrist.
When I tried both on the DJ 2 felt thicker, bigger and perhaps even heavier. it's noticeable in a side by side comparison.
I liked and bought the 41. If you can try both sizes on at the same time.

Me too. Tried the DJII but its proportions were out for me. DJ41 in slate was perfect...



Oh... and don't forget DJ41 brings you the jubilee (a MUST have) and the 3235 movement if you'd like quartz-like accuracy. Mine is 1 second fast at the moment, after 8 months.

DJ 41 is perfectly balanced and the slate with green romans was the ideal combination I was looking for. Btw, I chose the jubilee bracelet because I am a big fan of this style especially for two tone.
