Double salute from my pair of DJs!

Her DJ his DJ II

mikkolopez · 22 February 2013, 04:54 PM

Well here is what I have in the rotation

Rickk · 22 February 2013, 05:12 PM

I really dig my 116233, only ROLEX I have ever been interested in and plan to wear it to the end.

There are some really beautiful DJII's but you have to have the wrist for them or they will look too big. And, being a super Jubilee fan, the DJII is a non-starter. I too would love to see them offer the DJII with the Jubilee.

Good luck with whatever you choose, I'm sure you will love it.

I love mine, and I'm strongly considering adding a sibling for it later this year.

VADanno · 23 February 2013, 12:28 AM

I'm looking at a solid gold DJ to replace my white gold Turn-O-Graph. I love the 36mm size, and bought the Turn-O-Graph as the best choice for a one watch collection. Now I'm thinking a SS Sub and the solid gold DJ are my grail.

+1. More so the DJ if you ask me.

BigDoug · 23 February 2013, 05:29 PM

I love the 16013 but I want the super jubilee braclet. Also the fact that the solid links reduce the stretch is a big factor. How long can one wear a 16013 DJ? How long will the movement stay strong and how long until the stretch becomes to much of an issue?

Dionissis · 23 February 2013, 05:46 PM

Here is mine!

GRabens · 24 February 2013, 01:39 AM

Attached are our three.

The Joker · 24 February 2013, 02:45 AM

Love DJ's. Prefer the classic size.

Swiss_Time_Watches · 24 February 2013, 02:46 AM

I haven't had mine very long but I love it, discrete (well discrete as a gold Rolex can be) and classy. I agree that along with the sub its thee iconic Rolex. Prefer the original to the DJII

Ditto here...!

hitman23 · 24 February 2013, 03:20 AM

I agree that 36 feels small, but I've always loved the stick dial of the DJ. Very classic and well proportioned. If only it came in 38-40mm, I think it would be perfect. The new 41 DJII seems a bit too large for my taste.

BigDoug · 24 February 2013, 04:53 AM

I've yet to actually have one on my wrist, but I hope I either fall in love with it or hate it. It will make the decision easier.

So to the DJII owners, how does it feel on the wrist?

Thanks I love this watch dial. It looks even better in person. My biggest concern with the DJII has quickly become my biggest surprise. It's amazing how easily it slips itself under the cuff on my dress shirts. Never catches or binds on them. Fantastic.

Veri nice pics.

I throw mine into the collection....

leica · 24 February 2013, 10:02 AM

Just love how the flute and jubilee catch & reflect light so that it glitter and shimmer...great dress watch..

canek · 24 February 2013, 10:02 AM

I love my 16013 with factory diamond jubilee dial.

corkscrew · 24 February 2013, 10:15 AM

I tried on a DJII and thought it was darn near perfect. I think Rolex did a great job with it. The 36mm seems too small nowadays. But, I have a 7.5" wrist. I think it's fine for those with smaller wrists.

BigDoug · 24 February 2013, 06:01 PM

My wrist is 7.75 inches. So my question is, is 36mm just to small in this day and age?

I've worn mine since I bought it in 1982. It's been serviced four times.

I replaced the original jubilee band (and also the fluted bezel; see avatar) about two years ago, but not because of "stretch" (really wear) only for the look.

I take my watch into the shower at least once a week (more in hot weather) and use shampoo on the band, and I'm convinced that is why it still looks good.

I think if you clean it regularly it will last a long time...

DottyParka · 26 February 2013, 05:26 AM

I have the 31mm TT DJ and think it is perfect, however, I did not want one that was oversized. I think 36mm would be as small as a gentleman would want to go.ImageUploadedByTapatalk1361820394.909547.jpg
