Nice choice, congrats

The 39 mm oyster case is perfect for my wrist. As you see from my sig, I also own a white dial OP 39, which I enjoy immensely, but I would say it would be perfect if it had the slanted bezel of the Explorer instead of the convex one it has. I don't own a DJ, but if Rolex ever decide to make a 39 mm variant with this case, I'll be first in line.

The Oyster, the polished bezel, the 39 mm size; it all just comes together to make a simple, classic and elegant watch.

Thanks everyone. Loving it so far! On a trip at the moment. Saw an old guy in the plane with an Oyster Quartz! He was too far away for me to strike up a conversation.

Beautiful!

I had need for something simple, and glad to pick it up.

Acquired new From Takuya, who is always great. Maybe the best customer service.

Congratulations!!! Looks fantastic.

BTW- what is your wrist size?

nick800 · 12 May 2019, 05:29 AM
