Incoming - DJ41

Hey guys,

To cut a long storey short, a few years ago I had to sell up my collection of Rolex’s and today I’ve been fortunate enough to re-join the family!

I’ve just taken delivery of this gorgeous 2017 DJ41.

Im totally in love with the watch already and the polished surfaces are mesmerising from all angles!

I was worried with a 7.5inch wrist how the watch would wear (coming from a ceramic sub previously) but I love the way it wears!

As I’m sure you can tell....I’m happy!! 🙂

One of my favorite DJ41 combos. I love the simplicity of the smooth bezel and Oyster bracelet. I have looked at this one recently at my AD, and was very tempted. I have an Explorer 1, though, but I still love the look of this DJ41. Possibly the most versatile Rolex models, maybe even more than the Explorer 1.

I also love the black dial on this one. With the subtle sunburst effect, it really adds a richness to the dial IMO.

Congratulations!

Cheers,
Carl

Looks amazing! I love the combo, and that smooth bezel really pops with the black dial.

I have the same watch and really like it. A cross between a traditional DJ and a sport model. Great design ethos.
