Incoming DJ41

Picked this up at ad this morning. Having only ever owned subs, gmts, explorers and Daytonas, I am loving the feel of this piece. First time for me with this model, dial colour, jubilee bracelet. Classier and dressier feel which I need in my collection. For those wasting time on long waiting lists or paying big numbers on Grey, get whatever variation you like of these, I am pleasantly surprised!

Looks good, more substantial on the wrist than your Explorer (which is still one of my favorite Rolex models)

Dj feels light, the bigger dial defo gives more presence

Congratulations. It’s kinda funny. You ended up going the same way I did.

I’ve only ever owned sport/professional models as well but just picked up my Datejust 41 last week and love it. I was a bit apprehensive at first since professional models are all I’ve owned, but after I saw one in what was a configuration I really liked, and trying it on it was an easy choice.

Great watch. Congratulations.

Congratulations!

It's the Joe Biden watch, which immediately renders it unwearable.
