Rolex AD told him he needs to buy more

This poor guy was told he cannot get any of the special references only junk DJ’s and needs to bundle up for one of the nice pieces.

Despite enthusiast obsession with "sports" and "professional" models, to most sane folks a Rolex Datejust is very far from "junk"

I’d have worn no watch - have people for keeping others on time for meetings with me.

But I’ve got to nod to one who has good taste.

One man's junk is another man's beloved Datejust.

DateJoe to some

It's all about health, happiness & family. The rest are just necessary inconveniences we have to deal with.

If he wore an ALS or Vacheron, this wouldn’t be a story at all.

I’m not a fan of DateJust bigger than 36mm.
However, I wouldn’t call it “ Junk.”
