No, a Rolex President. It has the day of the week on the dial

Between those two DateJusts there is no bad choice.

I would sell the one with the highest value and keep the other as a backup.

You won't need them with the Day-Date. Trade them both.

To me the datejust looks like a budget day date.

You and I seem to have very different tastes; I prefer watches that many consider to be "boring", such as the Explorer and the no date Submariner, and I'm not a big fan of gold or diamonds.

That being said, if I were in your position, I would keep the watch with the white dial. That would offer the most variety with respect to color.

I like the more unique look of the blue dial. Never have been a fan of mother of pearl dials.
Have you considered selling / trading both and going all in?

Sell both DJs. And keep both girlfriends.
Was that one of the choices?

OK ………. sell either one you choose, give the other away. This way you’re only selling one watch.

Was the Day window much smaller before? This image from Rolex.com shows the Day window to be much bigger.

Sell both … neither are keepers in my opinion. You’ll also have to add a lot of money to get a DD

I’m in the sell both camp as well. If I had to keep one, it would be the one that got the lowest offer.

If I had a President in the collection, the remaining DJ wouldn’t get wrist time.

President is a Day Date; there are gold Date Justs for men but they're older. The only President DJ is for women. Is that what you are after?
