Incoming Purchased New Today From AD!

First time visit to an AD out of state. Left with this! Sold out of exhibition case after I reminded them it was discontinued!

Walks out of an AD same day with a Mint Green Motiff? That's pretty impressive. Such a great color, been waiting for my call for my 36mm mint

I was very lucky. I go into ADs anytime I travel and this was a real stroke of luck! I would have preferred fluted bezel but I actually upon wearing it out really like the smooth bezel. It goes well with the dynamic dial.

I generally prefer fluted/jubilee on Datejusts but your smooth/oyster combo goes perfect with that dial.

Very nice spec! Always prefer the oyster with smooth bezel on the busier dials such as this one or Romans. Very nice piece!

Nice watch! Congrats!

I thought about reminding them of the same at my local AD a couple weeks back. They still had a few motif dials marked exhibition only, but shouldn’t be doing so with discontinued watches. I didn’t need another DJ though. Lol

Congrats on your great looking DJ41. I prefer the smooth bezel as it is more versatile and sporty imho. Your right that the dial is discontinued, very unique. Great that you had good luck at an AD outside of your area, I've done the same. Enjoy and wear it in good health. Cheers!
