looks great mate!
the SS roman numeral wears beautifully!

here is my contribution for the day



your Sub vs. DJII pic is great - this will give other members abit of size comparison. the 41mm DJII is not bigger than 40mm Sub

That's not a postie bike, is it Justin?

41mm is good for me but to me it looks like they put the wrong size winding crown on it.
They should have gone the whole way with a triplock.

I am waiting to see the 41mm DJ 11 with white Romans and a smooth bezel.

imo - i think the crown is a right size against the new 41mm.... so it will not look too bulky/large. a larger crown with the larger bezel may not be a good look.

great shots!
So the only lume on the DJII with roman numerals are the hands and the one at the 9 o'clock position? Wonder why they didn't make the lume similar to the ones with arabic numerals?

Looks like you already have a SS and white w/stick markers but here's mine anyway.



You really do have to see this watch in person in order to appreciate how much it pops while still keeping the classic DJ feel.

And 41mm seems just about right for my gangly thin wrists/big hands combo.

Making the DJ and the DD bigger and creating the DJ II and DD II was much needed and long over due IMHO . while the 36 mm is just as nice it is much too little for me. Great shots guys

Uh oh. Might as well bite the bullet and do it. Once the thought enters your mind, there's really only one way to get a release. Rolex addictions can be very compelling.

Pictures have convinced me to get one. The only question is which variant? I still have to see in person or even a just wristshot of the steel/yg with black dial in arabic or roman. Anyone owns these variants here?

not yet I'm afraid. Remember seeing a thread about one of the forum members getting one.... So we will have to wait for the pix.

I hope the wrist shots make it to this thread - fingers crossed.
