New DJ Movement

Does anyone know the specific pros and cons of the new DJ 41 movement? Is it worth trading in my DJ II? Thanks!

There is no Rolex that is worth trading in just so you can get the latest movement iteration. The new movements are excellent though.

You get a newer movement because that is a desire to have. Either will last you a lifetime.

What he said. I have heard it to be an excellent accurate movement with a longer power reserve. Time will tell on reliability but I have no reason to doubt that either, but as they say first/second year of anything new typically has hiccups.

I'm sorry to whoever owns a watch with a 3235, but I can't wait to take one apart and repair it So please break one already!

Lol I cannot wait for some feedback from watchmakers and such once they get some use, bangs, and service outcomes from tear downs.

Caliber 32XX is a beautiful movement, the main advantage is the 70 hour power reserve..
other than that you probably won’t notice any difference from the 3136 in your DJ II.
