I love the 36mm DJ.
I have a 7.5" wrist and it still has great wrist presence. I currently own three 36 mm DJ. This happens to be my latest and the one I am wearing today.

Here's mine, right before I realized that the Lume on the minute hand had come off after the last service. It's back at the shop for a (free) replacement of the Lume. Looking forward to getting it back soon.

Love mine! My next watch will probably be the SS with either a blue or silver face on an oyster bracelet.

I do love my Datejust, but so does my daughter, to whom I loaned it temporarily. A few years ago! Here it is when it was in my rotation. Liz wears it every single day, so I feel good that it is being enjoyed.

Enjoying my 16234 past fall for a few days, it is now back in hibernation in the vault.
I think I wore this watch for less than a month in total since I got it in 1997.

It's a 116234. White gold bezel, stainless steel. Not sure of the year. I have the boxes and papers packed away, and my daughter has the watch.

With hopes that this cousin isn't too far removed from the Datejust family for this thread, here's my '91 16263 (Datejust) Thunderbird recently serviced by Rik. I've worn it frequently since 1995. Jim
