Newbie and new Rolex

Hi All, long time lurker and first time poster.

I'm currently visiting family back in the UK so I decided to make the most of the good exchange rate and VAT refund by picking up the new DJ41 with rhodium diamond dial on Saturday. Absolutely loving it so far.

It will be mainly used for dressier occasions as it joins the GMTII I purchased just 6 months ago. I think I've definitely got the Rolex bug as my other watches haven't seen any wrist time since and I'm already on the list for the SS SkyD!

Picture attached hopefully

Beautiful DJ41... was not a fan of diamond dial for men until I put this exact combination of rhodium and diamond on at an AD, would probably be my choice too for a dressier watch.

It will be mainly used for dressier occasions as it joins the GMTII I purchased just 6 months ago. I think I've definitely got the Rolex bug as my other watches haven't seen any wrist time since and I'm already on the list for the SS SkyD!

Wow congrats! The rhodium dial DJ is an absolutely stunning piece and very understated and overlooked in my opinion. Your two-piece collection could not be any further from boring. It's awesome. Everyone buys a black sub and then a white or silver dial DJ, or vice versa as their first two. This unique duo is so cool. Enjoy. Great choices.

My thoughts precisely - good choice.
