To.......16233 or 116233 or DJII ?

Today is decision day. I'm going to get a DJ but I'm on the ropes about which one to get.

1. 16233
2. 116233
3. DJII

I've tried all three on and all have qualities that I love and do not love. I've found all three at good price points and ready to by. In the grand scheme of things this is a great dilemma to be in.

I would hold off on that decision until you are sure.

Right now, it's sounding like none of the above.

Of those three I would go for the 116233. Gorgeous watch.

It is a tough one, as the owner of a 5 digit stainless/wg, 36mm I really love softer lugs. The six digit reference is so solid though, a true luxury bracelet and clasp. My wife likes the old clasp on me, says the hidden clasp is too ladylike! I love them both but in reality I think I would buy the most modern version and go for the 116233. Good luck and let us know with some pics!

Option 1 and 2 for me, never a fan of the DJII.

Sounds discouraging when he listed a short list above.

Good Luck we know you will get one!
