IMHO, neither.. but that is just me.. they are both too small for my liking. I would go for a used Rolex Sub in this price range.

I think the OP might be a woman. Anyways, I would definitely pick the AP over the datejust.

If you have a Happy Sport the logical choice would be the 36mm DJ. Fit and finish of the AP is outstanding however at your age and interest in stones I will go against the consensus in the thread and say the DJ.

If you are male, those pieces are quite small by most standards. Especially given your age IMO. Anyway, AP would be my choice as a whole, but a Rolex might be the best jumping off point given where you're at with your collection.

What I want to know is, who comes and registers here, and immediately proceeds to asking for our opinion in their very first post, then disappears.
