Datejust II vs Datejust 41 (Side by side)

I am interested in the White Dial DJ. My local AD only has the newer 41 version but I have been searching the net all day to find a true comparison of the differences. I have seen many comparisons of the 2 models but with different features, colors, dials, numerals, etc.

Does anyone have both (in the exact same configuration) to post a pic of the 2 side by side. Is there a picture out there on the net that can show the difference of the same models side by side? I cant find one and want to see both next to each other to compare the differences.

it seems there are avid fans for both versions so I'd like to research a little before pulling the trigger.


Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the pic, but unfortunately it doesn’t help much. The older model looks bigger so I’m concerned that the newer model would be too small. But I don’t like the consistency of markers and hands


Any other pics?

Go to a used dealer, they'll have both, pics aren't going to help you.

Agree with this 100% — only thing that pics will do is highlight the larger markers on the dial of the DJII — anything else is quite tough to tell, in terms of the dimensions.

Putting them in your wrist will show a huge difference - as they wear quite differently.

I have the 41 — the II, to me always seemed a little chunky for a DJ....

Good luck!!
