My favorite watch

I wouldn't trade this watch for any Gruebel Forsey and Dufour in the world, to me the 36mm Datejust is the perfect watch.

Clean design, functional, elegant and understated unlike the fluted bezel, I completely get it.

It's not a Philippe Dufour

But it's simplicity done right. (See what I did there? šŸ˜‰)

I hear you :-)

It's a great over all watch, understated and "do it all". So I'll ask this: DJ 36 or OP 36? both blue Nearly identical, but should it be the date? some polished area's or no date and all brushed?

I love the cyclops and how practical the date is.

So for me it's either the DJ or the DD. The polished center links are a scratch magnet but I like them. The OP is a fantastic watch and is even more discreet so it's just a matter of personal taste!

Nor would I trade/sell mine. Perfect

I doubt anyone would trade their Dufour or Forsey for any RolexšŸ˜¬, but I get the point...

Iā€™m the same way with my Batman GMTII. Love is love! Enjoy.šŸ„‚

Yes, of course!

It's the sentimental value for me, it's not about the quality or price in this case.

Exactly!

Can't go wrong with DJ or DD. But I always prefer smooth bezel than fluted bezel

Its easier to dress down. And I like OP better, because more brushed parts and no cyclop.

I like the fluted bezel with a jubilee or president

But on oyster I feel like the domed bezel is better. I understand, not everyone likes the polished CL and the cyclops

+1

Iā€™m with you on the 36mm.

 
 By: Jay (Eire) : July 7th, 2022-22:44
For me itā€™s the perfect size, and while I may opt for a different execution as my personal favourite I understand your sentiment. The current OP lineup and the choices available at 36mm to me a great offering for a no fuss watch. As is the DJ. Of course s... 

Yes, 36 is perfect for me as well

 
 By: andrea~ : July 8th, 2022-06:39
Also I think that colourful dials are great to make simple watches more eye catching

Iā€™m strongly considering a DJ36 for my next (2nd) Rolex.

I was leaning towards a Submariner, but after wearing my 36mm Explorer, it is difficult to wear an additional 5mm! ...  

The new mint green dial is stunning!

 
 By: andrea~ : July 8th, 2022-06:40
I'm completely with you on this choice

I find it hard to disagree

Love it!

It is wonderful and could not agree more!

36 for me is perfect!
