Was looking for a daily wearer for a while now
Considered a few candidates....something to go with my almost daily work watch of my JLC RDM and Lange 1815.
Last weekend took the family and we decided to stop by a few ADs to scout and get opinions with a shortlist in hand and the this came up tops among a very competitive list.
What can I say, I love it, love the size, the timeless design, the robustness for just about anything, relatively under the radar compared to its more illustrious and recognised brethren....and for me, that roulette date disc is the icing on the cake.
The simple Datejust 36.

You can’t go wrong with the Datejust 36
and +1 on that red date wheel! It just POPS out with that subdued white landscape 😍 If this one whispers in your heart, she wants to go home with you... I hope to be seeing her on our next GTG 😃
Hope to see more pics of this, Richard..
Quite a watch. I remember trying on a 36 a few years back and was quite surprised at the presence it had on the wrist considering the size. On you, it looks pretty good! We need to see more DJs here Best, Echi
Thank, Echi!
Wrist presence definitely belies it’s size. The 41 is way too big for my wrist, but this one sits perfectly.
here is mine ..a vintage Datejust 1601
Gilty at night, tropical by day. Something about this case. That makes it bigger than 36mm and well proportioned .. ...
Really looks like a very “experienced” life
Very very nice! And yes, the case wears much bigger than the numbers suggest, plus I much prefer the bracelets that has all three links brushed. The polished center links of the current oyster bracelets just attract way too many finger prints.
Perfect is what I saw on another blog....time will tell if it really is
I think in a "one watch" scene, it may well be perfect.
Thank you, my friend.
I have to admit that the charm is definitely strong. Was debating between this and the AirKing that yours inspired me with, but seeing that it shares the same case and movement as my Milgauss, I decided on this one instead.
The Turn-O-Graph!
Nice one, and not often seen. The red hand goes so well with the date
