I've been thinking of picking up the classic 36mm TTDJ on a jubilee, and I was just curious how much wrist time your TTDJ gets these days.

(btw, I was going to post a poll but don't see any option to do so)

Thanks!

DJ TT 2002 · 1 January 2014, 01:19 AM

Just sold my TT DJ,

This was after more than a decade of daily wear!
With the SubC and GMTII in my collection, the DJ wasn't seeing any wrist time at all. It also began to look too small by comparison.
Just MHO, but I've moved on. I did truly love it in its day, nevertheless.
Long eulogy, sorry.

Annan · 1 January 2014, 01:20 AM

Up until a few months ago when I got an EXPII (42mm) my DJ was my daily wearer because it was my only Rolex. My EXP has taken over because I now save my DJ for dressier occasions. So, I wear it about twice a week and still love it!

From what I've seen on your postings, you have one beautiful DJ.

timely · 1 January 2014, 01:29 AM

about once a week

rmfnla · 1 January 2014, 01:34 AM

Daily; it's my grail...

greatgoo · 1 January 2014, 01:32 AM

I wear my 16013 daily. It's my only watch though.

motoikkyu · 1 January 2014, 01:55 AM

Mines in the shop right now. Goes with everything. Wear it often.

Jack T · 1 January 2014, 02:05 AM

It's not TT but it gets a day or two a week, when I'm in a suit.

And tonight it will be on my wrist when the ball drops!

Mr. K · 1 January 2014, 02:07 AM

About once a week, the Sub with a dress shirt just feels strange to me. Can be done for sure, but the DJ just feels like a better fit.

phils · 1 January 2014, 02:13 AM

I wear my tt, blue dial, jubilee, fluted bezel DJ about once a week.
It is a classy looking and tough watch.
The trick with any bracelet is to keep it clean to lessen stretch.
I alternate it with my Sub.

DVR · 1 January 2014, 02:43 AM

Great choice !! You won't regret it.

I have several Rolexes and the datejust gets the most wrist time together with my SUB LV-C.
It is definitely one of my favorites.

I have two in my rotation. They get equal time.

I wear my TT Turn-o-graph on all work days that need a dress shirt and tie.
Then it's a sub for the casual days
Cheers and definitely check with some of the sellers here and if you have something specific in mind they can probably source it for you.

Laszlo · 1 January 2014, 05:32 AM

I don't have a TT, but my 116234 DJ gets equal wrist time with my 114060 Sub-C. I absolutely love the DJ. And if I start building up a true collection, it will be the DJ lineage.

Rolex74 · 1 January 2014, 05:36 AM

I had a DJ brand new in 2008, then a month later bought a Sub, wore the sub all the time, in 2012 traded the DJ as part of the deal for my DSSD, I know have a DJII and wear it a lot, I found the DJ 36mm to be too small for me.

Nissanzx1 · 1 January 2014, 05:34 AM

I wear mine at least 2 days a week currently. I LOVE it!

porschejeff · 2 January 2014, 05:02 AM

After about 6 months of ownership, I flipped mine. Kind of miss it though, it was a beauty RG/SS.

GREAT AVATAR!!!
You will love the DJ, it is a classic.

superdelsol · 2 January 2014, 12:23 PM

If you pick up a preowned 36mm Datejust priced right, and find it's not to your liking, you can probably sell it for what you paid, as there is a huge market for this model.

Rags · 2 January 2014, 10:33 AM

Love my TT DJ. I usually wear it for more formal occasions.

superdelsol · 2 January 2014, 12:20 PM

I find that I wear my 36mm TT Datejust more often than the others in my small Rolex collection. It has the classic jubilee bracelet, fluted bezel, and champagne dial. I wasn't sure I'd like the Rolex diamond dial, but I got used to it.
