DJ question

I know many here are experts on the sports models, but I have a DJ question I hope someone can answer.

On the new DJ models, which combinations and which dials have the roulette date wheel? (red/black) Do they still make the black/red date wheel or was that only for a short time?

I remember reading somewhere that they only made the red/black date wheel for a short period of time to bring back a little retro style of the old DJs. But like with most rumors heard about Rolex, it is best to come to these boards to see what the real scoop is.

So, black red/date wheel here to stay or was it only for a short time? Any idea which DJ models get it and which ones dont?

Hi Mark,

This is how it seems to work.

The new TT DJs only have an alternating red/black date wheel...with even dates in black and odd dates in red.

The SS DJs have date wheels with all BLACK dates on them.

The new TOGs have date wheels with all RED dates on them.

Cheers - JJ

Thanks JJ,

I was looking at SS/WG DJs. Some seemed to have the red black date wheel while others were just all black. The dealer said it depended on the dial color. But which ones he did not know.
