NEW DATEJUST PURCHASED HOUR AGO! Pics!!
All, I couldn't resist this DJ. Purchased from AD about 1 hour ago, and I ran here to put up pictures. It is my first foray into the 36mm classic Rolex size. I love the 40mm's too, but this one just sits so well on my wrist. Enjoy pics...anyone else have this watch, I'd love to hear how it has grown with you....

sorry for crappy iphone shots...

Congratulations! Great choice!

Here's mine:



and on a strap:



and with his big brother:



I must admit that he looked a bit small at first but now the size is classically perfect. And the domed bezel goes well with the oyster bracelet.

Enjoy yours as I have mine.

Very nice!

I tried on that exact watch a couple weekends ago. What made you go with the round bezel over WG?

Not a huge fan of the jubilee, and didn't like oyster band with fluted bezel....plus I'm not a fan of a tired looking fluted bezel after a few years, even though it looks beautiful.

Lovely watch. You can't go wrong with a Roman dial.
