A local AD received their first DJ41 last night and I was lucky enough to be the first to try it on. What a watch! This is the first TT that I could zealously wear. Such a beauty.

As nice as it is I'd prefer a stainless steel version with a smooth bezel.

When do you expect Rolex will announce a stainless steel Datejust 41? In one year? Two years? Three?

Not soon enough

Looking good

Any pics of the clasp? How did it look in person with the claps now they have moved away from the concealed version?

It looks good enough, but I was expecting an Easylink extension and it doesn't have one! I thought that was the whole point of moving to this style clasp. Looked like one micro-adjustment.

I tried the new DJ41 at Heathrow T5 a couple of weeks ago, and played with its easylink extension....

And the Rolex website says it should. Maybe I'll head back to the AD and get to the bottom of this.

Tried it on at a few AD's, all had easylink?

On the jubilee?

I spy a beautiful serif on the date under that cyclops. Something I didn't notice before...

Has Rolex ever announced new model outside Baselworld?

I assume it'd be at Baselworld, but the question is: what year?

Well this is not really a new model now, it will just be in SS, and so they could be released at any time, such as the Deep Blue, TBB Noir bezel and black and pink dials on RG Ceramic Daytona, but next Basel is most likely.

The DSSD Blue.

Muzz · 16 June 2016, 10:13 AM

Tried on the exact model at my AD last week and was extremely happy with the fit and look! Could absolutely be on my list. Hopeful to get the RG brown dial when it comes in:)

watchwatcher · 16 June 2016, 10:32 AM

If there is to be one, I would say next year. Or the year after.

Sjmoore11 · 16 June 2016, 11:25 AM

That looks really sharp! A SS version would be VERY tempting!

japenney · 16 June 2016, 11:26 AM

More than likely next year at basel

Boothroyd · 16 June 2016, 12:12 PM

I wonder if a DJ41 in SS will offer a Jubilee bracelet as an option. They may limit the Jubilee to two tone models.

That would be #lamesauce

RRGHOST1 · 16 June 2016, 08:46 PM

Has anyone got a photo showing the difference between the DJII and the DJ41 ?

1William · 16 June 2016, 08:51 PM

This is a beautiful watch and the only TT that currently interests me.

Urosfan · 16 June 2016, 10:01 PM

Looks awesome

77T · 16 June 2016, 11:24 PM

My guess is that a SS DJ41 debuts after 4 quarters of SS DJ sales decline.
The SS DJ is still a corporate favorite for recognition awards. (accomplishments like sales, service tenure, etc.)

HogwldFLTR · 16 June 2016, 11:29 PM

It is interesting that they offered the TT first; I guess that means that is where the market is in DJs. I can't imagine any other reason for them to do that.

Doesn't that usually seem to be the cycle though? First they release a new model in Precious metal (if applicable), then two-tone (again if applicable), then SS?

Happened with all the ceramic refreshes (Submariner, GMT, Daytona I think, etc.)

So I'm hoping they do SS next year since I had a blue DJII on the "buy" list for this year in steel. But I definitely want Jubilee.

And since it's the "return" of the Jubilee, maybe we'll see it for the sport models? How cool would it be for them to do a SS Coke GMT w/Jubilee bracelet next Basel?
