36mm Goodness: Finally trying on this watch!

As some of you know, I have been looking for a 36mm piece for an everyday watch. I've tried on Datejusts, Explorers, and now Oyster Perpetuals.

Without taking anything away anything from the DJ or the Explorer, I think I've found the watch that scratches the itch!

I like the no-cyclops dial, brushed Oyster bracelet, and symmetrical batons around the dial.

I had visited 3 ADs prior to finding this one. I tried on the grape dial at the first AD, but was really only interested in the steel dial. I liked it in photos, but I REALLY liked it in person.


I didn't buy it here. I'm going to save my $$ and buy from a trusted seller here on TRF.

((Sorry for the crappy photo))

Very classic but I think it looks small on you....maybe I'm just used to seeing 40mm plus.

I recently had a hankering to get back into a 36 mm piece, so I made a trade with another member for this. Very happy I did.
