Thank you all for your kind comments on my DJ! I love it, and the ivory white dial just seems so rare and is set off beautifully by the gold roman numerals.

I think that the DateJust is the absolute quintessential model of Rolex, easily recognisable from a mile away and is my favorite model.

Great job RSC!

Thanks,

R.J.B

Congrats, it looks amazing!
To which RSC did you send this baby? I need to send mine for calibrating (running about +13 seconds per day) and I heard different feedback. So far it seems Dallas or Beverly Hills are the best rated ones.

As I live in the UK, mine was taken to the RSC in London.

The watch was in very good condition before it was sent to them although I did request that they fitted a brand new clasp due to a few scratches on the old one.

The watch was returned to me looking absolutely as brand new once again and keeping excellent time. I am very pleased with the work they did!

I can't really comment on the RSC's you mention but if you recieve a job as good as the guys in London did for me, I'm sure you will be Very pleased!

Good luck,

R.J.B

By the way, is that a cream or MOP dial?

It doesn't look white in the photos.

Just luscious!



And if I may inquire: Give us more information on this one!

The dial is not MOP, it is an off white, ivory colouring and as I havent really seen another quite like it (on a DJ anyway) i am assuming that there weren't too many of this colour made.

It gives a really rich and classy look to the watch in my opinion (particularly when veiwed in person, as it is difficult to get a photograph to actually do it justice) and really compliments the 18ct gold of the watch without blending totally into it, such as a champaign dial tends to do. A nice twist to a white dial i think

Thank you for your interest,

R.J.B
