TWO datejusts make it RIGHT

Two of my brothers and a friend came up to visit me, both brothers were wearing their DJs but only one came back to my place and I showed him the lazer etching, he was truly amazed.

Not the best, but it does the job...You can see his has the WG bezel. That was the first thing I noticed when I saw him tonight. BIG, BIG difference in the bling factor





Are the romans on his DJ, WG also? Or just SS?

I wish I could of gotten all three in the picture, but I think its a little weird to ask your brother to take a picture of his watch

Anyway, Enjoy!!

Mike

Where is the laser etching and which watches is it on?

Can you see with the naked eye?

Thanks

The lazer etching is on both watches @ the 6' oclock mark. It is VERRRRRRRRY hard to see with the naked eye, having good eye sight I can catch it if I REALLY try.

It is much easier to see with a Loupe magnifying glass of 10x.

- And they started this late 2003 I believe.

the wg bezel catches more light as all fluted surfaces are smooth and polished...

You can tell he is smarter than me, I wouldn't be able to tell the time wit them roman things


Are the Romans WG since the bezel is WG?

I was there in Las Vegas when we got his watch, but Its been so long since i've seen him wearing it...Its just pure beauty

^ Yeah, They are graduation presents from our father after graduating College. We (4) have Stainless Steel DJs, with different dials/bezels/etc.. and one has a Tudor (Not sure of the model)

My dad has the Prezzy DD.

Nice DJ's in both arabic and roman. I always preferred the roman dial but now I'm not sure as that arabic dial looks great. You are very lucky guys.

Why did your brother got a WG bezel and you got the engine turned?

Just kidding, nice pair.

If they put LUMI on Romans, I would go there. But I need to see the watch at night. I love those Romans though.
