Incoming??? Should I ???

A rather unusual and pretty little thing in my eyes have been listed for sale at my local grey dealer at a great price. What are your thoughts? I am really tempted.

Nice one Andy but I have a few 36mm watches and prefer the 40/41's.

I'm not a big tuxedo dial fan, but, if you like it, it's a nice watch.

If the 36 suits you for some occasions and the price is right - then go for it.
Unique dial..

The simplicity and cleanness of the dial looks great! For myself, a 40mm'ish is perfect for a sports model, but a 36mm is perfect for a dress casual look on me.

I like it. It kind of reminds me of the old Omega pie pan dials.

I love my 36 DD. The bigger ones takes away the classic look that I'm after. But I am 55yoa.

I find the 36mm a little small, but it is a sweet dial. Having the roulette date wheel would be perfect.

Sharp looking watch - I think the newer 36mm DJs wear larger than the previous models. I also think the DJ II is too large and loses much of its heritage. It's too bad Rolex didn't release a ~38mm version.
