I liked similar designs for my first Rolex. Even tried on a DJ2 fluted bezel blue dial which was amazing on. In the end the GMT2c called my name and now it's mine.

If you can, go into your local AD. Pester them and try on as many as you can. You might be surprised that one you've always wanted might not feel right on you. For me an Explorer I always admired, I tried on and didn't like it as soon as I closed the strap.

Go try on as many as you can.

The models you've selected are quite small... have you tried on some different watches to check size/fit/style?
That said, they are all nice models and I rather like that blue dial OP

Im just trying to do a deal on the DJ, love the colour combo.

Looks good on your wrist - good luck!

Well it looks like I've just brought my 1st rolex.
The DJ is mine for just a little over £2k.
It's getting a professional polish before I get it so it will be with me end of next week.
Can't wait :)

Thanks for all your input guys.

I like AK's, but really prefer the 36mm DJ. Typically, there are so many Datejusts on the market that you will have an easier time finding lots more options with DJ's.

I'm liking the DJ also...

Love the AK. Got this for my mum for Xmas. Don't let that put you off, it's not a girls watch, well you know what I mean. Love the 34mm size.

Got from DavidSW.

The date just is fantastic.

I'd go with the DJ only because 34mm is a bit on the small side where the DJ at 36mm looks perfect for a dress watch.
