Difference Between Datejust and Date

Could someone tell me what the difference is between a Datejust 116200 and a Date 115200 other than I see the Date is 34mm and the Datejust is 36mm.

That about covers it..

34mm has been the standard for decades in a mans watch.. and the larger 36mm DJ was a big watch with sports models considered monsters..

Things have changed a bit and the trend is for the bigger watches now, but everybody can't pull off the look of a big watch..

Thanks for the replies, so basically the difference is cosmetic and has nothing to do with the movements.
