DJII.

Blue stick dial w/ smooth bezel makes me drool. Also love the fluted bezel, but for me, the smooth one beats it out by a slim margin.

I am the original poster. Blue index, fluted bezel now in lead. Black and white a neck behind. Will be in NYC this weekend and hope to drop by an AD for a face off!

I've seen the blue with Romans and my two complaints are that I find the blue too light for my taste and no lume. However, that watch seems wildly popular. I will look at it in person again.

I once made fun of the size of Panerais. A few years later, I owned one.

Just got the Milgauss Z and could not be happier. Perfect size, really interesting and unique watch.

No, the blue sticks is far more popular here, the azure is a little on the light side as you say.

While i like the Milgauss quite a bit and think its a real fun piece, the second "flash" hand always feels bit too much "pronounced" movement for me and it wears relatively high on the wrist. So i would go DJ II, personally 36mm, smooth bezel, but hey, close enough...

Enabler!

I am tossing a few options around, and in one of the lineups I'm considering, this one is in there!

I wonder why it says Datejust on the dial and not Datejust II?

The Milgauss is certainly more unique and would get my vote...
