Interested in any serious comments but, jokes are OK too. PM me for details regarding this NIB "el presidente" 41mm...see photo below. cheers
Nice collection!

Cheers Brian. I actually took that outside but with flash to capture the sunburst dial better.

This is actually my fav DD color combo ever. I wish the new 40mm DD had such a gorgeous dial but I am not a fan of what theyve done with the roman numerals.

Glad to see it back on your wrist, my friend.

Been wearing my TT DJ this past week to see if there is any love left, but sadly to say, almost everytime I look at it, I instantly think about my DD.

I still like mine but often wrestle with an urge to want to sell and get a dd2 or the dd40 when it is out.

Cons:
It feels small on my wrist
Will cost thousands extra to get dd2 or 40mm
Sometimes I feel with all the faux rose gold women's watch I feel if be better off with yellow gold.

Pros:
Very rare beautiful cut meteorite
I bought this used at a fantastic price with box papers
The rose color is "different" not quite as dark or coppertone as later eve rose
This can fly under the radar

Yours looks amazing. However, if it does not work for you anymore, I would suggest waiting for the DD 40 to be released before making any decisions.

Love rose gold, especially the way Rolex does it.
