This Datejust is going to be worn...
Hello all, happy owner of a new DJ41, bought one month ago at an Ad in Vancouver, Canada. Have been on the list for an Explorer for 2 1/2 years and got tired of waiting. With my 50th birthday arriving and an email from the Ad saying they wouldn't be able to get me an Explorer, I went with the blue DJ. Am growing more fond of this beauty every day, only complaint so far is it is consistently losing 3.5 seconds a day but hopefully it won't slow anymore than that. I bought it knowing it would be my daily wearer but with the smooth bezel and pcl, it's not going to look new for long!

Congrats! My DJ 41 was running slow also. I had it regulated and has been almost bang on ever since.

Great looking watch! Looks very similar to an Explorer, which is cool. Wear it every day, and appreciate every scratch it earns

Congrats for not babying it. We look forward to some worn in photos in the future. I have the DJ41 also and it has been losing time since I got it. It’s an inherent issue with the new movement. I set it ahead a few minutes and it’s good for a few weeks. The blue dial is great. Enjoy!

Congrats to you! I actually prefer it and also have the smooth on oyster. I've been wearing mine regularly in rotation for two years since new and it's still looking fresh. Enjoy!!...

Rolex built a watch for a man to wear.

Congrats! 2.5yr wait is surprising for an Explorer so can see why you went for this. Lovely piece. For what it’s worth my brand new Explorer is around 6 seconds a day slow so far. Was a tad annoying at first but I’m not going to bother opening it up as I won’t be wearing it every day anyway. Will give it 6 months or so and see where it’s at then.

Great watch! That combo is very beautiful.
I had a 126333 TT before but I sold it already. Actually, that new 3235 movement has a little issue (forgot exactly which) that's why yours is doing 3.5+/-. The COSC guarantees only 2+/- so that's a little off. You could take it back for warranty and the AD should be able to fix it at no cost.

Great combo! I got rid of my Explorer (mk 2) in favor for a blue DJ and I have zero regrets.

Congratulations on a great watch, my DJ 41 is my most accurate watch by a long way, once wound and worn it sits around 1 second out, doesn't seem to lose or gain time which is astonishing, I expected some adjustment but whilst I am wearing it I don't have to adjust it all.
As yours is a bit out I would suggest that you have it checked, it should be better than -3.5. Enjoy the new watch, the DJ is awesome.
