I have posted these shots of my new watch in quite a few threads since I got it this past Tuesday. I just realized it is not only a Turn-O-Graph, but also a DATEJUST!

@George

It's a 16014 from early the 80s.

Here's another shot.

My recently acquired DJ (haven't had time to take off the plastic or even have it sized, yet). With the trend towards bigger and bigger watches, I was worried that it would seem too small. However, I think the 36 mm case is perfect for my 7" wrist.

I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce myself and DATEJUST as we've been lurking around for some time, and made few post before. You are all a great bunch of guys (and girls!) and it's a pleasure to take a few minutes a day to see what's going on here.

DATEJUST has been with me for 2 years now, and enjoy it everyday as it's my only watch (aside from a Swatch that my wife wears, and a Swiss Army that's somewhere in a drawer).

Once my oldest daughter saw a photo of Lindsey Vonn wearing the same watch, she borrowed it and wears it every day.

Those are all great photos of one of my favorite Rolex designs guys!!

I have never considered owning one (8" wrist made it look too small) until the 41mm DJ II came out and then the one I really wanted had what I consider a rather undesirable design flaw. That unsightly white stick at the 9. It would be in my winder if it had a beautiful anniversary green IX instead.

Perhaps Rolex will reconsider or I will soften up, but neither have happened yet.
