Well, I pulled the trigger on the FF (previously owned) from a highly regarded TRF member. I might miss the DJ but I have plenty of other watches to wear in its absence (SMPO GMT in sedna gold, Grand Seiko GMT, Breitling Premier, Weil Freelancer and a Marathon SAR USMC edition. I'll be ok. I'll pick up another Rolex if/when the market isn't so crazy. Thanks for all of the well intended suggestions.
