If you’re saying the DJ41 is a small 41mm watch, that Daytona must be closer to 34mm

DJ41 is actually 39mm and the Daytona I saw in person seemed smaller than that. But I think that picture above is all about angles, depth, and placement of the watches. I could take a picture, and depending how I place the watches, I could make the Seamaster look monstrous compared to my Submariner.

The DJ41 looks very small next to a Sub41. It’s all relative, and besides, we know Rolex measurements don’t really tell the whole story

I like the dial, I never understood why there is no purple on the dial, as the official Wimbledon colors are green and purple???

I have a 36DJ Wimbledon ..... lovely watch, no need to hate ..... there's a dial for everyone out there. I can't see them discontinuing it as it's still very popular. besides rumours never come true :)

I have the DJ41 (actually 39mm). Great looking and wearing watch. I love the slate/rhodium color.

I don't think Rolex says on it's website that it's a 'Wimbledon' dial. Just slate. But if you search on the Rolex site 'Wimbledon', it shows in the result.
