I have about a dozen watches in my rotation at any time, and I sell some and add more but it's usually around a dozen. Of those, the 36mm TT DJ with Champagne stick dial (see avatar) is always my 'go-to' watch for any sort of non-casual day, and surprisingly days of informality too since it 'goes up or down with any sort of style.'

So in all of 2013, with a changing collection of roughly 12 watches, the 36mm TT DJ still garnered probably 60% of my wrist time.

That says it all..............

Thanks for all the answers so far. The hardest part is deciding what DJ combo to go far, and when to actually pull the trigger. And every once in a while, this little devil in my ear starts whispering about day dates and hulks and root beers, and I get thrown off track.

The nice wrist shots certainly help keep me focused, though. There's no AD in my town, so I can't just pop in to ogle to goods.

Would start with one of the TRF trusted sellers to get the best deal. I'll venture that they can beat any AD hands down!!
As to dials, etc.....any color with Romans looks elegant. Good luck.

I wear mine almost every other day…and on the days I don't wear it, either Im working and won't wear any Rolex to work….and then I put on the Sub for a change. I try to give them equal love. The DJ goes better with everything if I had to choose one to be the most versatile. ;-)

I wear mine about 2-3 days per month. Speedy, GMT, Daytona, TT OQ - in that order. Breitling is my workout chronometer and all-around beater.

Tt tog

I wear my TT Turn-o-graph on all work days that need a dress shirt and tie.
Then it's a sub for the casual days
Cheers and definitely check with some of the sellers here and if you have something specific in mind they can probably source it for you.

I wear mine usually once or twice a week. I find it nice to wear as it is so comfortable, especially after wearing my breitlings for a couple days.

OOOOps….I should have added…I do not have a TT DJ..just simple SS….which is perfectly fine for me. That means I can spend money on other gems/diamonds and put them on various parts of my body. LOL Watches with gold or diamonds always command premium cost. Only you can decide if that premium cost is worth it…. ;-)

Indeed it does. I just picked this up and it will be my daily wearer.

When you are meeting with Baby Boomer heavy upper management,
The DJ fits the bill.
