Love my DJ. I sometimes swap out the bracelet for a croc strap and it's a totally different watch. Someone on TRF, erul (?) makes end pieces that fit with the croc strap so it fits in seamlessly with the case, no gap.

I"like" mine,it is the same as the black dial 6305 posted,but dial is white.GO VINTAGE,no knockoffs when you own a vintage Rolex!That is why I prefer the older Rolex watches.

I have "Date", and I think I will soon replace it with DJ. I like the 36 mm more than 34 mm case!

I think I rushed in making decision to go with date. It just looks small on my wrist!

So many beautiful timepieces in this thread.
Sounds braggish, but listing for perspective of how I feel about my DJ. Others have so much more and better. Just perspective; I've a handful of watches including Poor Man Breitling Colt GMT, GMT II TT, Omega Speedmaster Pro, Baume Mercier....but having to do a Sophie's Choice...here it is:

LOVE my 1985 16013 Acrylic



I just look at it at as a piece of beauty and then remember it also keeps time. -2 sec day. Bugs me on the "-" side, but heck, I can't do sheet like I did 26 yrs ago myself (54 now).

Two items on my nightstand that exit, stage left, in a bug out w/ me. My DJ & 1940s Eagle Scout ring.

Whirled Peas...
Goose.
