But I'm sure he got the watch as a free gift from Rolex so it's irrelevant.


Probably this is....

Respect your opinion but totally disagree. I think it looks terrific on him and doesn't seem too big for his wrist at all. He's no tiny guy at 6'+ and obviously an amazing athlete.

Granted. But, there’s not many watches that carry some tennis history that I’m aware of. I know this does t mean a great deal mind :p

Seems that this dial choice was not as widely sold as the others in the range - based merely by seeing others photos here

DJII is a beautiful piece. That silver dial Arabic numbers seems to have been produced in lower numbers. That dial is definitely unique.

I can't stand # 4, 5,6,.7 and 9 orientation on the dial. I like my Aquanaut dial .

This was my first Rolex and I love it. I don't know that I've seen another in the wild.

I kinda think that's the part I love the most about this watch. Unique presentation. And now they no longer make that dial making it even more special.

It's definitely unique looking in person. Iv'e seen them sell a couple times and anytime one comes available it seems to go fast.

I was on the hunt for mine for the better part of a year.. The best deal I could find on a Mint full set was w/DavidSW. Can’t say enough good things about his operation.

I miss my DJII. One of the few watches I regret letting go of.
