Icon20 Fínally new Rolex DJ - pic heavy

Hello everyone!

Finally I pulled the trigger and got my self a brand new black dial Datejust 116200 - random serial. I decide for this after a looooong thinking between the datejust and the Explorer 39mm.

I am very happy with my choice and think this one will be a keeper for sure. Very solid and classy watch that fits in every occasion.

Here is some photos, enjoy!

Congrats! What was the deciding factor that made you get this over the Explorer? I think the Roulette date wheel is just awesome! Enjoy!
