I'd have to agree. The DJ fits my criteria for the perfect watch.

-no rotating bezel (can be damaged, lost, fade, expensive to repair (ceramic))
-comfortable (sorry 42mm lovers)
-waterproof
-metal bracelet
-automatic
-Rolex

Tick all those boxes and you'll either wind up with an Explorer or DJ. If you're really intrepid, an AK, OD, or OP.

OP that is a classic - is it the silver dial?

I think that is the one I would like next, rather than the champagne dial.

Do you find it easy to read the time on this dial?

I agree. Except the fluted was a little to blingy so I bought the domed brand new...and had my watch guy swap them. Perfect for me.
