Hi all. WE are looking at a datejust, men's fluted bezel with jubilee bracelet.

It is available as Stainless Steel, Two tone, and Yellow Gold.

Which one you like best and why ?

Which one you would hate to buy, and why ?

please feel free to fully express yourselves, ex: if you think all gold watches belong only in Vegas, then please say so ! :)

richc1958 · 30 March 2008, 04:12 PM

It truly is your choice..it is what you like. I have a new ss sub..to get this I sold my TT sub blue face....I always wanted the SS but listened to others and bought the TT sub and was never 100% happy...maybe 95% but not like the 100% I am now....so truly get whatever you feel is the best and which one you like as they all are great watches.

Trurolexer · 30 March 2008, 04:17 PM

The most popular DJ is tt.

miscusi · 30 March 2008, 04:23 PM

Is that really true ? I thought the most popular datejust is SS...

miscusi · 30 March 2008, 06:30 PM

Come on guys, let it out, what feelings do these bring based on metal alone ?

sherwin · 30 March 2008, 06:58 PM

two tone. in my opinion the datejust just doesnt look right in YG, but a nice combo is the TT

TT for sure..

cocopeep · 30 March 2008, 09:49 PM

Either TT or SS. If it were all gold then I feel like I'd only bring it out for special occasions.

Scarface · 30 March 2008, 09:53 PM

SS but I guess it depends on the age as well

daveathall · 30 March 2008, 09:58 PM

TT has a nice weight to it and the gold IMHO seems to contrast great with the SS, Ive only just got this so any excuse to show a picture.

Dan Pierce · 30 March 2008, 10:15 PM

Always been a fan of ss, the poor man's platinum.

vukotab · 30 March 2008, 10:24 PM

The best option for DJ,for me,is TT,because SS is more apropriate for sporty tool watches and YG looks too much serious and is perfect for Day-Date.But,I think that the first DJ that I`m gonna buy will be SS.Why?Well,I like silver color and it`s less expensive than TT!

Chozn1 · 30 March 2008, 10:27 PM

TT. SS is a little bland in my book for a dress watch like the DJ, and the YG looks like a president wannabe.

timackerman · 31 March 2008, 12:18 AM

I have always been a fan of one color watches, and the SS looks better then TG to me

CL65AMG · 31 March 2008, 12:23 AM

I have both SS and TT DJs but I would say that the TT is the more versatile of the two.....Go for the TT and you won't be disappointed.

R.J.B · 31 March 2008, 01:56 AM

I like both the SS, TT and YG versions but to me the TT is a classic Rolex combination and recognisable from a mile away and so personally, I don't think you would go far wrong with the TT, but then again I suppose it's more a question of presonal taste and what suits you more than anything!

Here's a pic of mine with the Ivory & Roman dial (any excuse).

kcmo · 31 March 2008, 02:00 AM

SS for me, though I do admire TT on others!

DSJ · 1 April 2008, 01:46 AM

First, I much prefer a DJ with a Jubilee dial over Oyster, at least for a man's watch. Insofar as metal, my choices are:
TT (RG more than YG)
SS
Gold (price point of all gold DJ is so close to DD, so I would plunge for the DD at that point)

Tools · 1 April 2008, 01:51 AM

The TT DJ is the classic Rolex..

I would save the SS for a sports model.

redshirt1957 · 1 April 2008, 02:25 AM

Tt.

xkjohn · 1 April 2008, 02:34 AM

I would go with the TT.

Regards,

john

kelly56 · 1 April 2008, 04:24 AM

The DJ in my mind is a dress watch. Nothing looks better IMHO than a TT with a white face. Best wishes on your potential ourchase.

erwin · 1 April 2008, 05:06 AM

definitely tt for datejust and ss for sport watches! And dress watch to worn on left wrist and sport watch to be worn on right wrist! ( just a little input )

arielc · 1 April 2008, 09:09 AM

For Me The Tt,more Classic.

TZL · 1 April 2008, 09:14 AM

TT is the classic DJ look....then again i'm biased...I have one

There is a certain classic look for each watch: DJ = TT, DD = YG, GMT/Submariner/Daytona/Sea Dweller = SS

kelly56 · 1 April 2008, 09:14 AM

I like the TT look especially with the white face.

Bama · 1 April 2008, 12:52 PM

I bought the SS DateJust because that's what I could afford at the moment. I actually think it looks great on the Jubilee bracelet. Just look at that great picture of Dan's. However, the TT DateJust is the first Rolex I fell in love with as a kid and I hope to add one of those to the collection one day. It's all a matter of choice and you really can't go wrong

kiat · 1 April 2008, 02:50 PM

It's depend on what you like?
I like the look of SS >YG>TT (only me)

S/SOnly · 1 April 2008, 02:56 PM

Name says it all... S/S!

miscusi · 13 January 2009, 07:59 AM
