I think the smooth bezel works better with this modern looking dial in this case.

I like both, but I'd give the edge to the smooth bezel in this case

Not for me, but fluted. If you're doing DJ, just go all the way.

I don't like fluked bezel in general. However, the flukes bezel definitely looks better given the dial combination in your photos...

Fluted will catch the light more and really sparkle...

Fluted looks more dressy and smooth looks more sporty. I like the dressier look for the DJ.

DJ's signature is the fluted bezel. Besides it looks better too. Smooth looks a bit ... baldy
 especially on the big version IMHO.

I ordered my DJ41 with a fluted. No offense to anyone that likes the smooth, it's a very nice looking watch,but IMHO, the smooth just looks kind of.... incomplete.

I really like both versions, but you can't beat a fluted bezel under good light. However, if you want something a bit more under the radar, then go for the smooth.

 On the DJ 41 I would probably go fluted, but on the DJ II the bezel almost looks like a Reese's peanut butter cup, it's too big. (IMO of course) |

For a DJ go fluted. It gives that right amount of flare that defines this particular model.
