Datejust is nice to have the Date, but the brushed bracelet on the OP makes it less dressy so I'll go with that as my pick.

Depends what dial color you have in your sports models. If you have lots of black, I‘d suggest the white OP. If you have Polar EX2 or white Daytona, pick the DJ.

I have the datejust and love it, but it has a lot more wrist presence due to the PCL bracelet, cyclops and 41mm diameter.

I think the white OP ist the ultimate use-everywhere-everytime watch. It‘s so beautiful because it‘s so simple.

I‘d take the white OP.

So if OP is taking a break from SS as a daily, where is your PM alternative?

If you need the date, DJ.
If you want to save some money, OP.

Get the DJ ... But ... get White Dial , maybe the Jubilee option - less polish & more comfortable -- Yes I have been giving this some thought ..lol

Why have a "daily?" Since you already have these 2 watches - simply rotate.

No need to play favorites.

I vote DJ,
You can dress up or dress down and the DJ is still dope. The OP however is more classy and works best for business look, in my eyes.
