Incoming - DJ41

Well I went into my AD to look at watches for my wife and he offered me this and I couldn’t pass it up. All my other watches are divers so glad to add this one! Had to put in a request for the wife - DJ31 with fluted/jubilee and blue dial. Will post that one when it comes in.

Such a nice change from the usual SS sport watches. This one looks quite sporty actually! Any other photos of the dial in various light/outdoors?

Congratulations. I have my eye on that exact watch.

I have not seen one in person, but have chosen yours over the Bright Blue dial (in my request to my AD) … what is your opinion of this dial, in person ?

I own this on jubilee and it’s MARVELOUS. Looks so cool from all different angles. It is distinctly fainter looking blue as apposed to the more dark navy bright blue version. It comes down to taste on what shade of blue darker vs lighter do you prefer

Thank you.

I love the Roman Numerals on the Azzurro Dial vs. the Batons on the Bright Blue.
