what's difference between dj 16220 and 16234
anybody know if there's a difference. I'm looking to purchase one of these. But there's a price difference, they look really similar. Maybe it's the mechanical that's difference?

the 16220 has a stainless steel engine turned bezel. the 16234 is a white gold fluted bezel. sometimes they could look similar, but overall the wg one has more shine & brings a bit more on resale. also, the 16220 is now discontinued. the 16234 has a newer version, the 116234 with the newer style case. other than the bezel, they are identical. hope this helps.

Viper has provided excellent and correct information. Remember the WG bezel will cost more as compared with the smooth SS bezel. Also, the WG bezel DJ appears slightly bigger because of the fluted WG bezel.....although both watches are still the same 36 mm in diameter.
