I haven't even got over the glow of the explorer I got recently (and am currently wearing) when I passed a AD in London to grab a Bvlgari watch for my wife and ended up taking this home as well. It's a V serial Datejust with WG bezel, silver dial and diamond markers.

I know Diamonds are a bit over the top for men but I wanted something a little more flashy. I was originally looking for a Sub because it has more presence and is more recognisable than the explorer but could not find any black ones and When I saw this, I just had to get it, even though it was a hell of a lot more.

It looks amazing under a suit!

Absolute beauty......same Jubilee dial with 10 diamonds as my wife's recent TT DJ acqusition. Love that dial.

Congrats - JJ

Nice watch! Looks great!

My mother has an almost identical one...except hers is two-tone. It looks very nice.

NavitimerNut · 8 January 2010, 09:43 AM

Great DJ! Hoe about a wrist shot with a suit on?

Thanks! I just hope it is enough to keep the Sub bug at bay...

crazycarlitos · 8 January 2010, 10:50 AM

congrats !

i know how it can be.. its sooooo addicting..

this is my second one (now on third).. it also has diamond markers !

sea-dweller · 8 January 2010, 10:51 AM

Nice watch, this is an addicting hobby, for sure !

Mockingbird · 8 January 2010, 01:00 PM

I love the diamond markers, it really completes the watch. Great choice!

The one qualm I have with it is the dial. (which I'm sure you love) I just don't like a lot of dials. That's just me though, enjoy the watch!

scl6118 · 8 January 2010, 01:15 PM

Beautiful, congrats!

I really like it! It is 3D/textured so it looks a lot better than my sorry excuse for a picture shows. I'm also under the impression that if I get any crap under the glass, it will hide it well (unlike my exp1).

I saw the same dial but in Black and really liked it but the silver one seems more detailed to my eyes, I also like the plain Gloss Black version they have at my local AD but not enough to just snap it up while passing through.

Alan111 · 9 January 2010, 03:26 AM

Nice watch! I bought the same one for my wife in Midsize and oyster bracelet....

PeteNYC13 · 9 January 2010, 03:42 AM

I love that dial, I always thought it was called the Graffiti dial...can it go by Juilee or Graffiti or, have I been calling it the wrong name and my AD was too polite to correct me?

Thanks,
-Pete

2th Dr · 9 January 2010, 03:45 AM

Man, you got the bug alright! Congrats! Great choice!
I have the exact same watch, except with a black jubilee/diamond dial.
