New watches?
According to my jeweler, "all new" and "redesigned" datejust watches are coming out soon (though they don't know when) and you can't specially order any of the old ones because they're all discontinued.
Can someone please provide information/links/articles about these new watches so I might read about them? Thanks. |

The bracelet has been redesigned with the comfort clasp, and the links are now all solid - good news for those who like the jubilee bracelet. |

Earl, I don't know how recently you've been to the local dealers, but the 234s (SS with WG bezel) are showing up in greater numbers now. You still can't find every bracelet/dial combination yet, but the stock is increasing. I think they look great. :-)
I can vouch for the comfort of the new bracelets. My TT DJ with the new Jubilee feels like no other Rolex I own. It feels nice and smooth all the way around. I think the extra weight in the bracelet makes it feel great too. The movements are the same as always. No change there. |

Do you think that the new jubilee bracelet design will prevent the stretching of the center links (as seen on the older model)?

The new DJ cases have been "beefed" up around the lugs to give the appearance of a larger case. In reality, they are still on the pathetic 36 mm!! JJ

Hey, thanks for your help so far guys. Does anyone have any pics of what this new "domed" or raised bezel looks like? My dealer also informed me about this new feature too, but I had no idea what she was talking about.
