New Arrival - datejust 36 - 126234 (Wimbledon)

Hi everyone, I’m excited to share my newest addition. I feel very fortunate to have been allocated this watch from my AD. I was going between the 41 and 36 endlessly on my interest list and so happy I landed on the 36mm size. Not long ago I couldn’t see myself with a datejust as it felt too mature for me. Looks like I’ve grown up.

It’s a great watch… just got the 41 myself and do enjoy it. I will say it’s not very legible in the dark but oh well.

Good size by the looks of it and nicer than 2 tone.

Thanks for the warm wishes on the watch. It’s a fantastic piece, even though it may look more dressy I do feel it could pair well for all occasions. I’m glad to be back to a date window after wearing my airking for a while.

I was very fortunate to land the exact config I asked for. I was quite shocked to have even got the call that I had to ring back to double check what the configuration was! I’ve always seen the Datejust to be jubilee and fluted, but appreciate all the other combinations.

Yes agree with the difficulty in reading time, though I need to remove my glass to read any of my watches so it’s more my eyes than anything else!

Loving the sizing. Not sure I’m ready for a two tone or full PM piece just yet.
