DJ36 126234 Bright blue fluted motif
 
Hello, I would like to buy the new DJ36 and I am torn which dial to chose.
What is your opinion on the bright blue fluted motif dial please? Any mod shots would be most appreciated!

The motif dial on a fluted bezel is beautiful. I prefer it over the sunburst blue. The silver dial or blue motif dials are top two IMO. It's not going to be easy getting the motif but best of luck.

Anyone out there own this and the sunburst? Wondering which gets more time. Thanks.

I have the datejust blue fluted dial with jubilee bracelet and smooth bezel. Had choice of fluted bezel on oyster or the one I purchased. I thought the fluted bezel distracted from the dial so went smooth

Hi,

I have the fluted motif DJ .The Motif dial is treated with Sunburst and Matt pattern, which is an amazing and brilliant design . It's very playful when contact with lights. This picture is taken under dull weather. I have seen Sunburst ,which is nice too. However I am not going to say which is better, since I don't own a Sunburst DJ. Hope you get your preferred piece soon. [emoji4] https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...2b42cbeae9.jpg

These really need to be available in 41mm, so then it still can’t be bought for lack of availability but at least you can line up in cue.

Mags01 9 January 2022 10:03 PM

Thank you everyone. I went to my AD and was told ordering the fluted bezel is next to impossible, unless I order it with the diamond bezel. I have ordered a white Roman dial with fluted bezel and jubilee instead, and my SA wrote a request for the blue fluted as my first choice. What do you think about the white dial?

I love it. It’s beautiful.

I really love this dial configuration - not a fan of the new palm but I think this is dynamic, bright, and classy rolled into one.

Bxtek 9 January 2022 11:54 PM

I really love this dial when it came out! Especially on Jubilee! I have yet to see one in person as it seems to be fairly rare. I was hoping that my local AD would even have an exhibition model, but no such luck. The AD said that they have only seen one come through their store so far.

My AD said she hasn't seen the fluted nor the palm design yet since they've been released. Both very difficult to get. I'm on the waitlist for the fluted, fingers crossed.

I'm not so excited about the Palm dial, but I would love to see a green one in person. My AD had one of the silver Palm dials in a TT Everose Gold, exhibition piece. Cool to see in person, but definitely doesn't strike me. In that reference they had, it just looks a little too "busy" for me.

Best of luck on landing a fluted! I'm mainly on the hunt for a GMT Pepsi, but at every AD visit, I also ask for a blue fluted dial with fluted bezel on Jubilee. If one of those were available, I'm definitely snapping it up!

Thank you, one can hope! I am not interested in the Palm dial either, it's just not for me as I prefer more classic/timeless designs. For now my SA ordered me the white Roman dial just in case she cannot get me the fluted dial at all.

Lafaiete 10 January 2022 07:46 AM

That is really nice.

I thought the fluted dial and fluted bezel might look too busy. But it looks really nice. I prefer this to the sunburst.

This dial really looks stunning and different to the normal blue dial. I hope my AD will be able to get one for me :)

toneafficianado 10 January 2022 08:03 AM

What a dial!
Hope it becomes available in 41.

Literally just purchased this watch 4 hours ago from an AD on my first visit with them. Not impossible at all!!! Giving it to my wife tm, hopefully she loves it. If not, will be keeping it for myself - 36 has a elegant fit! https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...a7f24d81c9.jpg

Drop into some stores and inquire! Never know what people have in the safe. This AD said I’ve got a dj in the back with that weird dial, pulled this out and I was like woah. Alright haha

I have placed an order with my AD and paid a deposit, so I guess I just have to be patient now. What do you think about the white dial with roman numerals? She said that apart from diamond dials, the white one is the only one she can place an order for right now.

Im not a fan of Roman dials, but I am a huggge fan of all white dials. I think the Roman numerals muddy up a dial that is otherwise super clean. My explorer II is my daily driver and the white is so clean and easy to match with whatever.

Thank you for your insight! I am still hoping I will receive the blue fluted dial, but quite like the crisp white dial too, as it goes with everything really. I do have a 2020 OP34 with a blue explorer face, so it would become redundant if I get another blue dial. Decisions decisions..

Not a fan of the 41?

I have tried on a DJ41 at the store, it’s too big and overwhelming for my wrist.
