I notice the different on this new version is :
1) Solid bracelet.
2) Embossment of Rolex Logo, Wording and Serial Number inside the watch right.
3) President Bracelet Lock, mean with a Crown logo.
4) The case shapre is change slightly as according to Rolex Website.
Hope someone can share more on this.

The original reason for my question above was that Rolex has introduced a new version of their Datejust and the first ones they issued are the two tone models. The specific changes they made, as I understand them, are that they:
1. Increased comfort (the wearing experience) by curving the lugs so that the bracelet and case fit the wrist better.
2. The dials have been redesigned for increased readability with high contrast dials and slightly larger markers (stick, roman, arabic).
3. The bracelet has been changed from the flip lock type to a hidden clasp and made a little thicker.
4. Case has been remodeled.
You can read about it on Rolex's website, under "Collections", click "New Datejust Rolesor" and it will summarize the changes for you there. A few months ago I went and tried on the new two tone models and was impressed, but the dealer told me the stainless steel version was going to come out later. I was primarily asking to find out if the SS version was in stores yet. Members here responded that yes, they are out in stores now. Hope that clarifies what we are talking about.
