Red date question

Hi guys

an online seller in the UK has a Datejust 36mm blue dial and it appears to have red date numbers

Any ideas my DJ II has black numbers for the date.

cheers

Different options is all, and it is something which is not availible with the DJII. That is at least not as of yet.

Did not know that, I was thinking it was an after market adjustment or a non standard model

The red date was an option with certain watches, I'm not certain which to be honest. However I do know it is not an option with the DJII.
