Yes, that's the crown clasp model like the one on the day/date model. I just seen a DateJust with that bracelet just recently.

My AD said it's recent, so I would say no older than 2006.

All new DateJust models are coming with either that bracelet or the Oyster band, which means yes, they ALL have the hidden clasp now. From what I understand, the band is not backwards-compatible - they won't fit the older watches, which is a pity, because I'd really like to have that band for my DJ... Another thing - my AD told me that all the links are solid now, so maybe a bit less prone to stretching... Another development seems to be that Rolex has phased out the Engine-Turned bezel, so now the new ones come with either smooth or fluted bezels. Not sure if the Domed bezel is available on the DJ. All this must be part of a 'face-lift' for the DJ as the case design has changed a bit too. I'm not sure if the movement is different, though. As far as I know, it's still the 3135. Hope this helps...

Guys, guys...

The newer ALL SOLID LINKS bracelets came in with the newer DJ cases and the newer TOGs....I think it was in late 2004.
