Do you like the watch? if you enjoy it I would just keep it lol, im probably in the minority but i prefer the DJII to the DJ41

GFONG · 22 December 2016, 12:32 AM

Awesome! Congrats!

mtgjr · 22 December 2016, 02:03 AM

That's definitely the DJII. I personally prefer the 36mm DJ, but of the two larger references I definitely prefer the new DJ 41.

Danny83 · 22 December 2016, 02:03 AM

Stunning

KeithP · 22 December 2016, 02:52 AM

Good luck! Keep us posted with how it turns out.

I've posted a pic of my 41 for you to see the difference in the markers.

mjclark32 · 22 December 2016, 07:19 AM

Nice piece, congrats!

AJM914 · 22 December 2016, 07:26 AM

Congrats looks great!

Castiel · 22 December 2016, 08:01 AM

It's the chocolate dial DJ again. I love this watch !!!!!

RichM · 22 December 2016, 08:13 AM

What a beauty! Congrats

sknicks · 22 December 2016, 08:35 AM

I arrived at my AD 2 minutes after they opened, they were very nice and were surprised that my DJII was not the 41, they only had a 41 with a jubilee bracelet. when we put them side by side it was easy to see the it was not the 41. The 41, although the same diameter, appeared smaller due to a slimming down of the case. the case on the II is not only thicker it is also longer and wider.
so it still remained that this novice asked for a 41 and was sold a II. however after sizing them both up I decided to keep the II. I really still feel somewhat jilted, but a 500.00 gift card along with the promise to be the first one they call when they receive the new SS Daytona (they anticipate spring timeframe), and I really do like the look of the bigger case, so basically in my mind I am sacrificing the new calibre 3235 Movement for "appearance" of the II.

Castiel · 22 December 2016, 08:46 AM

Hope you will get the call for the Daytona C in Spring 2017 as promised. The watch you decided to keep looks great, regardless.

drfaulkner · 22 December 2016, 08:51 AM

I am wearing that same model/color DJII today. Love it!! Congratulations!!

OK, and the new Daytona has a black ceramic bezel just so you know.

I'm with you, I like the look of the DJ II dial / bezel better.

I like the DJ II for the same reason you do, I think you will be very happy with it, and you got a huge bonus out of it. You got the watch you ended up liking better, $500 GC, AND you got bumped to the front of the Daytona list lol. I call that a win / win / win

Congrats man! gorgeous watch!

Shamorai · 22 December 2016, 02:32 PM

I also prefer the looks of the DJ2 over the DJ41. I got mine about two months ago and loving it!!

Allanmodel · 22 December 2016, 02:57 PM

That is exactly what I ended up doing. I like the "larger" look of the II, could have waited until middle of January if I wanted the 41... the wait, the look, and of course I would have to hand the II back... I'm now a very proud owner of a TTDJII!
