Thanks buddy! I was under the same impression that this was a unicorn watch in blue. Maybe to others it’s not a hard watch to get but for me it was one that I never expected I would be able to buy from my AD. I had just made a post about which one I should buy from the grey market the black or blue. Crazy how things work out sometimes.

That’s right! I forgot you were contemplating a trade. Yeah man, multiple SAs have told me that Sky D just aren’t produced as much so it sounds like you got the highest demand color of one of the lower production references. And at retail! You’re on a roll my friend!

So if that’s what you’re getting, you need to play Vegas as soon it opens up again. Unless of course, you’re a huge whale at your AD.

You were correct my friend! Ticket booked! lol

My AD just called me with the most amazing news!

Thank you all. It’s huge on wrist. Great wrist presence. More top heavy than I thought. I have a SD43 and this feels more top heavy. Thank goodness I have a wrist that can handle it. It makes the DJ41 look like a 36mm.

For a second there I thought you got teabagged in the face!
Great looking watch, blue face is amazing! Looks a little tight on your wrist!
Have fun and enjoy it!!

I really like the black too. I think when they came out it was my favorite color. With my collection of heavy sports models I have a ton of black models. But I get the love for the blue. It’s honestly the best dial. It goes electric blue to black. It’s always nice to look at. The black goes almost to a Greyish brown.


I just picked up a DJ41 in black so that also made me want the blue. You can’t go wrong with any color to be honest.
