Which do you prefer between these two and why?

1) Datejust 16200 or 16220 just like this one:

2) Date 115200 just like this one:

http://www.europeanwatch.com/12426.htm

I can't decide. I don't know which looks better in person. The minor size difference between a Date and Datejust isn't a factor with me, nor is the cost difference.

I hope posting links isn't against the rules ...

I like the 2nd one but I'd go 36mm Datejust instead of Date. Model 116200-SSO

Both have the oyster bracelet....I prefer a jubillee bracelet w/ a fluted bezel & an oyster bracelet w/ dome bezel....I vote for #2.

king1412 · 29 April 2010, 04:44 AM

Datejust looks better. Good luck.

Roselló · 29 April 2010, 07:24 AM

This one for me.

Lion · 29 April 2010, 07:28 AM

I happen to like the Datejust better but I wouldn't kick any of the two off of my wrist!!!

OYSTERMANN · 29 April 2010, 07:36 AM

Well, it's a close call. This Date looks rather good . . . .

taljamil · 29 April 2010, 07:39 AM

I definitely think the Datejust 16220 looks better. I like the machined bezel.

sea-dweller · 29 April 2010, 07:40 AM

I like the DJ better...

Tripod · 29 April 2010, 07:44 AM

My vote is for the DATE; just wish it was a tad bit bigger.

Agreed. It has a very clean, uncluttered look and I like it.

Renoir · 29 April 2010, 10:35 AM

Personally, I like the Datejust, it's a tad bigger than the Date. Either way you can't go wrong!

jtsjc1 · 29 April 2010, 10:48 AM

DJ 16220. Ok I may be a little biased because I own one but its the choice! Except my bracelet is jubilee.

ramirez1970 · 29 April 2010, 10:54 AM

I prefer datejusts over date models. However, of those two, I like the date (smooth bezel). Not a big fan of the engine turned steel bezel on the datejust.
