I personally would get the DJ ahead of the others, but like many have mentioned, you should go try them on at a dealer.. they're all readily available so it shouldn't be a problem to hit them all in one go.. good luck!

Thankfully you're deciding between three models that should be readily available at an AD. You should go and try on all three to see which one connects to you the most. We all have different preferences here -- if it was me and I was picking a first that I intended to keep permanently in my collection I'd go with the DJ. I'd consider the fluted bezel and jubilee bracelet configuration if you're open to that style and slightly higher price point.

Out of the three you mentioned - vote for the Datejust.

Go and try them on. More than a few times. And discover which one is wooing you!

Problem solved

Datejust 36mm... on a jubilee... its a classic and can be worn under cuffs easily, or for just about any occasion be it casual or dressy.

Another vote for the Datejust 41.

However, I'd like to also have confidence that if I needed to sell it anytime, that it would hold its value

I am not a huge fan of the Submariners to be honest, but open to your suggestions and thoughts on this topic

Many Thanks

Air-King 100%

One of my favorite Rolexes. I like mine quite a bit.
