Maybe Paul should be known as "Buck Naked - Porn Star"
I hear the camera adds a few inches.

I really do love them, they are great watches.

The sports Rolexes are nice too, but having each, it is a great way to mix things up.
Mine, too, Mark. The first 2 Rollies I bought were TT DJs, one on a black leather strap (original Rolex) and one on a Jubilee bracelet. I still love them and wear them occasionally, particularly with suits.

Dick Long is the founder of DUI, a drysuit manufacturer for the diving industry.

As for the DJ, I would like it better if it was a little bigger, say 39mm to 40mm. It's too dainty for me.

Plus, I see FAR too many in my profession. (Right Ed?)

Believe it or not, Dave, I see very few in DC. One of my partners has a SS DJ and another one (a woman) has an Oyster Perpetual, but no one else in my office is into watches. Which is a bit surprising since everyone here is an engineer or scientist as well as a lawyer.

I'm going to disagree counselor. Tons of DJ's in DC. I would say the tt or ss datejust is the most common Rolex followed by subdates in the ss or tt variety.

I have seen exactly one submariner and two sea-dwellers on somebody elses wrist in the DC area.

I have to agree. DJs are ubiquitous in the legal profession. I knows a lot of lawyers who went straight for the TT DJ because they wanted "a Rolex," including one guy who paid for his with money he made representing a mobster. They're everywhere.

Does that guy still have his thumbs? Does he walk with a limp?

I'm going to have to look more closely from now on.
