Agree. I got a silver dial DJ a few months ago. It’s a beautiful look.

Well done -- the 36 mm DJ is a classic, and that configuration is handsome. It will pair nicely with your eventual Sub. I'd even go so far as to say DJ + Sub = call it a day. Wear in good health

Nice! Congrats to you as well. I see your location listed as BH...I'm wondering if we got them from the same AD since that's the area I acquired this one.

That was actually my thought. Was planning on going No Date Sub since I've got the cyclops on this one and I love the clean look of the No Date. But I feel like once I get the Sub I'll want more.

Wow it almost looks like a creamy white in this photo. That’s why I love this dial. It changes shades in every lighting situation.

Congrats.. Lately been looking at the new Datejust 36 and liking what I see. I got the DJ41 but feel that the 36 deserves a look.
