Which is your feeling about the crown size ? I saw from your pics that it seems very well balanced and fits perfectly the watch case: is this also your opinion ?

Thanks for your reply !

Ciao

Engi

The watch is freeking perfect in size and proprtion IMO. A watch for the times...

The one below will 100% be the winner for me!

Yeah. One of the saleswomen came by and was saying how it's there because in case you're in the dark you can get a reference to get oriented with the face. The lume is only present on the hands and that single baton. Then I re-iterated by stating that most watches would have a single baton at 12 o'clock for that purpose and she repied with "not all watches are made like Rolexes" LOL

Maybe the green trim has lume?

I'm going to be in the minority here....sorry...I just don't like them......each to their own as they say....maybe in the flesh they'll look better but I like the fact that the older DJ's were significantly smaller than all the sports line (excepting the Explorer I of course)

Flame me at will....anyone else feel like me.....or am I weird (don't answer that last bit!)

rolexcd · 12 August 2009, 08:27 PM

Wow, I really like the black dial ss one. Will definitely buy one if there is an offer by one of our dealers within the forum.

Just Kidding Coinago, Hey, if they're not for you that's what makes the Rolex line so great, there are others that are!

JCirillo · 13 August 2009, 12:20 AM

Jubilee Bracelet?? domed bezel, SS silver dial, 40mm, will be on list.

alphamale2012 · 13 August 2009, 02:47 AM

They look great, thanks for the pics and preview.

theloxmyth · 13 August 2009, 03:32 AM

WOW!

Thanks for taking your time to post these, Mario.

I like the increased size.

The black w/white is my choice, too.

I had my heart set upon a new TOG, but...

Hard choice!

Yes, agreed........but by the time that comes out, the prices will have escalated a few more $$$.

Thanks for the photo report!

I really like the black dialled. Checked it out two weeks ago at one of the local AD:s.

They are BIG ;-)

Best,

A

mck22 · 13 August 2009, 04:12 AM

vambeck · 13 August 2009, 06:28 AM

Hey guys,

I know iam going to be in the minority but i love the two tone with the luminous at 9 o clock, I just love that green on the black of the roman numerals!!

ZakBlak · 13 August 2009, 09:05 AM

Absolutely stunning. Those watches are perfect. Rolex outdid themsevles again.
Now I want won also.

GerardoG · 13 August 2009, 09:44 AM

Thank you for sharing; not my cup of tea but nice watches indeed

TheVTCGuy · 13 August 2009, 09:45 AM

JJ... anybody.. will they have the roulette date? Anybody know?

presario · 13 August 2009, 09:48 AM

Wow, can't wait to see this on a Jubilee bracelet! I love the arabic model that JJ is eying. I'd like the numbers to be plain lume though. Thanks for the pics!

oztimelord · 13 August 2009, 05:54 PM

Nice and elegant

shandy · 14 August 2009, 01:40 AM

Thanks for sharing. Could you tell us the actual Canadian prices as discounts can vary from dealer to dealer and from customer to customer..Thanks

Not sure, but maybe the OP could answer this question since he saw the watches in person.

JPersat · 14 August 2009, 03:47 AM

Thats not a watch, its a weapon! Just beautiful.

VABCHRNR4 · 14 August 2009, 09:11 AM

JJ I'm with you! The silver with Arabic is a very nice looking watch! As mentioned earlier, is the blue on the first pic really that blue? I'm a big fan of blue but I'm not sure if that light of a blue would look right? I've called two AD's that I deal with locally and they are saying late September when they'd be receiving them...Is that what everyone else is hearing or are they out somewhere already?!

Been looking at either a SS DJ or GV Milgauss but now it looks like I'm just going to have wait a few more weeks!

I saw the blue dial watch today, that is a fair representation of the actual blue, a bit too washed out for my liking!

I don't recall exactly what the MSRP was... I will ask the AD when I get a chance.

I took the photo below having set both watches to odd days for that very reason! Maybe sometime in the future? Is the roulette wheel available on the DD or DDII? That may be an indicator...
