Alex,
one more question: which is your feeling about the matching of large indices with the watch hands ? In the initial pics the hands look smaller compared to the indices, but on your pics it seems ok.

Which is your impressions ?

Thanks,

Engi

Moe99 · 25 August 2009, 09:57 PM

Nice watch!! Way to go Alex. Enjoy in good health and Cheers.

Lol-x · 25 August 2009, 10:16 PM

Congrats man, you are the first I've seen with this new model.

Trurolexer · 25 August 2009, 11:36 PM

Engi,
You're right about the indices /watch hands. I think they look great because even though the indices are thicker with lume in the middle with a little bit of gold around them, the hands are more gold than lume which makes them stand out. When it's dark, the indices glow neatly.

Thanks Lol-X
I'm still amazed. I can't believe the AD in Cancun got them earlier than many other countries in the world. They had DSSD, the new ceramic Sub SS/Blue face, YG Daytonas, WG Daytonas, YG DDII, WG DDII, etc. Thanks again for all the support and encouragement TRF gives us.

Congrats on quite a watch............

Starwalker · 26 August 2009, 01:04 AM

i love the size, the dial and the oyster bracelet! Bellisimo!

Roselló · 26 August 2009, 01:37 AM

Beautiful, enjoy it.

Rolesor · 26 August 2009, 01:56 AM

salivating for more pictures.. why can't I get enough?? I think I've officially been smitten by the DJ II... ooohhh noooo haha

jameshe · 26 August 2009, 02:08 AM

Simply incredible Alex. I think I was probably one of the first few like you on here who had a deposit down - also a ss/wg - but couldn't bear the wait and took the chance to get one of the last few sea dweller around as it was my 21st last month, and I had been told I could be waiting until atleast September - possibly even December!

I have just got a part time job in a local AD to help me through my final year of study - perhaps I shall be saving for one with staff discount!!

gargaamit · 26 August 2009, 05:15 AM

Amit, sounds awesome! Do you have any pictures you could post?

I am sure the other guys here are just as excited to see more shots as I am

Congrats indeed

Alex,

That watch looks fantastic.

I'm not sure how it would look on my arm, but it looks great on you.

After seeing your choice, I think I like it the best of all the DJ II configurations I've seen in photos.

If I were to buy one, that's probably the one I'd buy.

Congratulations!

Otto

Otto,
thank you very much for your message. It really took me a while (1 hour) to make up my mind and buy it. First, I didn't want to wait any longer. Second, I had never thought about how yellow gold looks on me. Third, I wasn't expecting to pay 2,000 USD more for a TT... but then I was thinking: I deserve this watch !

I like it more and more everyday, I take care of it too much (but it still gets scratches, speciall on the PCL).

James,
when I read that you had gotten the DSSD instead the DJII I was so surprised because I knew you had wanted it for so long. Last friday when me and my wife were @AD, they had the DSSD and it was the only one catching my wife's attention. She wanted me to buy it but then she tought that it looked as big and massive as my Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean (45.5 mm). Beautiful choice. Do you think you can get some pictures of the other DJ II now with your new job? I would like to see other dials. How much would the DJII be in UK? I paid 8145 USD for my DJII YG/SS.

Great watch. Super. Can I ask how much you paid for yours as I will be going to get one (black dial) myself.

Many thanks.

Amit,

Thanks for the info. Excellent price that you have paid for as I expected that it should be more. Since I have got all mine in black, can't do much but to go for the black. Consistencey, I like!!!

6 Grand? Isn't that a pretty decent discount? I would have thought there would be zero wiggle room on a new "hot" item like that.

What is the MSRP on your model? Congrats on that! What a great watch!

gargaamit · 27 August 2009, 01:00 AM

hey guyz i kno the discount is pretty decent
