Can you guys post some pics comparing a DATEJUST vs. SEA DWELLER 16600?

I have a DJ and want to have an idea of size difference as an SD is tempting me.

Thanks!

Get the SD! I miss mine!

Here's a picture of my SD next to my wife's Datejust. Really not a very clear difference in size when there next to each other. I would recommend going for the SD.

zeuloa · 8 August 2011, 01:10 AM

Great pics!!! WOW... There really isn't that much difference!

Do you guys have a side/profile pic to compare height?

Thanks!

watchmadness · 8 August 2011, 01:49 AM

Great Pics... love the sea dweller!

Boy do I missed my DJ. Darn you guys lol

FWIW I own two SS datejusts and a sd. I love all three. While I wear whatever I feel like on a daily basis, I typically find myself wearing the DJs to work during the week, and my sd on weekends. Just feels right to me.

the reason i like the sea dweller is the nice beefy bracelet

Looks like the bezel on the SD is what adds the size difference. Otherwise, the dials appear to be about the same size???

The Sea-Dweller's case is indeed larger but it is hard to appreciate when you see them side by side. The SD is also thicker and heavier as well.

These are the measurements of the SD:
Case 39.5 (mm) Sold as a 40mm case
Thickness 14.8 (mm)
Bezel Diameter39.5 (mm)
Crystal 29.5 (mm)
Bracelet width at ends 20 (mm)
Clasp width 17 (mm)

Measurements of the Datejust Ref. 16200:
Case 35 (mm) Sold as a 36mm case
Thickness 11.7 (mm)
Bezel Diameter 34.5 (mm)
Crystal 30.5 (mm)
Bracelet width at ends 20 (mm)
Clasp width 16.8 (mm)

Hope this helps clarify the difference in size.

I just posted the measurements of the case, bezel, crystal, thickness, etc.

Eric88 · 8 August 2011, 08:49 AM

How about weight differences? Thanks.

Submarino · 8 August 2011, 11:07 AM

Don't have the weight information but I would say the SD should be at least 15-25grs heavier.

brownbear · 8 August 2011, 11:08 AM

here are a few of my DD (same size as DJ) and SD..
u will love the SD.... It is so understated and no one knows what it is..
very confy also..

zeuloa · 8 August 2011, 11:59 PM

Mr.xeloR · 11 August 2011, 08:45 PM

SD every time well worth any wait. Trust me I waited almost three years and I am so pleased.
