Datejust II in detail
Pics tell the story. Most comfortable watch ever, for me. The smooth finishing of the bracelet and clasp make it light as air on the wrist. Having a tough time takin it off!

The case polishing is something else. When it catches the sun, it looks like white gold or platinum, stunning really.

Dial detail is great, love the beveling on the white gold roman markers. Curved AR coated sapphire would be the only improvement I can think of. Oh, and sapphire case back - this is something I may look at down the line..

Looks great!

I agree about having AR on the crystal, on the underside at least.

Stunning, looks fantastic. Clear caseback... that would be killer.

Bonus is accuracy. Settling into +3s from +5s at purchase three weeks ago.
