New Most Elegant Datejust!
They say you can't tell if you really love a watch until you try it on. Well ain't that the truth. Saw it in the case and had a crush. I put it on and fell in love.

I wanted a TT Rolex but something that really made a statement and one that I wouldn't see in the wild. I sold my 2 year old bluesy as I've developed bad arthritis and it just wore too heavy to be comfortable. Pretty much that meant DJ. I have a SS black and silver tuxedo dial and to me the 36mm is the perfect size and weight. I toyed with a YM in rose and steel but in the end, this one won me over.

Everose & steel with rose diamond set dial.

Brand new, AD purchase and a happy customer!
Thanks for looking!

Beautiful piece. Sorry to hear about the arthritis, too bad you had to let go of the bluesy for that. But a 36mm DJ with jubilee will be the most comfortable watch for you. Enjoy.

Yeah I get that. But the watch you wear that may be less collectable is better than the one you don't

That is certainly an exquisite reference! Love the rose and the diamonds.

I bought the exact one for my sister last year for Christmas and luckily it fits me with the easy link open. I “borrow” it at times to wear.

Indeed very nice and elegant. 36mm is just right

How easy is to read it, especially in low light?

Certainly the one big drawback of this reference. No lume! The hands are everose so it's not the easiest to read but manageable. I think though the general effect of all that rose thought is what sold me on the watch.

Beautiful watch and I like how it fits your wrist -- 36 is the perfect size for a dress watch! Congratulations.
