First Rolex - TT DJ 2

I just graduated about 2.5 years ago and my company shipped me off to Dubai, so i thought I'd get this to keep me company here for the next year. I just took a quick shot of it, but hope to get some better ones up soon.

I tried on a SS Datejust II White stick dial yesterday at an AD in vegas and im very impressed. It fits me well and looks proportioned. The one thing I cant figure is to what catagory it fits; is it a large "dress" watch or a dressy sports watch?
Either way, Im very impressed with the piece...
Enjoy yours!

congrats. That is a nice piece.
I'm sure it will keep you happy in Dubai.

I'm so jealous.... There are about 45 sleeps to go before I get mine.

Very nice. I think that's the first diamond dial Datejust II that I've seen.

Thanks guys I was really stuck between the DJ2, TT GMT IIc and the SS Daytona, only thing that turned me off the Daytona was no date but it was a beautiful watch, and I ended up getting the DJ2. I knew the DJ came with diamond markers, but this DJ2 model was only released 2 weeks ago, and as soon as I put it on I knew it was the watch I wanted. Now I can stop reading everyones posts about their own Rolex and enjoy one of my own.

Great choice! You've essentially got an updated-modern version of the quintessential DJ!

Looks awesome on your wrist. Thanks for the pictures!
