We review the best-selling, Rolex of all time. A classic timeless example of the brands dedication to sophistication and functionality. Worn by countless world leaders and celebrities from Winston Churchill to Martin Luther King and movie appearances in films such as Wolf of Wall Street and American Psycho, this is the best Rolex you can buy. The Rolex Datejust 36 is the watch that changed history for being the world's first self-winding chronometer wristwatch to display the date of the month through a window on the dial and this has not changed despite remaining in production for more than three quarters of a century. This is the very best Rolex to buy!

I have the same one of those. The reason why I bought are: Fluted bezel is too shiny; Explorer and OP are too quiet; 41mm DJ is not in good proportion (Submariner is good for 41mm not DJ); Blue dial is better than black or white dial; Jubilee is comfortable. So this DJ is perfect.

Just a pure classic! My preference is the fluted bezel with the jubilee, and the blue fluted motif dial if possible too! Otherwise I like the smooth bezel with the oyster bracelet. Gives two totally different looks to the DJ, a dressy/flashy version or a sporty everyday version. But definitely blue dial either way for me!

The Datejust was my one watch collection for 23 years until I sold the last one, which I regret to this day. Now with a collection of 8 watches I wanted to go back to the Datejust a couple years ago but the price was just too high. Went with an Aqua Terra instead, which is great, but I still miss the Datejust. It’s the only Rolex model I’ve ever owned. I had 3 of them over time. As you said, you can get different variations, which I did. Never had a blue one, very sharp.

I had thought about selling the DJ (which I bought new from an AD in 2014) over the years and I'm glad I didn't...for one they are hard to get, and two they are way more expensive now. I just retrieved it from the SD box and decided to wear and enjoy it.

I have an old one, a 1971 silver dail model with machined bezel. A classic of course. But I’m stunned about the beauty of this blue dail. And I think the smooth bezel makes it look less as a “grandfathers watch”. Still, no one will doubt that it’s a Date Just. Rolex has always been good at this. Development, but never at the cost of identity.

Essentially the same just a different dial I just feel the jubilee bracelet gives it the dressier kind of pop to the watch but then the classic smooth bezzle dims it down a notch where you can wear that to a formal occasion, on casual occasions, etc.

Should you get fluted or non fluted bezel?
@erikkinginnyc
@erikkinginnyc 10 ай бұрын
Totally your choice but fluted bezel is more traditional and and as someone recently mentioned a "Grandad Feeling". I like the smooth. Both great but the fluted is definitely more blingy.

IMO The fluted is more dressy/flashy. The smooth makes for a better daily and versatile wearer, especially on the jubilee and with a good dial colour choice. Personally I like the blue, or mint green on the smooth/jubilee combo.

I have a chance of buying the 36 Datejust with the scalloped bezel for 8500 Euro. Keep in mind I will get 19% Back at the Airport in Customs since US Residents aren't subject to the German 19% Value added Tax. So it will be roughly about 7200 Euro or about 7500 US Dollars. I am just afraid that it will be too small on my 7.87(20cm) wrist. I wish the store had a 41 but 36 is the only size they have. All my Omegas and Tag and Breitlings are in the 40 to 42 mm range. I will go back to the store tomorrow and try it on one more time.

Sounds like you like 40mm + from your watches and you don't have a small wrist. Probably happier with 41. I know it's tough when one is available from an AD but have to make sure your happy with it.
