I’ve had my eye on this watch for quite some time and I couldn’t pass up this opportunity. I found a brand new one (Oct 2018 warranty card but unworn) for <$7k and it’s a full kit.

I was recently talking about how awesome the new 3235 Rolex movement is (which you get in the new DJ36/41, YM40, etc.), but there was something charming to me about the old dial (railroad track w/ Roman numerals), the chunky case (I have larger wrists), and the hidden jubilee clasp (lacks Easylink but hides scratches much better; also no longer available). The price increase for the new model also made my stomach churn a bit, so for nearly $2k less I’m pretty happy with this score.

I also like how it’s a truly iconic design in the classic size with the classic silver dial. I already have black and gray and white dial watches, so the silver is a nice little variation. We’ll see how the 36mm on jubilee feels and looks on the wrist, but either way I think it was a pretty safe buy.

I’ll post some live pics once she shows up in the mail. Anyone else have a 36mm DJ in the collection???

And good point about the Subs! Lots of really good stuff out there when it comes to divers.

Me recreating the Instagram photo I originally posted. I really enjoy the classic 36mm size, and this watch will go with anything.

How much? Warranty left?

Davidsw has the same exact watch (his has stickers though) for over a thousand more...

Thought I’d share a photo comparing these two beauties. So similar, yet so different. In comparison, the OP39 definitely puts out a way more casual vibe than I originally realized.

I know I will get hated by saying this. Do you think gay pride events are portraying a bad image about our community to public? (Drugs, sexual, inappropriate clothes, and sometimes like strip clubs- some parts). I know it is right to present us but I just feel it is not the right way to show who we are. I wish the pride where everybody can connect in a more friendly way (outdoor game- team work, dance, drink something not too sexual.) there are some good parts of pride tho. Any opinions?
