RobbieG Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 As most of you know I'm a big champion of Rolex watches, specifically DD's and DJ's. The perfect all around pieces for sleeves and nothing but nothing shines like Rolex steel. I never get sick of looking at DJ's and DD's so give me my fix. We haven't done a DJ/DD thread in a while, so see those pics. I've had a DJ or DD in the box in one form or another for 15 years. They come and go, but here is the current one, a rhodium roman oyster M... ...and we gotta have some wristies in here too guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lanikai Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Genuine dials are just soooo crisp and clean.. Roman numerals ... imo.. really makes this piece.. The silver gray ... Just a classy looker.. nice that it goes well with casual wear too !! "SOLID!!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronin Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Wow, this post just converted me. I was pretty much a "Rolex Sports Model" guy until now. Thanks for making my wallet lighter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobbieG Posted May 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Yeah, with an oyster bracelet and domed bezel these watches become alot more flexable. They also chaged the case shape recently. They have broader "shouders" now - thicker lugs. But with the same case width and lug width. It is amazing how much such a little change has made the watch appear so much bigger. I never cared as even the original case size (which is still with the DD btw) wears plenty big believe it or not - as long as you don't violate the cardinal rule & wear short sleves with them. Short sleves will make these look smaller. But for those who are interested, I have a 7.5" wrist which is bigger than average and as you can see from the wristies, the watch looks anything but small. Plus, the watch shines so much more with the 904 and finish spec that were it to be any bigger it would be too loud. I'll never get over how much more shiny my Rolex watches have been than anything else because of this. Nothing shines like Rolex metal... Thanks for all the compliments, but where are the other DJ's I requested? Post em' up boys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john7830 Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 That is a beautiful watch. The steel is beautiful, and those Roman numerals REALLY make it complete. You can wear that casual or with a $2K suit and it would still never look out of place. Are the DJ and DD Rolex's water proof as all the others are? Just curious.

Absolutely - although not like a SD or DS though. Not that you need that level of protection unless you are a hardcore diver anyway...
