    Btw - the watch looks amazing - great choice. Love the Jubilee and the fluted bezel. The size is great too. I like it a lot more than your Sub. The Sub has a great Public Relations team, but the datejust is pure class.

    Elegant piece, such class. I just got the call for my DJ41 blue dial with the fluted bezel last week and I can't keep my eyes off of it. I know this feeling way too well lol that feeling of excitement from getting the call (after what feels like a lifetime of waiting) is unlike anything else! Enjoy it my friend!

    Gorgeous watch. Congratulations! I love both watches for different reasons. One is an amazing sports/tool watch, and the Datejust just exudes elegance. The Wimbledon dial is amazing isn't it? I own the same watch in 41mm. Wear it in good health my friend!

    I was so lucky yesterday. I got this exact watch immediately at my local AD. It was my dream watch too and thought i need to put my name in the waiting list, but to my surprise they had it on display in the shop. The watch just arrived the day before.

    Datejust looks so much better on your wirst. Perfect size for you at 36. The Sub looked a bit too big because of the end to end lugs which looks like it hangs over a bit.

  • @Slong970
    @Slong970 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    If a AD told me it is going to be a wait of 8 months - 1 year I would go straight to a reputable grey market dealer and buy it right away. No sense in waiting. Your 20 Grand is the same as a rappers 20 Grand. We've known about these judgmental sales ways inside an AD store for a long time. It's crazy how ADs have big discrimination to the hard workers who worked years, maybe decades to walk into the store and get their 1st true luxury watch. They will tell him no. Then sell it to the rapper or millionaire in hopes of a more frequent returning customer. If an AD says yes to sell a regular Joe a watch they will always tell him "don't bring your wife". Lots of single watch chronoseurs out there haha.

  • @todwcampbell
    @todwcampbell 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @garythomas3150
    @garythomas3150 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Congrats! I got the fluted bezel Wimbledon dial about a month ago too! Mine is 41mm and with an oyster bracelet though. And…I bought mine on the grey market for a giant up charge….. Good for you to get the one you wanted from the AD.

    • @mudah5807
      @mudah5807 ปีที่แล้ว

      I got mine on grey market last Thursday. Compared to other sellers I got a decent deal but still a premium. I was just sick of waiting and AD's B.S. in my city they only cell to high rollers and back door sales to the resellers. Hope u like your peice as much as I do. Cheers :))

  • @benfranklin3638
    @benfranklin3638 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I still think 36mm is the perfect size for a datejust unless you have monster hands. Much better balance than the 41 imho.

    Congratulations, I am very excited for you as you now own two iconic Rolex models. The 36mm Wimbledon dial DJ with jubilee and fluted bezel is the bomb! I also own a Sub and a DJ, but I got my DJ first, then had to wait 8 months for my Sub. I have the green bezel Sub and the 41mm, smooth bezel, black dial, oyster bracelet DJ. I want to get either a 36mm Explorer or a 36mm OP (blue, green or turquoise dial) as my third Rolex.

    Beautiful watch! My first choice also. I’d be glad to wait a year for a DJ. But according to my AD (Rotterdam) there are no waiting lists anymore, at least not for the most popular (steel sports) watches. The demand is just to high. Orders are not accepted.
