1601

Yeah, I like the DJ. It's one of the great all rounders. Hard to think of a better watch in a one watch collection.

Despite the online watch community's love (well deserved I admit) of the Sub, the DateJust is Rolex's leading seller. Probably because it comes in multiple sizes and is marketed to both sexes.

Awaiting unwrapping of the lovely Datejust I have for my wife for Christmas, it is 36mm and I have the extra links to put back in the bracelet if she ever tires of wearing it !
The only pic I have at this point is in the worst Rolex picture thread so no point posting that again!

It's my favourite watch in my collection by a long stretch. I agonised over whether to go for a DJ or a GMT II / Explorer II, and ended up going for the 116200. I don't regret my decision one bit. Absolutely adore the super jubilee.

I've been seeing more and more women with them lately, and I think they look great on them!
As much as I love the look of the 1600, I want/need sapphire so 16200 it is.
I got the silver dial with the oyster bracelet, black with jubilee. I tried them out on both, and ended up with black on oyster.
I truly like how this watch is under the radar, super comfortable, and an actual timeless classic, unlike so many that pretend to be so.
