Rolex Datejust

This watch looks great on the wrist, and I feel like 36 millimeters is a perfect fit for my 6 1/2-inch wrist. It's incredibly comfortable to wear.

10 years ago if you would have told me if I would be in love with a two tone Rolex Datejust I would have laughed!. Fast forward to 2021 and here we are with this beauty strapped to my wrist. I had been considering picking up a piece with some gold in it and was drawn to the classic Datejust with the fluted bezel and jubilee bracelet. I stopped by my dealer to inquire and they happened to have this configuration with the newly released fluted motif dial and boy is it a looker!.

These are the Rolex Datejust 126200 (36mm, black dial) on Oyster bracelet and the Cartier Santos Medium on a black leather strap. I last reduced my collection down to three watches in early 2020 after getting the Datejust, but I'm debatting selling the Omega SMPc to further reduce my collection.

Some people say the dial is busy but I’ve never had any difficulty reading the time on this watch. In any case, PP is no stranger to busy dials if we’re really honest. Rolex Datejust 36. Nobody can deny that the Rolex brand has a curious allure.

The watch is an absolute looker and the fluted + jubilee combination is the best configuration on a datejust IMO. Not a big fan of the hoops you gotta jump through to get a Rolex at retail these days, but few can find fault with the absolute quality and finish of these things.

This is the 36mm Rolex Datejust in stainless steel with black sunburst dial on the Oyster bracelet. Reference number 126200. I chose this configuration because I was looking for a new & simple (in terms of design) daily wearer when I bought it. The smaller 36mm size makes the watch very comfortable to wear in all situations and I can even wear it slightly loose, which is giving me major vintage vibes (something something jingly-jangly).

Rolex Datejust 41 (Blue Dial) - My newest purchase that rounds and completes the collection for now. This is very fresh, only bought 2 weeks ago for my 30th birthday. It not only means a lot to me as I found it on my 30th birthday (this exact configuration was in my wishlist for some time), but it was also bought with my first commission bonus of my first sales job.

Ok I may have to let some reps go because I found a watch I absolutely love!. It’s the Rolex Lady-Datejust in 28mm - but they have this NEW stunning dial where the diamond markers are also stars and it’s so cute.

A two-tone Rolex Datejust: it's such a cheesy "80's cocaine yuppie" style watch that it's in my opinion almost a parody of itself... but I still like it! (alternatively it's something I could imagine an elderly man wearing on a way too loose bracelet on his badly sunburned wrist). It's actually the only Rolex I would ever even consider getting!.

Originally, I was looking for a Rolex Datejust but could simply not find one (MSRP) due to the massive supply shortage. I walked in to the Omega store “just to look” but ended up falling in love with this piece. I had not seen this particular model at other stores and ended up pulling the trigger to buy it. I loved the sharp contrast in the dial and indexes; really was the selling point for me.
