That champagne dial literally matches with any color of clothing . Truly versatile . Do you think this watch is more versatile than the two tone blue sub ?
Great video. I just bought a steel/gold DJ41 with white dial, smooth bezel and oyster bracelet. It is an absolutely spectacular watch with a state-of-the-art movement, gorgeous looks and complete versatility. In the $10-15k range it’s one of the very best watches available today and I’m thrilled to own it.
Full Rolex DNA and recognisable as such from across a room, both positives and negatives to that factor. As it’s not in style it’s not out of style and sits outside the current trends in a league of its own. Looks great poking out of a suit cuff. Dressy and smart. The perfect change up from the ubiquitous steel and black sports watch. The stock in trade of Rolex and the bread and butter of their ADs. With so much hype over Rolex sports models it goes unsaid that these are the watches that built the Rolex empire. Maybe every true watch enthusiast needs to experience a Datejust.
I dont like the new clasp. It seems to me that rolex decided to use a little less gold on this bracelet or i cant find another reason to use it while the other was more suitable for a classic dress watch. And they still use the hidden clasp in daydate 2016 so that reveals they consider it more classy so its sad they wanted to avoid using some extra gold on datejust. Didnt expect this from rolex.
I do not think it scaled that well as others have said the 39 mm would have been a better size. I am not really a fan of Rolex generally but I like this watch a lot.
Man, I can't believe I paid $1,800.00 USD for my datejust. Of course it was 1984. Never been cleaned and still keeps perfect time. We bought my wifes Ladies datejust with a blue face and crystal bezel at Bucherer in Switzerland for a mere $1,100.00
This time piece definitely speaks to the Rolex brand. The two tone color pay with the jubilee tapered bracelet. I’m a bit young but I love me a good pair of penny loafers. That being said the updated clamp is a with this piece puts a modern spin on a classic watch.
Marc Goldberg Rolex have ramped up the price of all their watches over the last 10-20 years and restricted supply, creating demand! Pop into any authorised dealer and attempt to buy any of the popular models and take a seat before they tell you how long the waiting list is! That’s why you see used ones for sale way above the rrp of a new one from non-authorised dealers!
It’s COSC certified and Rolex Superlative Chronometer certified, which is far more stringent than COSC. that means a +/- within 2 seconds. Yes it is also anti magnetic as the balance wheel has parachrome which is an anti magnetic alloy.
It's amazing how popular this watch color combination is. The gold hands against the champagne "gold" dial can make it difficult to read, especially at night.
Omg I totally agree!! I was just talking to my father about this the other day!! Vintage GMT Master used to come on a jubilee bracelet...they need to fit the GMT Master ii with one!
gorgeous..but the way the 36mm wraps the wrist is impeccable. *although each person is different* Why did they put that clasp on a jubilee though. Looks very odd...the jubilee should be fluent/same all the way around IMO
CrystalClear vlog I believe all the gold parts are 18k gold but as its two metals they would have to hallmark ever individual piece and bracelet link to be able to market it as such! Therefore it’s marketed as “Steel and Yellow metal”!
CVC this is a super jubilee. Same with the hidden clasp. They are not hollow anymore so there is no more stretch like the old jubilees. That’s why the new ones are called super jubilee.
Appreciate if you can let us know what's your wrist size? I tried it on at an AD, it doesn't wear big like a 41mm. I compared it with my GMT IIc and almost identical in size.
Sorry to rain on your parade but the datejust 41mm looks best in steel. The reason why i say this is because the steel 41mm is very understated and more sporty looking then the tt.
I feel like the 41 with a smooth bezel looks good not so much with the fluted bezel might buy it instead of a submariner for my full steel more sporty casual t shirt and shorts watch...however the 36 will always be the most perfect iconic do it all piece
i am 24 years old i like this watcha lot but people dont recommend it to me because its more classic kind of watch yet i do like its day date look it has
I sorry, but it needs to be 41mm! I have a Rolex Explorer 1 that has the 39mm case size and it looks like I'm wearing my wife's watch. Especially the way they made the bracelet it tappers to the clasp too much. My wife said it looks small and that she would take over the watch for me. One size doesn't fit all!
For sure. Tons of variations for both men and women, in production continuously across at least seven decades, appropriate for any occasion, and thousands of dollars less than the Daytona.
Honestly the 41 is nice. I have it in SS and silver and it’s perfect. The 36mm is just too small on my wrist. It gets complemented every time I wear it.
That champagne dial literally matches with any color of clothing . Truly versatile . Do you think this watch is more versatile than the two tone blue sub ?
Timeless watch, it's still my favorite...
Is a "timeless" watch a good thing? Asking for a friend.
+1 the essential Rolex
how much do these cost? whats the value?
It's a real shame that they decided to replace the "old style" bracelet close system. :(
The concealed crown clasp? Where its bracelet all the way around ??
the fluted or engine turned bezel is better because it gets less scratches
And it reflects so much light. It's like a light show, in person.

Timeless, elegant, classy and beautiful watch. I owned one in black, awesome all around watch.
Just picked one of these up with a black face. The size is perfect in my opinion and the black face is awesome!
Does the black dial have sunburst effect?
Nice bro!
@David Topchiev Wassup
You mean black dial. Blackface is something else, lol.
Owl much was it guv ?
I like de hidden clasp of the Super Jubilee too and I don't understand why they made this decision. I guess this is more of a iconic retro design.
Pasquale You're 100% right.

I am normally not a fan of the two-tone watch,but this is gorgeous! But I am one that would prefer the hidden clasp over the oyster style deployant.
The deployant clasp works as a counterbalance weight aswell to give it better balance on the wrist.
Still like the 36 more
Loek Lodewijck Unless you have very small wrists the “36” looks too small in today’s world of large watches!
I do not think it scaled that well as others have said the 39 mm would have been a better size. I am not really a fan of Rolex generally but I like this watch a lot.
It actually measures 39.5mm
I have this watch with the silver dial. I def need to upgrade to this
Rolex Datejust 41 gold is a perfect watch for the price. My opinion.
Whats the price?
About 13k usd
@@bcxw
Is that after taxes ...?
James Carter yes
could you do a review on the rolex datejust 36mm black dial with index hour? Thanks
I love this watch! it screams success!
Yessir !!

So nervous to witness date change on the new 3235 movement throughout the whole video, but it seems to be shot at noon... orz
Holy cow, that price! I bought my 36 mm two tone DJ in 1987 for somewhere around $3000 new at the A.D. I get that this is a much larger watch but wow.
In quebec we often pay 1,40$/L and up
Has much more gold: bigger bezel, solid links and gold on clasp. Not to mention the updated movement!

What’s your wrist size? Please start stating that within the reviews, it serves as a solid reference point for size
no one is mentioning the most important question: how does it keep time (sec per day-week-month)?
Is it Anti-Magnetic to some extent ?
Xenos Xanthippe Perfect. Yes.
It’s COSC certified and Rolex Superlative Chronometer certified, which is far more stringent than COSC. that means a +/- within 2 seconds. Yes it is also anti magnetic as the balance wheel has parachrome which is an anti magnetic alloy.
Could you do a video on comparing Datejust 41 with Datejust 2?
I LOVE the fluted bezel
Very classy

Glen Daly, at night you sleep!
@@_Sam62 😂😂😂
Anyone know where I can get a datejust like this for a price range of 3000-4000$ , preferably a smaller size ! Any suggestions?
Is a 16233 36mm rolex datejust two tone champagne dial worth $4,000 a good deal? Thinking of buying it.
When do you think the new movement and the slimmer and thinner case will arrive on the steel version?
Is it me or does this new 2016 model Datejust have a smaller magnification? My dad's datejust has a date that just pops out larger than this new one.
i think this jubilee bracelet would fit perfectly on a two tone gmt master 2
Omg I totally agree!! I was just talking to my father about this the other day!! Vintage GMT Master used to come on a jubilee bracelet...they need to fit the GMT Master ii with one!
Totally agree! I was just going to say this!
Totally agree! I was just going to say this!
They did that 40 years ago with the Rootbeer!
And it flopped
I hope this takes off and we see hundreds of nice 36mm for sale in the used market - then maybe I get one at a reasonable price
Hi! What is your wrist size?
Hi one question, is all these watches yours or do you do commercial for rolex?
What’s the price point?
$13,250 USD from an authorized dealer
where did yo buy her
So they just evened out the proportions of the dj 2?
Pretty much yeah
And put in an updated movement
gorgeous..but the way the 36mm wraps the wrist is impeccable. *although each person is different* Why did they put that clasp on a jubilee though. Looks very odd...the jubilee should be fluent/same all the way around IMO
Nice one Mr. Adams!
It's an Oyserclasp with an Easylink, the same as on the Milgauss.
whats the price this days for this watch
Always wondered how much gold content in this datejust 41 piece? anyone can tell me?
CrystalClear vlog 12700 plus tax in ny
CrystalClear vlog I believe all the gold parts are 18k gold but as its two metals they would have to hallmark ever individual piece and bracelet link to be able to market it as such!
Therefore it’s marketed as “Steel and Yellow metal”!
Great content as always. 👍🏼
what is the cost?
Is it have water resistance?
whats your wrist size do you have a video with the 36 mm version?
The fluted bezel is a must have on this watch. It makes the watch pop!
Yeah totally, don't get why people like the smooth one
Whats the price?
Will the jubilee stretch over time or have they fixed it with the ceramic inserts like the day date bracelet?
CVC this is a super jubilee. Same with the hidden clasp. They are not hollow anymore so there is no more stretch like the old jubilees. That’s why the new ones are called super jubilee.
you have well maintained hands. thank you.
can get this with white dial too :)

Alex Tan 6.5 I think
Alex Tan If you measure it, you'll get 39.5:)
Very attractive looking watch, the dial is so beautiful 😍
Classic watch. I love this configuration
Hey Ariel, can you please review the new Tudor Style?
Wrist size?
Didnt the Datejust 2 had the fluted bezel in white gold?
Boros777 yep
What size does your wrist have ?
Why is a used datejust is like half that price
My favorite Rolex Datejust 41 mm and President 40 mm gold 😎👍👍👍
Fine watch indeed...very nice!
Sorry to rain on your parade but the datejust 41mm looks best in steel. The reason why i say this is because the steel 41mm is very understated and more sporty looking then the tt.
Tom 84 In your opinion!
No lume display? :(
Yeah, it's got a lume display.
Stop saying 'uhm'....jeez
I feel like the 41 with a smooth bezel looks good not so much with the fluted bezel might buy it instead of a submariner for my full steel more sporty casual t shirt and shorts watch...however the 36 will always be the most perfect iconic do it all piece
James G Just how small are your wrists?
Where can I get this model with a hidden clasp
Most Hated Try a Rolex dealer and ask for a “Super Jubilee” bracelet!
Is a 41mm too large for a woman’s wrist? Thank you
americanpriness1 Depends on the woman!
Most ideal size and look for a rollie.
Love mine with the black dial. Will never get why it’s so disliked in the watch community by sports model snobs
Not only that, I prefer it with a black face, I like the contrast.
best watch Rolex makes hands down... 20 senseless dislikes smh...
Idk how you can stand to wear that thing above the bone. Feels absolutely wrong. Like going 55 in a 75 in the left lane.
i prefer the twelve diamond studs on the clock face to this model
Hayden Cato What are you, a rapper!
Tacky tacky tacky!
Clock face ? Watch dial
I'm sorry, but 41mm is way too big for a Datejust. It needs to be 36 - 39mm
i am 24 years old i like this watcha lot but people dont recommend it to me because its more classic kind of watch yet i do like its day date look it has
I sorry, but it needs to be 41mm! I have a Rolex Explorer 1 that has the 39mm case size and it looks like I'm wearing my wife's watch.

Udai Hussein You like it? Buy it. People? Who cares
smibru The word is that it actually measures at 39.5 across the case. Plus its thinner and smoother than the DJ2. It's perfect
Aaron Spektor , you obviously don't know what you are talking about! 39.5 lug to lug? You need to remeasure it. Lol.
is this more popular than the daytona?
For sure. Tons of variations for both men and women, in production continuously across at least seven decades, appropriate for any occasion, and thousands of dollars less than the Daytona.
+Greg Stella your comment is so on point man, kudos to you!
looks so nice
I’m getting this for the missus
This was a well explained video
That is absolutely stunning, but personally, I still prefer a 36mm DJ.. Thanks for this blog. 🙌
hong kong businessman love this watch....
tedwijaya1 very true but they love the submariner even more
Asian markets tend to prefer smaller sizes.
the old clasp look better on the DJ
36mm is to small 41mm is more modern, 2 tone not so nice......
very strange response........
I could live with 39mm to 42mm depending on piece, but 36mm way to small...... To each his own, that's why there are menu's in restaurants.
@ Dylan, do you talk bollox every day or is it just the weekends?
THE BESTT ROLEX FH956
THE BEST ROLEX FH956
The size is garish
How much for this joobli 41 model
Prefer the black dial and 36
There are a lot of people who would love to see 39mm or 40mm versions of these Rolex Datejust watches..
yea NBA,NFL, MLB Players
Scott Free Regular people (with money) too..
40 wont make any difference from a 41. 39 maybe noticeable.
Honestly the 41 is nice. I have it in SS and silver and it’s perfect. The 36mm is just too small on my wrist. It gets complemented every time I wear it.
Well, this one is actually a 39mm dunno why they called it 41mm tho. You can measure it yourself if you don't believe me.
How much?🔥🔥
its around 13k euros:)
I bought a Rolex Datejust 2 and really would never get one again ... just doesn't appeal to me
Panerai Ferrari so why did you buy one then?
MAADMO I think the “User name” answers that!
(Hung like a mouse) lol
i just dont get mixed metal
Love this watch just not the 2 tone.
Tyler1989 Think with the Jubilee it has to be!
this guy says UM too much!
best datejust dial
Old style clasp would have sold the piece, like this is just a patch.
I have a 3 rolexs but I would never wear this, it looks very old fashioned. Something my grandad might wear. Nice review though, thanks.
mark thats what makes it cool, "modern" watches looks dumb
Yeah its like every oldman's watch. But i dont mind wearing it casually with a tshirt though.
Its a classic like a Porsche 911
I don't like gold and or two-tone watches. And also on this watch i dislike the bezel.
36 best one
A K Too small compared to modern watches!
39mm would have been sweet.
Bogart1980 It is actually only 39mm!
Kinda boring with the lume indices, but super awesome with the diamonds.
Either a Cartier and the 2021 Moonwatch: or this one haha
One day you will be mine, oh yes one day you will be mine
