  • No matter how many rolexes I see, the black stick dial, fluted bezel, jubilee bracelet will always be my favorite one. It's such a classy, time-less/modern, clean watch.

  • My fave datejust is the blue fluted motif, so that hurt.

  • I've got the DJ36 blue fluted-motif (fluted bezel, jubilee bracelet) and have to say the fluted-motif motifs are the best DJ dials of the past few years. Sad to see them discontinue them! Also a big fan of the tapestry and linen dials back from the 80s, especially that yellow gold two tone! And the white roman is clean and killer too.

  • Blue Motif on a Jubilee in E??? 😂 Sorry but that's really a let down on this list because that's an A for certain. Arguably the nicest after / with the Wimbledon and still one of the most sought after (especially after being discontinued)

  • A good buddy of mine has a fluted dial, fluted bezel on jubilee and it’s just stunning! That should be an A! Also, I’m a big fan of the Turn-O-Graph, that would be an A in my book too!

  • He uses the hottest dial for the click bait pic for the video **blue fluted motif dial** ADs had the most requests for that dial in the datejust line. Blue and green fluted Motif dials were super hard to get. "E" was on purpose because he knows he will get LOTS of comments, which the youtube algorithm loves.

  • Turn-o-graph should be higher, because it's the closest a timing bezel can get to a dress watch. I know that dressy people will judge it crude and sporty people will judge it blingy, I don't care. C or B, depending on reference.
