Dial color, silver or white, maybe blue if you need color. Totally different and a very clean look. It is all about having fun and enjoying yourself and that would be fun to me. Let us know what you decide.

Yes, definitely keeping the TT. I own the 16700 and Sub-C so there are sporty models in the collection. The TT DJ is the most iconic and recognizable piece. My mom's 69173 was the reason why I bought the 16233 in the first place.

I'm in a similar situation as you but kind of in reverse.

I have a 16220 DJ that was my first rolex 27 years ago, I'll never get rid of it. It was a 30th bday present from my wife, I was wearing it when my son was born etc.

I've had the itch for a modern datejust, would go rose gold / steel, with either a white or slate/rhodium dial.

But I have been having 2 datejusts, even though neo vintage vs modern, all steel vs TT.

What are everyones thoughts? OK to have 2 DJ's?

Good decision on keeping your tt dj. They are so comfortable and classic. When I slip mine on it feels like putting on an old broken in pair of blue jeans.

Of course it’s OK to have 2 Datejusts. Look at how many members have multiple GMTs. I have a Wimbledon TT on oyster with fluted bezel and mint green on Jubilee with fluted bezel. Buy what you want!
