My 2 cents. I have the Hulk and Tudor also. I also have a stainless DJ. I love it, little smaller but timeless. Many think it is too small, I think they are nuts. The 36mm DJ is an iconic Rolex. Can't miss. Oh yeah, just remembered, they are all shown in my photo!

BLNR sounds nice as do the larger DJs. There are a lot of choice in the DJs. Some are really really nice. How about looking for a TOG?

Sell the Casios, Seikos and TH watch, and then get the BLNR.

If you would like another sports watch, go with the BLNR (GMT). If you would like something that could be dressed up a bit more, go with a DJII. The DJII might be a nice addition since you have a diver and chrono already. Either way, you can't go wrong. Good luck and welcome to TRF!

You have 2 sports watches, you need a dress(y) one. DJ or maybe DJII (I like it the bigger size more because it can look sporty, too).
Good luck. |

Datejust if you need a dressier option, otherwise the black/blue GMT is a sweet watch!

I would go with a GMT, but a DJ would also be a nice addition since it would be a little dressier.

No wrong answer here but I'd go with a DJ to round out your collection.

thanks guys for the warm welcome :D
That's why i am rather conflicted... with BLNR , i really like the second time zone. DJ and DJ2 has so many differnet watches which makes choosing it confusing ahhaha too many choices. what are the classics? Daytona i kind of like the black face but i definitey love the one with everose gold (have to wait for another day) What DJ / DJ2 combination is in demand / popular since they are so many combinations? |

I stilll have not decided what to get. At the moment my local AD has a black daytona! I am on waiting list for the blnr. Should i get the daytona in black stainless? It is a very rare piece to come after 0_0 The daytona is 60% more than the blnr (almost). i could almost buy a blnr plus a datejust for the price of the daytona. what do you guys think? |
