I have DJ from StoneP on the way, but it's still a ways out.

 

Who else wears a Datejust (real or rep)? Please share :D

I really need a Datejust from StoneP but haven´t come across one for sale in the EU for months. So I bought something else in 36mm.....

I really love those Bulova day/dates. One of my former co-workers had one in SS and I recall thinking it was very sharp.

Go gen, it's not too expensive and you don't have ridiculous short hands. My work watch:

The StoneP build I'm getting is "gen" enough for me, and about half the price. Thanks for sharing though.

Oh buddy, sorry mate. You should branch into doing your own vintage DJ builds. I like your vintage Subs a lot.

Who else wears a Datejust (real or rep)? Please share :D

 

 

I have seen your build listed on another thread. It sounds like you couldn't make it more gen if you tried (movement aside - and I know that's a biggy) but ball park what does that cost? US$1500 in mods on top of the base watch? or is it more like double that? I have the utmost respect for modders and the franken builds amaze me. I am sure the outcome will be stunning but with some really astute shopping could you not find gens' of these models for comparative prices?

 

The gen watches on here are fabulous and they retain their value too...

Gorgeous, a SS DJ is next on my list (except it will be a 116234)

It's actually only about $1500 total; "super franken" status. Everything is gen including the case & 18k gold bezel apart from the movement and bracelet.

It's a Croton.

 

Looks obviously copied off the DJ.

 

Had it checked over and regulated (after a M2M purchase) and it keeps rock-solid time since.

 

I don't wear it, but the lady friend loves wearing it a lot of the time.

Gorgeous, I love that dial. Did you put that together yourself?

I quite like the newer 36mm DJ with smooth bezels. Looks very modern and classy to me.
