childishthing 1 Posted May 17, 2017 and when I'm feeling pretty. Rich, it's always a treat seeing your watches. 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. Here is my gen DJ that I picked up in Dubai about 2 years ago just before my wedding. The pics are from my actual wedding that's why they are all fancy...lol Nice photos!

childishthing 1 Posted May 18, 2017 My wife stole everyone of those DJs from me. Oh buddy, sorry mate. You should branch into doing your own vintage DJ builds. I like your vintage Subs a lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slink73 6 Posted May 19, 2017 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 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... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gorgeous, a SS DJ is next on my list (except it will be a 116234) I have DJ from StoneP on the way, but it's still a ways out. Who else wears a Datejust (real or rep)?

The gen watches on here are fabulous and they retain their value too... 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
childishthing 1 Posted May 20, 2017 Does this count ? I'm at a loss, I'm not even sure what I'm seeing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RussP 22,202 Posted May 20, 2017 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

childishthing 1 Posted May 22, 2017 Gorgeous, I love that dial. Did you put that together yourself? Above Gen SS DJ 36mm. Below Rep TT DJ2 I quite like the newer 36mm DJ with smooth bezels. Looks very modern and classy to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
