I bought my fiancé a mint green DateJust, smooth bezel, oyster bracelet for our engagement gift. He loves it. I was considering the jubilee bracelet but that’s a bit too flashy for daily wear for his work situation so I opted for the oyster. It’s a beautiful dial color, very unique. I think the jubilee works better with like rose gold. For example the chocolate dial, fluted rose gold bezel and the jubilee. That whole watch is flashy, so why not go with a sparkly jubilee bracelet but I think jubilee in stainless and a smooth bezel is a bit of an odd combination, either go 100% flashy or go 100% discreet.
Have this exact watch. I go goo-goo for jubilee's. Thought I wanted it with fluted bezel, but after looking at a couple colorway dials with smooth bezel the mint green and slate color dials look amazing and sporty/dress with smooth bezel. Everyone has their opinions, I have a 36 vintage day date with fluted jubilee, love it. This watch is a great daily go anywhere stunner without the fluted. Very clean, classy and still a stunner!
why were they saying this color is only available with the fluted bezel? did I hear that wrong? Did they mean at their shop? Because you can get this dial with the fluted bezel.
Nice combo! The Tissot PRX 80 with the black dial is sleek, and the mint green Datejust 41 sounds like an amazing addition! That jubilee bracelet will look fantastic with it.
Congrats on the new addition! The Oyster Smooth 41 is a fantastic choice-elegant and versatile, with a timeless design. Getting a brand new one from your AD must have been exciting! How’s it feeling on the wrist?
I like the DJ with the blue dial best. I like Jubilee bracelet with fluted bezel and Oyster with smooth bezel.And nothing wrong with black dial and white either. And I always liked the black/white combo dial. And the gold/ steel combo is super striking and with a blue dial ----wow.
Great to see the "1" in the date window of the Datejust as today is my birthday! Yesterday was June 31st for many of us. Maybe it's just my monitor, but the dial tends more toward the blue side than mint green. Perhaps it has more green in person. I tend to favor Jubilee and President bracelets for the dressier watches and the Oyster for sports models, like the one I'm wearing today, my GMT II with the Coke bezel. At first glance I thought Emily's watch had a champagne dial or even a Stella dial. That President bracelet is the bomb.
@@alexsystems2001 , I was referring to those of us who own watches without perpetual calendars who have to adjust the date when a month has less than 31 days. Instead of waiting until the 1st to change the date, many of us set it to the 31st ahead of time so the date changes over to the 1st at midnight. Years ago my son was asked at work what the date was. He looked at his watch and said "June 31st." His coworker said, "There's only 30 days in June," at which point my son said, "Oh, crap! Today's my dad's birthday." 😆
Happiest of birthdays to you! Thanks for sharing in the fun by joining us for this week's unboxing. You're not alone in favoring the Jubilee and President bracelets for dressier watches, while enjoying the Oyster bracelet on sporty models. Love the wrist check as well. Take care!
I love the mine DJ. Fluted on Jubilee is my preference. I'm trying to sell myself on the DJ but I think I'm going to hold off and go with the Skydweller. A Rolex dress watch video would be cool. DJ, Skydweller, 1908, Celini, vintage, etc. Thanks for another great video!
Love that you're a fan of the fluted and jubilee combination. The Sky-Dweller is a great choice. Thanks for the request for a dress watch video. We'd be happy to get one in the queue!
Purchased a DJ41 126300-0019 May this year. This model is configured with an Oyster bracelet, prompting also to buy a Jubilee bracelet, now replacing the Oyster. So, I settle with the option of swapping when I feel like. Niiiice video…;o)
Fingers crossed for you! Waiting for that call can be nerve-wracking, but it’ll be worth it when you finally get the news. Here’s hoping it’s sooner rather than later! 🤞🤩
Fan of Datejust watches. However, I agree with her that the bezel needs to be fluted. Also, the Jubilee bracelet cries out to be a hidden clasp; not the cheesy stamped sheet metal. Both my wife's jubilee Datejust and my son's jubilee Datejust have the hidden clasp as does my day-date.
Awesome to hear the Rolex Datejust is on the top of your list! Nothing better than a hidden crown clasp on the Jubilee bracelet option. Thanks for watching and sharing your perspective with us!
Have this model....the oyster bracelet modernizes this one...goes better with smooth bezel 100%. If you went fluted, yes the jubilee all the way...but if you want a more modern look, oyster.
I get what you mean! The Jubilee with a smooth bezel does have a different vibe, but it still has that classic Rolex charm. It’s great to hear you still think it’s a fantastic piece!
@@bobswatches You could tell than main guy char in the video didn''t like this combo much but he still said he would go for it :) . I have the oyster with smooth 41. But if the AD called me for this combo i will still get it even i prefer oyster with smooth.

"Goo-goo for Jubilee" 🙌 Awesome to hear you're team Smooth Bezel on this exact configuration. It's truly a fantastic choice!
The mint green Rolex Datejust 41 is a dream! 💚
Easy to enjoy, that's for sure!

Wearing Tissot PRX 80 black dial, just got call from AD to pick up mint green datejust 41 w jubilee bracelet
Nice combo! The Tissot PRX 80 with the black dial is sleek, and the mint green Datejust 41 sounds like an amazing addition! That jubilee bracelet will look fantastic with it.
Great review. This Mint Green Datejust is just pure class. Sick AF.
Thanks for the feedback! Truly a lovely watch.
Appreciate this review. Finally one that's real easy and practical to follow. Thank you.
Your comment means a lot to us! Thank you for sharing.
Just got one this weekend. Managed to get a brand new one from my AD. Oyster smooth 41.

Congrats on the recent purchase! Even better to hear you have both bracelet options to swap at your convenience. Thanks for watching!
wearing my 126622 Slate aka the 'white walker' Rolex. Looks fantastic and wears super comfortable.
The Slate is fantastic! You're not kidding about the comfortability.
Currently wearing this - 126300 3/24 Warranty Card. Mint Green of course 😊
How awesome! So +1 for team Jubilee + Fluted bezel
This is the exact dial colour and combination I am waiting for, keeping fingers crossed for the ‘call’ 🤞
I am in the same boat except fluted bezel. Have been waiting 11 months and counting. Good luck!
Fingers crossed for you! Waiting for that call can be nerve-wracking, but it’ll be worth it when you finally get the news. Here’s hoping it’s sooner rather than later! 🤞🤩
Hang in there! Waiting that long can be tough, but once you get that fluted bezel watch, it’ll be all worth it. Here’s hoping you get the call soon.

Rocking my 1988 Rolex 17000 black dial. Just got it back from RSC.
What an awesome wrist check! Is yours OysterQuartz?
@@bobswatches yes. My favorite Rolex. I have 2 more with RSC now. Can’t wait to get them back.
jubilee with smooth is a bit off, still great R though :)
