You can see the new datewheel font on the newly added ARF Submariner on puretime. Not sure what to think tbh... could be better, but is a big improvement from what it was

Do you mean on the bluesy? It does look much better. Question is will they continue to use the bulky ones on the rest of their models, or will that date wheel be swapped out across the board.

I honestly now think that DJF is better. You know they have a SH 3135 in some now, the diamond jubilee dial to me is almost a super rep, sh3135 datewheel is amazing, and just some printing flaws like thickness and font on the diamond jubilee dial you can just pass it off as aftermarket of called out . I'm all for team DJF lol

Apologies for reviving such an old thread but I've just received a DJF V2 36mm Datejust - Silver Dial, Batons, Fluted Bezel.
t's only available on an Oyster (I would've preferred the Jubilee by far) but I've put it on a tan leather croc strap...
I must say that I'm absolutely blown away by it. By far my favourite piece in my (approaching vast) collection.
I will post images when I get a chance...

I'd love to see some shots on the oyster bracelet! How is the SEL? Silver dial looks really great IMO

I think I'm gonna buy this thing as soon as my Tudor GMT sells. Would also like to see it on the bracelet HSN If you have the time. Would be much appreciated!
