Hi all,

I've done a bit of searching and I'm in two minds about two watches.

First being this;

https://puretime.io/datejust-41-126...wn-dial-on-ss-rg-jubilee-bracelet-a3235.html#

Second being this;

https://puretime.io/datejust-41-126...steel-gray-dial-on-oyster-bracelet-a2824.html

(although I would really like the jubilee, I dont think its available from ARF yet?)

I know they're both different, but is the two toned version really that bad? I can't find hardly any reviews on it on here, and yes, I have looked.

As always, thanks for any advice!

Dave

I have the two tone, the only thing is the brown is a probably lighter shade than the original. The feel of the watch is very good. Probably will need to change the crystal soon. Anyone know the code for the crystal?

I'm almost certain that you can get the ARF 2824 with jubilee, I've seen already pictures from the grey with jubilee :) ..ask your TD

That’s interesting- I asked my TD but he said not available yet. Do you know which TD you saw this at? Thanks

Legit question because it seems like the 41 is gaining more and more popularity.. what made you decide to go for the 41? big wrists or you just like bigger watches in general?

I'm a big guy- 6ft 2, and pretty broad, so i find that size hits the sweet spot. To be honest as I've gotten older I have steered towards small-mid size watches, coming from oversized pieces, so anything in the range of around 39-41 is perfect.

I saw it at the ad. So I was just hoping the td have it alrdy . But I just checked with Lucy and she said no one has it yet. The best will be the ARF steel blue dial on oyster
bracelet . Or the dark grey one . So I'll prob be getting either one . Leaning towards the blue one tho.

Ah cool! That makes sense yeah :) Same happened to me tbh, used to love the big panerai, APs or larger rolex models but nowadays everything over 41mm feels sooo big :D

Sorry, not to dis-believe you, but can anyone else confirm this?
