Hey guys! Been in the market for a gen DJ 41 rhodium. I was leaning towards preowned which cheapest I found was around
$9500 after taxes. So I scoped the m2m section and to my luck I found this.

It’s an ARF DJ 41 rhodium with a gen dial, hands, datewheel and crystal. So pretty much all the essential parts.

The case and bracelet was also modded in which it was shaped, polished, and the SELs appear near perfect. Bracelet feels gen like. I’m
Really impressed.

My next move is the eventually install an ETA 2824-2 however the current a2824 was recently serviced so I’ll wait on that. I also found a gen 18k white gold fluted bezel for $1000, but this ARF bezel is simply amazing, so not sure if I want to spend on that. I also found a gen oyster bracelet but I’m hesitant as this ARF modded bracelet is great already given its past workmanship.

What do you guys think?

Great piece mate , congrats on your purchase !! A gen bracelet will cost you towards 1500 € think i've seen one for 2500€ ..... thats a heavy price and not worth it, Arf bracelet is suberb ! The bezel is also heavy in price and i think nobody will notice it without gen side by side !

Enjoy it and wear it well :)

+1. Save the money. While the gen bracelet is amazing g, it is not 10 times better than ARF to justify the price. Spend the 1k in WG gen bezel, that will be a worthy investment. Enjoy in good health!!

Yeah I agree... I seen a bracelet for sale on m2m for $1000 but didn’t buy it. I’ll just enjoy as is for now.
