A watch of incredible beauty that you have to be able to assume

4.3

I am rather discreet by nature. When you are passionate about watches, it is not always easy to go unnoticed. I was not destined to buy a Rolex Date-Just. It was the Instagram algorithm that got the better of me. While browsing the many photos of watches on the news feed (in which occasionally slip a few beautiful cars, beautiful women or good black humor jokes), I came across this watch on the wrist of someone wearing a beautiful gray sweater. The combination of colors and the quality of the shot finished me off in less than 5 seconds. I was not aware, but this model with the "Mina Green" dial had only just been announced by Rolex. I went to the store to an AD I know, he told me that the waiting list (and yes, the famous one!!!) was not yet open. I was lucky to be among the first to be registered. I chose it in 41mm. Sorry for the purists, I tried the 36mm, with my 18cm circumference wrist, I can't get used to dials smaller than 37mm. It doesn't suit me, I don't feel good with 36... I don't beat around the bush: I take it with a jubilee bracelet and fluted bezel. Today, the assessment is as follows: this watch is stunningly beautiful! The color of the dial is incredible. It's a change from blue (which is my favorite color and almost everywhere in my collection) and black (very sober). The green brings a nice touch of pep. BUT... It's a disco ball. It's flashy. It's recognizable. It's ostentatious. Sometimes (often), I must admit that I have a hard time assuming it since I prefer discretion. So I don't wear it that often. For example, I hardly dare to wear it in the professional world for "fear" of the distorted opinion that people can form, of the hasty conclusions that are drawn, etc. You could say "you must not care, it's not a subject". Ok... But... Nevertheless, it is a reality... So, for me, it is a perfect watch, emblematic, resolutely sport-chic. But it is the antithesis of austerity and discretion. It is a watch that you must be able to assume to wear because you will bear the weight of its symbol and its unmistakable presence in the eyes of even non-experts...

A dream come true

4.4

Having been a watch enthusiast for over 2 years, I have gradually built up a collection (only composed of manufacture/COSC movements) in stages and by theme (diver, chronograph); gradually increasing my investments. Tag Heuer, Tudor, Breitling... The next step could only be - within my means - the famous brand with the crown. Without being a primary Rolex aficionado, I ended up measuring all the majesty of the brand by dint of researching it and gradually fell in love with the model that I own today. Far from being a confidential model, the "Wimbledon" in my eyes is the most beautiful version of the datejust, combining both elegance and sportiness. This version, purchased in an official store (the first, preferring to bet on financial considerations and customer service on the second hand) has the new Rolex caliber 3235 (RDM 70h), antimagnetic and shock-resistant as well as the Easylink comfort extension. All the latest Rolex innovations within reach of the wrist in short. The black Roman numerals circled in green appear to me as a true marvel whose color variances I never tire of contemplating according to the light projected on the slate-finish dial and sumptuously brushed in a circular manner. A real visual success. The choice of an Oyster configuration and a smooth bezel is motivated by personal aesthetic considerations, preferring the Jubilee on a GMT and not necessarily liking the mixture of metals for a fluted bezel. The watch is comfortable to wear, adaptable to all outfits. I regret however that the oysterlock clasp is a scratch magnet (but what clasp is not really?) and that visibility in the dark is average. Great buying experience. Deposit of 3 wishes in March 2k23 (The Wimbledon, the datejust with a mint green dial and a classic black OP). Waiting period announced as 10 to 12 months. Reminder in June 2K23 to offer me another alternative (DJ green sunray dial). I finally manage to get my first choice after discussion. Payment of a 30% deposit and delivery time announced as 3 to 6 months. 20 days later/early July 2K23, announcement that my watch is available and acquisition in the process. Lucky. My collection is growing in the most beautiful way! Next goal, a Japanese movement! The fact that I know the person who accompanied me throughout the process probably helped me (he was one of my former work-study students at Rolex, me who until very recently taught at the university). Looking forward to discussing this model at the watch event organized by "A la bon'heure du tic-tac" on 10/21/2023 at the Intercontinental Hotel in Lyon!
