Rolex Datejust "126234" Mint Green Dial! Review and Ownership! 

I really appreciate the comment!

I agree!! I put my my name in list for this in November 2023.. we'll be my first Rolex whenever it comes...41

Many thanks!

I agree with you ... especially that it goes well with a short skirt

Hope so!

Same! @@WatchesAdmires

Nice!!

I was first wanting the wimbledon on jubilee and fluted too. But the mint green was just too beautiful so I went with that

Thanks a lot!

I appreciate the comment! Thank you!

I agree too! Great review and watch! Always thought I only wanted a sub, gmt or daytona but this is great too!

The fact the it glitters in the light is actually what makes me hate the jubilee. A true gentleman doesn’t bling.

@@AjejeB the glitter and dance I’m referring to is the fluted bezel not the jubilee bracelet. To each their own.

@@dennisthespeedmenace7530 sorry, I misread your comment. Indeed the fluted bazel really has a nice shine, but precisely bcs is so shiny I prefer to balance it with a plainer oyster bracelet, rather than doubling down on the shine with a blingy jubilee. It looks a bit too much to me, but I appreciate it’s the original datejust combo. Otherwise jubilee bracelet plus plain bazel can be an interesting option too, especially with a nice colour dial. It is so iconic in the original combo but I think as a daily wearer is too much.

@@AjejeB at first I did wear it a lot with the excitement of my new watch. Now I’m back to Bb58 gilt as my daily.

Thank you for the comment!

I've been waiting 5 months now, I also am going mint 41, will be my first Rolex and I can't wait for "the call"

Appreciate the comment! Hope you get them!

@@WatchesAdmires thanks

3months is lucky. Congrats

@@kevindo3365 thanks, I’m really happy about it. Still waiting on a GMT and Sub though. The green Sub since it’s release. We shall see how lucky I am there.

Root beer, you Americans are so dumb 😂

Nice!

I’m on the list for that exact configuration. Soon I’ll get it!

I've been waiting 5 months

@lifeisgreat1718 did you get yours?

Congrats man, I got the DJ41 Wimbledon dial with 2 tone Rolesor on Oyster bracelet and it pops man, love it! First ever Rolex!

Appreciate the comment and yeah totally go for the mint green! Glad the review helped :)

Yeah a bigger build should definitely go for the 41mm. I'm a 6.5in wrist at 5'7 and 160lbs so the 36mm goes better with my build

Hope you get that GMT! Love my rootbeer

Much appreciated!

I'm in the same boat.... 5 months so far

@@jasonmagruder7008 i actually went to a different AD and on the same day they were able to allocate this for me! So much for a ‘waitlist’. Been enjoying my DJ for a little over a month now 😀

Thank you! Yeah go for it!

This post must have been good karma I got the call today I’m picking up exact same watch tomorrow 41mm. Can’t believe it 😁

I did, the GMT Rootbeer

I haven't seen a more static color datejust in the flesh so I wouldn't be able to compare. But my friend has a black dial and loves it

The lighting in my living room lol

Absolutely 💯

It's certainly a noticeable difference in the size but 36mm-40mm is my sweet spot. I personally don't go larger than that

Love the simplicity and all-around on an explorer too!

Couldn't agree more. I have the same watches! The Explorer just feels perfect and can go anywhere with anything. The DJ mint green I save for matching or work attire.

You are not wrong. When I acquired my Datejust I gave my Panerai to my partner. On my dressing table I have a green catheter container but he has a beautiful simply finished pear wood box finished inside with black felt

6.58in wrist!

It just has the small extension, not the glidelock. The glidelock are on the diver models such as the Submariner

@@WatchesAdmires Don’t you have different positions inside the clasp that you can move as well using a spring bar tool? Need to drop by the boutique and double-check but figured this was faster 😊👍.

Yup you can change the positions using the spring bar then you have the extension to get that perfect fit@@Aoelx

I would just let them know you are seriously interested in adding a datejust to your collection and occasionally just remind them. Always be friendly, it'll come

@@WatchesAdmires yeah I tried that for the past 6 months without any results. Probably gonna end up paying 3k extra on the grey market.

I’m sure you will!

What would be a good price range for this particular Rolex? Someone asked me for 14.5 - 15k. I wouldn’t pay anything more than 11k.

Thank you! It was a gift, from the temples for good luck

I did, I let my sales person know a datejust was my next interest

Gamsa! I’m also Korean 🇰🇷

Same here, 41mm is abit too large for my wrist too. 36-39mm is my sweet spot and 40mm is as high as I’ll go

No chrono

My only concern is the lack of a rotating bezel. My only watch is an Omega Seamaster Professional, and I use the rotating bezel multiple times a day. It’s honestly a very useful and arguably underrated feature.

I agree, it’s timeless. It will fit whether you are young or old.

The retail price is $8950

36 mm , I agree with you ... especially that it goes well with a short skirt

36mm such a classic size! 6.5in wrist

Aha no not yet!

also looks a little feminine

To each their own! Personally I love the jubilee, so comfortable

Disagree it’s the perfect configuration. There is no point to get a date just if you don’t get the Jubilee, that’s the point to get this watch. If you want oyster get a submariner
