Swapping back and forth all of the time is getting to be a monotonous. I would like to sell one and keep the other. In the beginning I was very partial to the explorer but sometimes I can’t imagine not having the date function. Plus the DJ does sit a larger on the wrist and that is also nice. Tough choice here to just walk away with one…So help me decide because I am really at an impasse with this..
Doesn’t the explorer have a better movement and clasp?
And a better case. The Explorer still highlights those lovely case contours by brushing the top of the lugs and only polishing the sides. Current DJ stopped doing that in lieu of the simpler choice to just polish the whole thing like some kind of 90s Breitling Bentley.
Never understood that choice by Rolex. Adds bling, subtracts sophistication/refinement
It also has the better wearing bracelet.
Movement is basically the same, the Explorer is a cal 3230 movement with no date, while the DJ is a cal 3235 movement with date. Performance wise it's the same.
You're missing that the explorer is missing the date.
