At the time of its release, the Datejust was the first mechanical wristwatch to offer a date mechanism that changes automatically. Over seventy years later, the jump date remains a fixture on every Datejust watch. It also remains one of Rolex’s most successful models. For decades, the mens edition kept the same 36mm case size. It didn’t receive the 41mm option until 2009, when the Datejust II hit the market. The Datejust 41 soon followed in 2016 with slightly more refined proportions and a newer movement.

The Datejust II was only produced on the 3-link Oyster bracelet. On the other hand, the Datejust 41 features either the Oyster or the 5-link Jubilee bracelet. Side-by-side, the Datejust 41 more closely resembles the Datejust 36 with a sleeker case. Th
