Investment scorecard

Momentum51Measured price direction: the median recorded sale of the last 4 months against the median of 8 to 12 months ago. 50 means flat; small samples are pulled toward 50.

Liquidity100How easily it sells: recorded sales in the last 12 months (300 or more scores 100) and eBay's 90-day sell-through rate.

Scarcity60Demand against supply. For modern pieces, how far the market sits above or below current retail, plus a lift if production has ended. For vintage, how rarely one comes up for sale.

Value entry41Where the latest quarter's median sale sits inside its own 3-year range. Buying near the low scores high; buying at the high scores low.

Condition safety81How safe a typical example is: the age of the design, plus how tightly sale prices cluster (a wide spread means condition and originality swing the price).

The story

The all-steel DJ41: same watch as the 126334 minus the white gold fluting, a couple thousand cheaper.

Blue dial on Jubilee is the configuration the market keeps voting for.

The smooth-bezel, Oyster-bracelet DJ41 is the Datejust stripped to its essence, and the blue dial version is a common forum recommendation for a first serious watch.

It is the least expensive 41mm Datejust, trading at or slightly above retail pre-owned. Liquidity is excellent, downside is shallow, upside is modest: the index fund of Rolexes.

Our verdict: Best pure value in the modern Datejust line. Modest premium, maximum wearability.
