Way back in 2014, we took a larger, 36mm Datejust for a spin link in A Week on the Wrist. Here's what we said then, and it still applies today: "Few collectors and enthusiasts link will immediately jump to talking about the Datejust – and that might be a mistake. One of the more understated members of the Rolex family, the link Datejust has an amazing combination of real history, versatile style, and quality watchmaking that should get everyone from the casual watch wearer to the die-hard enthusiast excited."

If I could assign these watches with one overriding quality I would say they are robust you can definitely wear them while doing link pretty much any activity without ever having to be fussy about link it. But link these watches are definitely going to feel bulky and cumbersome for those of us with more slender wrists. And I do wonder at 1850 for a quartz movement does one maybe deserve a little more bang for their entry-level buck
