This year, the iconic Rolex Datejust celebrates its 80th anniversary, making it one of the longest-running luxury watch models in the world. To mark the occasion on The Watch Brief, I wanted to discuss one model that found its way into my collection over a year ago, the Datejust 36. While the Datejust is available in 34mm and 41mm, I can firmly state that the 36mm option is the ideal choice, bridging the gap between classic and modern.
