As promised, these are the pics of my DateJust 16013
Year 1984

This is my favorite out of my whole collection of Rolex watches.

I know, bad pics .. I took those with my iPhone

cocopeep · 10 December 2010, 06:33 PM

I have basically the same one without the diamonds that is getting serviced. Nice watch you have, it is a comfortable watch, even more than my GMT IIC which is a big heavy watch

Puffy · 10 December 2010, 07:04 PM

good stuff. can't see it's almost in its fourth decade

SkyKing31 · 10 December 2010, 07:04 PM

This was my father watch .. He is gone now, so that makes this watch more special than the 3 different day dates that I own .. I also have a couple Rolex models with oyster bracelets .. The DateJust is the most comfortable as far as feel, and I even wear it to bed.

SkyKing31 · 10 December 2010, 07:06 PM

Puffy, thanks for the compliment .. It was well cared for when my father was alive .. It is still well cared for now that I own it .. As I have stated before, this is my favorite

dddrees · 10 December 2010, 07:19 PM

Nice watch. I think it is grand that you have something like this that you can wear and think of your father with.

SkyKing31 · 10 December 2010, 07:23 PM

My father was my best friend .. This watch makes me feel close to him still .. He was a great man with great taste

vukotab · 10 December 2010, 11:27 PM

I completely understand why this watch is your favorite, it`s one beautiful piece!
Wear it in best of health for years to come!

kcmo · 11 December 2010, 02:00 AM

Such a classic! Look great and I hope you continue enjoying it for many years to come!

slcbbrown · 11 December 2010, 04:56 AM

My favorite Rolex is my father's 50's TT TOG with black face. Looks just about like yours. Beautiful watch.

BTW, you don't have a plane called the Songbird, do you?

Prince · 11 December 2010, 05:00 AM

Can't go wrong with a TT Datejust on a jubilee bracelet. Classic in every way. Congrats!

baxta69 · 11 December 2010, 06:23 AM

DJs rock! Classic timeless styling without all that busy bulky crap of modern ones with all their big lugs and maxi dialsYuk! Lovley watch and a wonderful keepsake. Enjoy!

SkyKing31 · 11 December 2010, 09:08 AM

slcbbrown .. I'm not "that skyking", but I have seen songbird up close and perosnal .. One of the many things my father left behind is a Boeing 737-200 completly redone inside to look like a BBJ .. It's a money pit, but lots of fun

As for everyone else : thanks so much for the nice comments .. I wish all of you a Very Merry Christmas

Great looking watch. I have a 16233 with a diamond dial, never get tired of looking at it.

Akira · 12 December 2010, 06:08 AM

Nice watch, a classic and timeless!

sea-dweller · 12 December 2010, 03:34 PM

Nice photos!

SkyKing31 · 12 December 2010, 04:21 PM

Actually, I should take better photos .. It looks much nicer when you can actually see the details of the watch .. You wouldn't believe that it is a 1984

Gerardus · 12 December 2010, 06:53 PM

Nice!

fishinfool · 16 April 2015, 02:33 AM

Might be a dumb question, but what does BBJ mean? Being an airplane freak, if like to see some pics of your father's 737-200
