Datejust - Classic, Elegent, Understated
People often forget the simple beauty of the Datejust - here's a quick and dirty shot of mine - 116200 on Oyster with a black arabic dial



I'd love to see some more pictures of this Rolex workhorse

Cheers

Chris

Mark,

That is a fantastic looking watch. I've been waiting for someone to post a picture just like that.

It says everything about Rolex to me.

Mark-O...sigh...that's beautiful. Something about blue dial and a 'suggestion' of gold looks so supra-classy to me.

Really nice my friend,
Mark

Thanks, I love the engine turned bezel on it, the patina is perfectly aged.
