Denver Dick · 31 August 2010, 03:31 AM

My very first Rolex was a new TT DJ with Jubilee bracelet in 1975. I sold that one in around 1979 to buy a new DD Presidents Model. Then, with law school bills climbing, I sold the DD in 1982 and moved to a Seiko. In 1984, when I started my first job as an attorney, I purchased a new SS DJ. Finally, in 1987, I was able to move back to my true love, a new TT DJ 16013 I still have today, this one.
