My First Rolex - 16013 Oyster Perpetual Datejust
Just bought my first rolex, 961xxxx , circa 1986. Has a sapphire crystal in it, I think everything else is original. I'm happy with it and I think it looks great. I'm not a good photographer, taken from a Samsung Galaxy phone.

 I think a sapphire crystal may in fact be correct for that watch
