Vintage date just

Just stuck my toe into the vintage Rolex market with a 50yr old date just that needs some TLC,should be with me tomorrow then off to RSC next week to to refurbished and servised.I'll post some before and after pictures once I have had all the work done. I've bought the watch blind with a few known faults so lets hope its not too serious to fix it.Not had a dress watch since my very first Rolex "air king" many many years ago. My wifes going to go nuts.

I hear you, chief.

I haven't told the old lady about my latest DateJust, either.

Congrats on the purchase. What's the model and dial color?
