Ken this is a fabuous tribute to the classics and you have a wonderful collection. Nice photos!

My oldest was born in 1986... which I wore for 22 years before buying my second Rolex....my METEORITE DAYTONA.
every time I slip on my 16013, it is like getting back together with an old friend...it is still the most comfortable watch I own, which I attribute to the jubilee bracelet.

Cheers!

These ones just do not get enough wrist time so I took them out for a play. Again-pardon the awful shot--one of these days I will make photography a project! Have a great Sunday all!!

Oh that 61s my birth year
