Yep, 1973 was a good year for me as it was the year I was hatched.

Nice piece. Gotta love a manly steel Datejust. In many ways I miss how Rolex made these Datejusts. They are beautiful, while still being practical and useful. They had lume and you could actually see the hour markers clearly and they were blingy and beautiful. IMO in this respect they were in some ways more beautiful than the newer models, while still retaining lume. Also spotting the luminous markers on a new white Datejust 116200 can arguably be a little trying at times and many of the Roman dials, while very beautiful, are lumless.

(The new OP 39mm was IMO almost a return to vintage theme in this way, the baton markers are excellent and the watch has lume. However, I personally feel they ruined it by using coloured pips on the dial).
