Icon7 At a Funeral

Good Evening Guys,

I finally got to wear my late grandfather's 1940's Swiss Lanco Automatic. There were a couple nice watches there. I saw a 18K DateJust on a Jubilee. I should of approached the man and talked about the DJ. Snapped a quick photo of it on, with my suit. Check it out!

That's a real nice one! It'd be a sharp dress watch on a brown croc or lizard strap!

I love the fact that it's your Grandad's watch. That makes it very special.
