'71 Datejust incoming...
Just bought this 1971 Datejust today. Has a beautifully refinished dial but otherwise has "very low miles."

Refreshing and very nice! Can't wait to see the wristies when you get it! Being that it is from 1971 wouldn't that classify your DJ as a vintage piece?

For a 40 year old watch, the case (inside and out) looks quite good. Congrats!

Tom that watch look great. I am amazed that watches from this era look so good. It's a credit to the quality of materials and manufacturing skill used to construct these time pieces.
My wife's 1625 that's a few years younger looks like new and she wears it every day. |
