Two months after my first Rolex, I bought another one! 1979 DJ36 16030 silver/jubilee

Got the call for a Sub Date 126610 LN mid-February and I love it.

I've been looking on and off for a nice vintage DJ36 to go along with it, and I wanted a silver dial. I found a beautiful example at tropicalwatch.com and Jacek was very helpful with pics and info so I went for it.

I should have it in a few days.

Some pics he sent for now. I'm very excited to pair this up with the black Sub Date :)

A real classic. I used to own one but I sold it. Found the size a bit too small. But it is a great classic watch.

Super DJ. Now you're in the rabbit hole.

It's very deep, but it does end eventually.
