I purchased my first 'real' watch back in 1974 it is a Rolex DateJust in gold and stainless. I still own that watch but I really got the watch bug about ten years ago .Fun Hobby
Update..We discovered that my movers decided they needed my 1978 Date/just ..Sadly it was a couple of months before we discovered it. I sold most of my Rolex pieces but my AD said she would get me another Date/just if i wanted to replace it..So..instead of it being 2400usd like last time now it is 14000usd...But heck I ordered it anyway. Ill post when it shows up..
