Vintage Rolexes
I recently bought a 1960 Oyster Perpetual Datejust and I love it. I did a lot of research before deciding what to buy. I wanted something classic and elegant, but not fussy. A vintage Rolex doesn’t look too over-the-top new money, like a Jacob the Jeweler blinged-out timepiece. Its a gentleman’s watch.

I never thought I’d like a Rolex… with them looking all big clunky and gold, but having seen some vintage ones… promising myself one for my 40th birthday. Should give me enough time to save up.

I like them too. No disrespect intended but some constructive criticism as no one else will give it to you after you show them your purchase. That watch is one of the least desirable rolex watches available. The band, numerals and gold highlighting is seriously distasteful, I do understand you may love it to death. But come on it’s one of the foulest rolex watches I have seen. Sell it and upgrade! Have you checked out the milgauss?

How much did you buy it for?
