Rolex Black and Blue
Just picked up a pair of lovely vintage Datejusts. A wonderful sunburst blue dial (which takes on different shades of blue in differing light) and a matt black dial. Not the cheapest Datejusts that I have purchased, but in my experience, black and blue dial vintage Datejusts are pretty hard to find, especially ones in perfectly intact original condition. The scarcity factor is multiplied somewhat when looking for a smooth bezel 1600 variant. Anyway, I thought I would share a few pictures of a pair of timeless classics, for the vintage cognoscenti amongst us.

Love the blue John. Always kick myself for not buying one that was offered to me about 6 years ago now...

Nice
Lovely pierces especially the blue
-
They are 2 good looking DJ's.

I love the blue date just! Good catch!
One day I'll find a sunburst blue to add to the stable.
-
Just to be awkward lol ......... I really like the black dial version. I could quite happily wear that :-)
Either way, that's a great pair of watches.

Black covers every occasion but the blue is a bit more casual imo - something for the weekend sir!. But if they were in my watchbox they would always bring a smile to my face. Class will out.
-
Thank you for the comments everybody & to 'mrushton'...they each do just that, bring a smile to my face, each time I put one on. For me, that is what this lark is all about.
