    Sniped a Datejust today!

    Won this 1971 Datejust 1603 in the waning seconds of an auction. Snatched it away from two other snipers. But I just HAD to have it! The rolled steel
    Jubilee bracelet sealed the deal. :wink:

    Very nice indeed. A lot of people don't like rolled steel (otherwise known as folded links). They prefer the solid steel links. What they don't know is that the rolled steel bracelets are extremely comfortable to wear and just as strong as solid links. I like them, and I love this watch, well done

    Really like that black dial, and the bezel is cool too.

    Now that is a nice watch!

    Don't mean to be rude but how much is one like that likely to set me back?

    Nice one Tom.

    I prefer the Jubilee's on the DJ's.
    Cheers,

    A classic.

    I`ve got a similar one with white gold fluted bezel/black dial/Jubilee bracelet. I keep thinking of selling it but it's just too bloody nice.
