I love a vintage datejust. I have a linen dial myself, so classic.

Always loved Datejusts and your blue dialed tt is in great shape as those blue dials have a tendency to flake on the edges and near the markers.

Thank you. Yea this one was not worn very much by the previous collector. I also wear it on rotation so the mosaic dial is pretty clean. The bezel has turned rosey at this point

The typical damage is not necessarily due to wear IMO. The degradation often seems to spread from the lume plots, suggesting a chemical interaction.
