I have recently discovered my passion for Day Dates.
And the reproduction of the price lists and information.
By Lee took me straight back to my early 20's when I used to read and re-read them.
Blast from the past.

1M thanks to Lee, Darkner, & Styles!

Lee had posted the ‘72 price list before, and using it, the TRF hive-mind could determine that on the Day-Date, Rolex offered both the buckle and the hidden clasp President bracelets together from at least 1972 through 1994. (Link to that thread is here - https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=934537)

If requests are still acceptable, I’d love to see just the DD price lists for any (or all!) years through 2000. The photos are fun, but the price lists could answer a lot of basic questions about what was offered when, for which no public info is out there.

I've got 30 linear feet of old price lists catalogues etc 1953-2015 in a safe/bank vault in the city of London, and a very few 70s 80s 90s at home....so you are looking for 50-99 then, pls confirm ? - BTW years ago I, (tongue-in-cheek, offered Dan a plane ticket to come over and sort them out...they are in NO FLIPPING ORDER... ? I'll have a look at what's at home....

Fascinating images. A few oddities I noticed:

No lug holes on that sub?


Odd shape on the triangle of that small hand?


GMT insert- is that where the fakers got the idea for the “hooked 2”?
