1st Vintage in the stable

The mail just arrived with my first vintage. 1969 DJ with original box, punched papers and original receipt.I borrowed the pics from the for sale listing.
I'm really digging this one. Once my camera is charged I will shoot some new pics

That watch is great looking. I love the look of the watch on that brown leather band. It's a relatively easy way to personalize the look of your new watch. Comes with COSC papers...nice score.

Great piece. Congrats! The old DJs are beautiful and probably the best bang-for-your-buck vintage Rolexes out there. They are relatively cheap and look like a million bucks!

Like I said before I waited 2 weeks between purchases, so it took me a month to get to 3.
