Hello all , new member
Here is my Rolex date of 1973 with a black dial.
This watch was inherited from my late father It has now been on my wrist for the last 24 years. Regularly serviced and occasionally enjoys a swim in the Mediterranean Sea. Never misses a beat , and of course being owned by my father before, it is a treasure to me. Does this watch fall in the vintage watch category ? Thank you all |

Yes, vintage indeed! Welcome to the forum. We have a saying here "every watch has a story" and it sounds like that rings true with your watch. Great to see you wear it daily, :)
