- Is this a good first vintage Rolex?
- Yes, if you want the classic Datejust look without modern-watch pricing. Check service history and case condition before buying, since vintage watches can need work soon after purchase.
- How does it differ from a modern Datejust?
- It is older, smaller in feel and less water-sealed, and it comes on a leather strap rather than a bracelet. The design language is the same, but modern versions have updated movements and cases.
- Is the leather strap original?
- No. The two-tone Datejust was sold on a steel-and-gold bracelet; this example has been fitted with a brown leather strap, which makes it more casual.
- Is it water-resistant?
- It is a vintage watch, so do not treat it like a modern diver. Avoid swimming and have the seals checked by a watchmaker.
- What is in the box?
- The watch is presented on a brown leather strap. No box or papers are mentioned, so ask the seller what accompanies it.
- Can I put a bracelet on it?
- Yes, a compatible steel-and-gold bracelet can be fitted by a watchmaker, but it will add cost and may not match the original reference exactly.
