Nice pics! I'm not a fan of bi-coloured watches, though. Either steel or gold.

My Latest Arrived Today>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Greetings to my friends on the German Rolex Forum.
My latest acquisition arrived today - a 1984 Datejust.
My wife has the ladies version of this watch, which I got for her as a wedding gift, so she had been telling me to get the men's version so we'd match. So, with my birthday coming 'round this week, it gave me a good excuse to get another Rolex.
I'm really surprised at how much I like this watch...I didn't think I would because of the size, but now I realize that I needed a dress watch.
Here's a shot of the watch in the vintage style box:
Here's a close up of the watch...as you can see, it's in immaculate shape...some bracelet stretch to be sure, but that's to be expected:
Finally, here's a couple of shots showing how good this watch looks on my wrist with a suit.

Hallo,
Congratulations for this very nice Watch! She looks very nice, real stunning.
I Love Bi-Colour Watches very much ! I own 2 bi- coloured DJ´s, one 1601 from 1969 with a Jubilee-Strap and one 6605 from 1956 worn with leather strap.
You have made a very good choice.

I really like the hands on the 1956 model. Is the dial on the newer one the slate grey color? Brown maybe? It's amazing how the 1969 model looks the same as my 1984 model...which looks the same as the 2003 model my boss has.John B. Holbrook, II

a Leather Strap looks very nice on a Vintage-Dj. believe me ! Just try it, I think you would like it very much !
The Colour of the Dial of my 1601 from 1969 is hard to describe, but i Try it.
It is golden , but a deeper gold then shown on my 6605 DJ. It´s going into a Bronce Tone. I think the best Discription is Gold-Bronce, if you know what I mean. But it is not dark-Brown !
I love this Dial also very much and I am very proud of it. The watch is in a very good Condition, looks like a new One. The original folded Jubilee has onnly a little stretch and looks also very good.
The Hands of the 6605 are very beautifull in my opinion. I love those both watches very, very much !
