New to me...
So, this is a 1601 I picked up. Today is my first day wearing it - it had a service just before I got it.

I have another 1601 with a white dial, but when I was offered this champagne/linen dial I couldn't help it. I didn't have anything with the champagne/gold dial - so I thought it was kinda cool!

I don't know much about the linen dials - anyone got anything to teach me on these?

My first Rolex. Passed down from my dad. This configuration always holds a special place in my heart.

Congratulations!
