Hello everyone!

I'm a new member at TRF! I've just purchased my first Rolex, the Daytona SS yesterday and I am still very excited about the watch (even though I have been doing research on them for the past year). It's so shiny...

I was having a hard time deciding between the Submariner and the Daytona and thanks to some of the members on the forum, I picked the latter.

This forum rocks.

Thanks guys.

Now I have a question that some of you might be able to answer. My father gave me this Datejust a while ago but lost all the documentations. Can anyone please tell me the model # and what year (approx.) this watch is built? I think this watch is at least 25 years old but I might be wrong. Thank you.
