Wow, that must be really old! $1,000 for a 18k DD, and 36mm as a "large" watch.

Also, from my understanding, wasn't it LBJ's use of that model that earned it the nickname "President"? If so, that ad must predate LBJ, as there's no use of that term.

That's ok, that's what it's there for.

But what I meant was I KNEW what it was by the title before it opened up.
