My Dad Wearing His Datejust
Hey Everyone!! I’ve posted about my father’s Datejust before and for the longest time I was looking for a throwback picture of my dad wearing the Datejust. I finally found it, I was over at my grandmother’s house and was looking through some old photo albums and literally the first picture I see is my dad holding my brother and I with the Datejust on!! I was so happy and excited!! Makes the watch even more special now!

That's awesome! Beautiful watch!
I notice he's wearing it on his left hand, while you wear it on the right. Just curious, is that a matter of personal preference or are you left-handed? |

Reminds me of the Patek Philippe advertisement: "You never actually own a PP, you merely look after it till the next generation." or something like that.
