SILVER THUNDER BIRD

The "Thunderbird," so nicknamed for being a hybrid of a sports model and a dress model, was born by adding a rotating bezel to the Datejust.

It's a model I personally love.

Despite its 36mm size, the rotating bezel adds a powerful and substantial presence to the watch.

Although silver dials are prone to damage, this one is in good condition with no noticeable flaws.

The crystal has been replaced with a domed type without a cyclops lens, giving it a clean look.

When it was released, this Thunderbird model was unpopular, making it surprisingly rare to find when you look for it.
