Jumbo Day Date, Oyster Prince Day Date? I don't know what they're usually called but ref is 7017/0 - great size (38mm) and I love the layout - yes unfortunately I think they messed up the new ones they just always looked off to me.
I'm sure good deals on the newer ones can be had, but (relatively speaking) the OG's seem decent value when you compare a similar vintage (mine is '69) Sub for example, or ofc any Rolex day/date offerings. Only downside is that it's not quickset so takes ages to set the date/day.

hang_on_voltaire's lovely prince(?) day-date got me looking at Tudor day-dates again.
What are peoples' thoughts on the Glamour Date & Day? Aside from the shit name and not being as charming as the OG?
They seem like fairly good deals second hand. Can't help but feel they fucked the upper logo layout as the bottom nicely mirrors the curved day text, but somehow they fuck it overall. Although that could just be looking at enlarged pics on screen.
