These two date pin points underline and exclamation dot between August 1961- and march 1962

Strontium 90 provoked the debate about the radium lume . Especially strontium is dangerous because it is easly absorbed by the human skin. . In August 1961 a US Navy officer sued Rolex because of illness caused by strontium 90. See NY times article from 1...

That’s why I’m in to modern Rolex :-))))) [nt]

Excellent, Con Nast. Just one question: Why using both underline and exclamation dots? Only one of these 2 would have been enough. Do you have an explanation about that? [nt]

Yeah, just because they got radiation poisoning and increased risk of cancer from a watch
