That's a really nice Dunhill!
I would never buy a new Dunhill White Spot. I've learned my lesson, the really have lost the passion for making nice pipes, basically just paying for the name.

Wow, two birth year Dunhills! Awesome!
Ha! That '81 would be college graduation. The '83 would be the first anniversary of wedded bliss.
"Wedded Bliss" :lol:
I'm definitely using this one!
If you say it just right, it can be heard as "bliss" or "blitz." Depending on the context, one or the other might be more appropriate.

Lol... I can't wait to test it out tonight. I'm already in the doghouse for taking the last yogurt this morning.

I had three birthyears in my rack once upon a time. It's a nifty little justifier to buy Dunhill.

1980 would be the end of the Bill Taylor/Les Wood era. Good pipes, they'll never depreciate.
