This Model 60 was custom engraved and its side plate inlaid with a bighorn sheep made of ivory and gold. The engraving and inlay was done by Dominqos Joachim in 1981. Although "DJ" only worked at S&W for a few years, he was considered by many to be one of the most talented engravers hired by S&W. I purchased this gun last year and it is the only one I have ever seen that has an ivory and gold inlay.
The nude engraved on the frame in front of the cylinder became DJ's engraver's mark and is found on most, if not all of his works.
