I have exclusively heard old men say it my entire life (and pretty few and far between), so I just assume it's some reference to something or sourced from something that was "of the time" or whatever. It's kind of an adorably strange way to call someone beautiful. No judgement, I'm genuinely curious. If I've heard it in a movie or something, I can't recall which.

My wife gets mad when I say speak up. Something to do with older men in her field of work.
