Old-fashioned saw (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dated

I believe this clue is a triple definition!

'old' is the first definition.
(dated can mean old or out of date)

'fashioned' is the second definition.
(I have seen 'Old fashioned' mean 'dated' so perhaps 'fashioned' could also mean 'dated')

'saw' is the third definition.
('date' can be a synonym of 'see')

(Other definitions for dated that I've seen before include "Out of fashion" , "Met socially by arrangement" , "old > saw" , "Went out with - old hat" , "Walked out with" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, The Sun, The Independent and The Guardian.
