My Dad had both knees done in 1980 when he was nearly 68. He had been an outstanding HS athlete, and was still in very good shape for his age, other than his knees. He'd gotten to the point where walking a hundred feet or so was a problem. He had the left one done in May, the right one in August. By mid-October, he was climbing on top of the grain bins, and playing touch football with his grandsons.

I think the key to his success was being in pretty good health, and doing ALL of his physical therapy exercises to the letter! He said he never had anything else that he had to hurt so much to make it improve. My Mother had both knees replaced, did not do her exercises, and never walked any better than before they were replaced.
