I thought I'd try posting a couple pics of my current fav.
Rolex before my new one arrives.....How do they look?
This watch has been on my wrist at least three times a week
for the past ten years....

Tritium dial!!

Very nice! I love those tritium dials.

Mike,

considering you've been wearing that Expl. II regularly for TEN years, it is in a absolutely stunning condition!

Thanks for sharing the pics of that beauty!

Thanks Bo,
I'm pretty careful with my nice watches....some might say a bit too careful...I wear a Citizen Eco-drive dive watch whenever I'm
fishing, diving, hunting, etc.... not too worried about that one.

Good looking watch.

I've been trying to wean myself off a Sub as my daily, and switch over to my EXP II. I think the EXP would take the banging around better than the fairly soft aluminum bezel Subs.

So far I seem to get about the same 3 days per week from my EXP II. I have been trying to get more wrist time for the GMT also...A GMT was my daily in the 70's until I switched to Subs...

Having more than one watch is more complicated than many people can imagine..

Thanks, The Explorer II was my first Rolex...bought back in 1997. I thought 2750.00 was alot to pay back then. I think it will last forever....

Nice pics ! thanks!

Beautiful pics of a very refreshing white dial Rolex!!

CPTL · 21 October 2007, 02:46 AM

That white dial is awesome!! Looks fantastic after 10 years.

There's one on the sales corner. Stock market keeps spazzing out. New Exp-II looking like a safe bet to sink some assets into.

I know, crazy talk. But it's a great watch!

ohsixx · 21 October 2007, 02:49 AM

That baby looks almost new!

f16570 · 21 October 2007, 05:31 AM

If I had a decent digital camera I would post some pictures of my Exp II. I have worn it non stop for the last 2 years and Rudy your watch is in way better condition than mine. Hey Ho.

It's amazing how I've changed my habits to protect my watches....I wear long sleeve shirts to work and take the watch off whenever i have to do something that might
ding it or scratch it. It helps that the Expl. II is so scratch resistant too. Since I'm on a computer about 10-12 hours a day, it's not at risk often..

f16570 · 21 October 2007, 06:58 AM

Scratch Resistant. Mine's is a scratch magnet
