my first post

Hello all-
I have been monitoring TRF for several months and this is my first post. I thouroughly enjoy reading about your Rolex experiences and appreciate the wealth of information provided about Rolex watches.

Here is my story: I have coveted owning a Rolex for over 10 years. I have had my eye on the Explorer II, black dial, the whole time. The reasons? Simple: I believe the Expy II is a great looking timepiece, versatile and most durable.

I have had opportunities to buy the Expy II on several occasions, but never pulled the trigger. I finally decided to do so and have one on order from an AD. I cant wait to get it in! Pixs to follow. Strange thing is, I am already looking at the next Rolex I am going to buy...

The EXP II is a true workhorse and one of the most versatile in the line..
