New Member Hello

I wanted to introduce myself to TRF as is custom for new members. I was drawn to this site due to my desire to purchase a Rolex for the first time (yes a rolex noobie). I love how active everyone is and love the enthusiasm for such wonderful watches. Also love everyone's ability to spot fakes and call people out for it on other sites.

I have been contemplating a rolex purchase for some time and have narrowed it down to two possibilities:

White explorer II (older model as the new one at 42 mm is too large for me) or the black gv milgauss. I love them both.

Well cheers to everyone

So what would you guys do explorer ii or milgauss. I wear a suit a lot for work but want a watch to wear with jeans and other casual clothes. In an ideal world I would get both now but that is not likely. Thanks

Matt
