First Post and First Rolex Incoming!
Hi everyone, have lurked a while but have just ordered my first Rolex so thought I would join the gang.
On its way to me is a Rolex Explorer 36mm. Having spent a few months pondering various models and visiting an AD to try a few out for size, I found the new Subs and GMTs etc were just too big for my puny wrists, so I went back to the 36mm Explorer, which I think will be the perfect size. It's a 2009 model, so probably one of the last ones made before the upsize? Anyway, it should be with me before the week is out so I'm quite excited. I'm hoping that this and my Speedy Pro will satisfy my watch needs, at least for a couple of years. |
