I'm still trying to get the watch adjusted to my comfort as this is just my first day wearing, but hopefully I can make micro-adjustments to get a better feel. A couple other notes is the ceramic bezel. I never realized the "luster/shine" that it has when the lights hit it, I can't say i hate it, but neither can i say i love it. But it is not as "low key" as i had thought. I was hoping this would suit as a daily watch, but possibly the explorer II will suit better due to the lower profile. Another note is the glidelock clasp! It is awesome! I wish all the rolexes had this micro fine adjustment. The cyclops, i have mixed feelings about. I'm thinking it would look more simple and subtle with out the cyclops so maybe a watch mod is in store for the near future. Anyhow, a couple of pics today with the cell phone, sorry for the crappy quality. Thanks again to the forums for the information I have found on the site! Paul


CONGRATS, ENJOY & WELCOME TO THE FORUMS!!!

The acrylics, the transits, the reds, the special orders, the Greens...madness I am telling you.
Had to have them and look at them... arrange them, wind them etc.
The only one I did not have/owned was the SD Italian "Sommozzatori"
Pictured below

...I am not sick anymore...so this one for ever - escaped...

Too sick! I cannot imagine.
