New Member - Explorer II "fanatic" ;)
Hi All,
I'm Olli, 24yrs. old and recently bought my first Rolex, 16570, Explorer II from 2010. Before I bought that watch, I wear Nomos and Panerai. I'm not only interested in watches, but I'm also a sport-shooter and collect handmade knives. I like music from Eric Bibb, Eric Clapton, LeAnn Rimes, Toby Lightman, Mindi Abair, John Mayer, Missy Higgins - mostly enjoy it on weekends with a nice Cigar and a glass of Whisky. I registered here to read and learn more about Rolex, especially vintage Explorer II Modells like the 1655. I already got my hands on the japaneese Begin Book: Explorer II and was guided to a italian Blog with an awesome 1655 review. Here's a Pic of my EDC stuff. Greetings, Olli |
