Side effects may include lack of replies to say congrats.
Classic, I much prefer an incoming that includes an actual watch

Well done !

Well here she is! A 2013 rolex exolorer 216570 polar :). Fitting great after some minor adjustment and looking great after a soapy wash. Sorry for the delay, hopefully a few pics make up for it :).

Well...I was going to change my guess to milguass z-blue, but it looks like I will stick with my original answer!

Congrats, Josh!

Nice watch Enjoy !! The Rolex that polarizes opinion like no other. I was surprised when Rolex went with the super cased Explore ll's in 42 mm. On release the general opinion seemed to be it was too big and square looking, not as sporty as the previous 40mm model. I hear some of those 3186 movements are problematic as well. My AD tells me this 42mm model is a slow mover, so I'm hoping for a down sized, back to 40mm Explorer ll come next spring at Basel.

Thanks ! They are a slow mover from what I hear but they are a steal on the preowned market. Picked this one up for around 5100usd with a blank card from a nice forum member.
