Great Choice, Only the best choose the Explorer!

buz-lh · 5 March 2010, 10:35 PM

Excellent choice. Pure simple beauty. Can't wait to see the pictures.

kyeow · 5 March 2010, 11:58 PM

Congrats on a great choice.

I'm working on a crafty plan to add an EXP 1 to the collection on the basis that it matches my wife's Oyster P, thus justifying the spend/and avoiding a spanking - still got some way to go though

carlhaluss · 6 March 2010, 01:05 AM

Here is a BIG

to you and your new Explorer!
After years of different makes and watches, the Rolex is my favourite, and the Explorer is my favourite Rolex. I can now honestly say, if I could have only one watch, it would be the Rolex Explorer I. This has not only become my daily watch, but I pretty much wear it all the time. The only other watch getting very occasional wrist time is my Milgauss.
I can't imagine ever growing tired of this watch.
Wear it with joy and pride!
Cheers

,
Carl
