Explorer II looks

Ok, because I'm so seriously considering actually pulling the trigger on a white dial Exp II, could people who own them please post pictures of it on different straps or looking dashing?

I feel like such a junkie writing this but it IS a beautiful watch! I tried one on in an AD in Rome the other day and was in love!

OOOOH I almost forgot to mention this, in Florence, I stayed at the Hotel Orologio! Pictures to come soon!

Well this is a black dial, but it was my first Rolex and I really miss it. At least it's in good hands with another GREAT TRFer. Enjoy some beautiful pics!!

Thanks everyone for all the great pictures! Does anybody have a picture of one on a NATO? I'm very curios about how that looks.

I really feel like pulling the trigger, but after buying a 16610 so recently for my friend, I feel like it would be irresponsible to buy something to expensive so quickly. Maybe in a few months?

Haha who am I kidding, I almost bought one six days ago and was only stopped by the fact that it was in Europe, and I could've found a better deal in the US.

Although I WAS offered a 27% discount... (TWENTY SEVEN PERCENT!)
