My first ever Rolex!

After buying my better half two beautiful DateJust watches I decided it was time to add one to my collection of watches. It has a great feel on the wrist and has a classic look! I decided on a M serial because I did want a newer model that was a little different from most of the 16570's made! Thanks to Tony G aka: JustRolexes I got a like new watch!
Thanks also to TRF for the education I have gotten over the last year! Since I became a member I have added a PP Naitilus 5712 G and this Explorer II! I can not wait to see what a year from now and further enabling will bring!

It came with all boxes, tags, warranty cards and books. Please excuse the lousy iPhone pics!
