I finally pulled the trigger
After over a year debating whether or not to buy it, reading about it & looking at it...I finally bit the bullet & purchased it. I knew it was THE watch for me since I first saw it, and while it seems like forever for me to decide I was going to buy it and find the right AD to deal with....it was all worth it. I've been blessed far beyond what I deserve.

Congratulations! Great choice. I also picked the same watch except for me it was a lot more impulsive.

Thank you for all the great comments. It truly is an amazing watch.
I remember when my father purchased his 1st Rolex & how special it was to him & I wanted to make sure my Rolex purchase was just as special. Here it is on my wrist. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

You have chosen well. The Explorer 2 is a damn good choice for a first watch because frankly it gives you everything you need.
You have a very accurate mechanism You have the white dial which is dead easy on the eye and easy to read. You have the seconds, minutes, hours and a date and also a easy to set and read GMT function. The new bracelet is way ahead of everything else Above all, you have a fantastic watch that is under the radar and does not scream Rolex. A true gentleman's watch Regards Mick |
