Incoming! Explorer 124270

Hi everyone!

After (what seemed like an eternity) 3 months of wait its finally here!
Today i got the call from my AD. The watch I so wanted and desired is finally on my wrist.
Thank you to all that helped in my decision and have tamed my worries.
The watch is all that I expected, beautiful, substantial and feels incredible on my wrist.
Happy Holidays!

Welcome to the club! Mine arrived nearly 4 weeks ago and it hasn't been off the wrist. Not only is it super comfortable but it is running only +4 TOTAL, so +1 second per WEEK. My favorite Rolex I have ever owned...congrats and enjoy in good health!

Did you have a purchase history with this AD or had to put a deposit?
