What a great incoming! Polar Expl II is a beautiful one. A huge congrats! I see the "addiction" runs in the family too? Lol. Your Dad's SD43 is looking great!

Haha! oh, the anxiety!

My dad did this too. When he first got his explorer 1, I went over there and saw not only was the crown unscrewed, the glass was covered in barbecue sauce. He didn’t even notice.

I wouldn't know. I'm quite far from the capital, when I visit I will probably wear something else though, as I've heard the same as you.

Would be ok most parts of London to wear Rolex, other parts pull your sleeve down!
Beware of AD,s desperate for stock.

That SD43 is probably still a 100m watch even with the crown out

Cool pic. Congrats on the explorer. The new design is very nice with subtle tweaks that fixed some little annoyances on the 11s (the black dial ones that is).

Congrats!

As a Minnesota native I’m delighted to see that there’s a Vikes fan living in the Northern UK.
