New arrival
Just in the door is my new Rolex Explorer II 42mm thought long and hard about it but when i tried one on it was an easy choice in the end, had the choice of Black dial or White but i have two black dial watches and the white Explorer always appealed to me so the white one it was and i'm happy.

For some reason your shots really make me like this one a lot more. I think that some of the MACRO shots people take around here make us think it is too "oversized" or "bloated" etc. I need to see one in person... |

Looks MUCH better in person. At least the black one does as that is the only one I have seen in person. I'm guessing the white one looks even better. Congratulations.

Norman. Great catch and good to see you over here from TZ UK.
Glad to see my funds from the IWC went to VERY good use. That white face is lovely.....there is one in the window of Mappin and Webb Manchester and I have been avoiding oing in all week as I know if I get it on my wrist there will be a hole in my bank account ! |
