Icon6 Can't Take It Anymore...INCOMING...!!!

The urge of adding another Rolex into the stable has been at its peak and I couldn't help myself but to hunt for another one. It has to be a five-digits model as I have the six-digits model covered. The candidates are the Sub 14060m vs Explorer II 16570.


So...INCOMING...!!!





Oh..the Green box...

Congrats and I'm guessing it's the Explorer II 16570 black dial?

Some wrist shots...





Why the Explorer II? I wanted a low profile daily Rolex that can fit with both formal and casual wear. I have been wearing the Dssd and SubC (thus why not the 14060m) together with the other brands in rotation, while comfort is not an issue at all, at times it's a bit too flashy. This will fit nicely as an under-the-radar sports Rolex. Popular or not, a Rolex is a Rolex.

Thanks to Steve's (toomuchtalk) super awesome thread and all the enablers on this forum that has made my decision much easier.

Cheers.
