Got my first Rolex this weekend! (114270)
Hey guys! Long time lurker finally coming out of the shadows as I now have my first Rolex! After years of wearing Hamilton, TAG, Omega, etc. I finally took the plunge and got my first Rolex -- something I've wanted since I was a little boy and first saw my grandfather's GMT Master. Now, at 26, I finally have my own!
Anyway, I got this beautiful Explorer 1, ref. 114270, from Jared aka ponycar350. By the way, he is a great guy. Got back to my messages quickly even though I'm a newbie to the forum. I sent payment on Wednesday night and my watch was delivered before noon on Friday -- talk about great service! I highly recommend him if you want a nice pre-owned piece. I'm loving it, and I think the 36mm size fits my smallish wrist perfectly. (Sorry guys, I couldn't figure out how to flip the image to be right side up.)

Nice! I was considering one of those - love their clean and classy look and the way the crystal shines from the side.
