Icon7 New (old) watch - Explorer 114270

Hello all, this is my latest acquisition: the Rolex Explorer 114270 - 6 digit - 36mm. I like the simplicity of the watch. Not really doing much, zen-like, very purposeful as it fulfills its function of telling the time very well. And I actually quite like the charm of the stamped clasp hehe..



Cheers! From Sunny Singapore :)

Possibly my next Rolex pickup. Sometimes having a small wrist is a good thing.
