So who else here is craving a WHITE Exp-II?

You guys must really think I'm nuts, uh?

In August 2004, I had in fact picked up a white Exp-II; but when I took it home, discovered (to my horror) that it had a large gash across the black coronet on the dial (when I checked under a 10x loupe).

I was so disgusted that I took it back, but no replacement was possible as the papers had already been signed and stamped.

So the AD sent it off to Rolex HQ, Melbourne for a dial replacement. The watch comes back 10 days later with a dial marked only SWISS. Obviously, someone cocked up in Melbourne.....so back went the watch for a proper dial.

Finally it came back 3 weeks later with the correct SWISS MADE dial. All this run around pissed me off and I finally sold off that DEVIRGINISED watch after a few months.

Now I crave it back, especially after I tried on a brand new, Z-series one this morning.
