Opinions on F series??

Only White Exp II I can find here in BKK, is a F Series. What are your thought on buying a new F Series Rolex? (no additional discount)

I know from the FAQ thread, that F series were produced from September 2003 to April 2005. So the watch then is 2-4 years old. Of course the warranty starts once you purchase the watch.

Thoughts?

Is the white dial what you want? If the price is right, I'd say go for it.

Serial # series aside, how does the Exp II feel on your wrist? I don't think the Exp II has changed much from 2003 - present.

The EXP IIs, I think are the best fitting and looking on my wrist. The appear, due to the sloped fixed SS bezel to be smaller. I do like the fit of the GMT II and EXP II better. I like the smaller clasp on the bracelet and the case is thinner.

Call me crazy, but I am considering selling both my Subs. The LV and the No Date. And buying an EXP II White face and then either another GMT II or Exp II. I really am starting to like the SS Datejust as well!

If you like the full SS DJ, have a look at the new 116200 with Rhodium dial, solid WG Romans and new Jubilee bracelet - absolute beauty!!
