first Rolex - Explorer I 114270
first rolex incoming
after 5 years in this hobby , finally pulled the trigger on a piece I have lusted after for a long time. I am in the process of consolidating the collection and picked up a Explorer I. Next I will sell my MKII Nassau and get the real thing with a 14060M. Eventually want to add a Polar Explorer II and Datejust. I started in this hobby with watches from China on Ebay then moved up to citizens and Seiko, then German watches like Damasko and Sinn, Stowa, then Omega and Grand Seiko. NOw the plan is to collect more slowly and just go for Rolex for awhile. |

Explorer II came and wore it since I got it last week.
Just got the No Date Submariner today ! these 3 should keep me satisfied for awhile... although next is a Datejust 36mm with white dial. |
