2023 New Releases - I Think I Cracked It

[Ravager135]

OP is like the Mel Kiper of Rolex; only far more accurate. Precision poster.

Dang. I wonder if they'll have a two-tone Explorer 2. If they can do it to the Sea-Dweller...

It happened to me during 4 separate sessions, each after visiting multiple URLs in a single session. If you are seeing this on a first visit, there could also be proxies in place for a multitude of other things, such as IP addresses or ranges, network IPs or ranges, total site traffic at a given time, etc.

Going to give it another shot this coming weekend and test some other 'outside-the-box' methods. Once I have some more meaningful info, I will create a new thread and include a link back to this one.

I'm intrigued by all of this just as I was last year. If I had to guess regarding the Explorer, I'd guess TT, but the titanium suggestion is an interesting one. No guess on the Explorer II.

I’d love a white dial Explorer 40. Thank you for doing this for the community, PartyRoss!

I’m hoping for a full YG Explorer 36 with a 20mm bracelet.

That could be amazing! I've been dreaming of an Explorer with a white dial for quite a while. Meteorite would also be acceptable.

PartyRoss, you are THE DUDE! Thanks for posting.

[d.n.d.]

best thread ever, this needs to be an annual tradition lol

[Ravager135]

I don't know what OPs day job is, but his committment level here is second to none. This and the polar explorer thread are easily the two best in the history of TRF.
