I forgot how much I love my Explorer II
My Wife bought me this Explorer II 8 years ago as a engagement present. Since then I have scored quite a few beautiful Rolex's that made me keep the explorer II off my wrist. Everynow and then I would throw it on when my wife asked me if I wear the watch she got me. Lately after wearing a DeapSea and a few other models I decided to dust out my explorer II and throw it on the wrist and realized how much I love wearing this watch. I dont have to worry about fixing the bezel,super lightweight, and its a Rolex.
Anyway.....sorry for the rambling.

You have nothing to apologize for there, when is it due for a service though?
