Even Better the Second Time Around!
Well, I'm now officially a member of the 'I sold my watch and missed it so much that I bought it AGAIN' club!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes guys and gals, I made a mistake, but most importantly, I've corrected it! Sold the DJ to 'try' an Expy. It wasn't me. Bought a new DJ. Introducing the one that started it all/ignited my Rolex passion.....the white roman dial....and some 'family' pics. I'm a happy girl. |

That's awesome Karis
You do have the right to change your mind, well done, you gave the ExplorerII a try and that was very daring, nothing ventured nothing gained, so more power to you

Congrats Karis! I've done the same mistake and like you I corrected it the same way. Sometimes we're not aware of how much we love our watches.

The RBR sets off the fluting. The Roman numerals are most attractive. The white dial compliments the WG beautifully. In other words, "Wow."

Beautiful. I also love the Roman numerals. If I were to get a Date-Just, it would have to have them.

HI Karis. Just curious on why you flipped your Exp 2. Your Exp 2 and datejust both have white dial. What was it in the Exp 2 that you did not want?

Thank you Bill!
Ken, I think the Expy is a nice looking watch, but there was just something that wasn't there. Difficult to explain. My fave sports model is still the Sub which I have...I'm a DJ/DD girl at heart. |
