My 1st new 6 digit Rolex

Well, I do have an intermediate 6 digit 114270 explorer, but that has the older bracelet & clasp....& different color lume. I am happy with this watch, simple, good weight & size. Rolex has made an old man very happy today.

Congratulations!

Having finally seen one in person yesterday, I can attest that photos do not do this piece justice. So understated and versatile- the dial changes from silver to a warm white to a cooler eggshell white depending on color. Feels superb on wrist- perhaps the ultimate under the radar everyday piece!
