Hello...

Just wanna say that you have a great site!

I've been a rolex owner for awhile now. I am currently looking to upgrade my explorer ll but not sure to what. Few things entered my mind and one of them is SS Daytona (ofcourse, who wouldn't :) and thats how I came across to this forum, looking for inspirations.

Thanks for the great community of Rolex Enthusiasts. Looking forward to contribute to the forum.

Here's my current collection of watches

Welcome to TRF, Vince!

Super collection you have there! Thanks for sharing!

I hope you get your Daytona soon!

I don't know if you have yet learned to post pics, so just ignore this "tutorial" of mine, if you do know how to post pics:

1) Go to www.photobucket.com and create an account (it's FREE!)
2) Upload the pic to photobucket from your PC
3) When it's uploaded, copy the IMG code (BOTTOM bar under the photo in photobucket - there are four bars, but you'd wanna use the third and last bar). You copy the IMG code by simply clicking on the bar.
4) You then note that photobucket tells you "copied".
5) Then go to rolexforums and start your post.
6) In your post, press the "Add picture" button and a prompt pops up with http://. Delete that http:// and press CTRL + V (now that address of the photo - the "IMG tag" - is inserted in the prompt you got.
7) Then DELETE the last and first [IMG] to get rid of "IMG" standing before and after your photo when you post it. (not important, but just looks better).

Or you can skip # 6 & 7 and just rightclick in your post and choose "paste"...........BINGO your photo will be there as soon as you press Submit reply.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT DELETE THE PICTURE FROM PHOTOBUCKET (OR ANY SERVER YOU USE) SINCE DELETING IT THERE WOULD ALSO DELETE IT HERE ON TRF! (RED CROSS INSTEAD OF PIC).

That's it!

This is definately a good forum. Welcome.

lightningrider · 28 August 2007, 08:42 AM

Thanks for the compliments. Nevertheless, I think that my collection will never complete without a Black Face SS Daytona

I am thinking of selling my Explorer II but the problem I have is I lost the boxes and papers. How much do you think I can get for it?
