Great shots everyone. I look at my Explorer, think it's perfect, then look at this thread and think I made a mistake!

A few months back I was considering strongly the EXP 1 in its larger version. I decided I really wanted the 114060 in spite of owning the 14060. I think I made the right decision.

Never think that. When one purchases a Rolex, the realms for that purchase is perfect to that individual. A sure fire way to solve your issue is to pick up a 114060.

Wise words Eric. I was mostly kidding about making a mistake, I love my Explorer and can't imagine I'd ever trade/sell it as it was the watch I bought to commemorate my wedding, and also my first Rolex.

That being said, I hope to add a 114060 someday

Crap. This thread just cost me $8.500. Thanks guys. Will receive it ultimo September, due to not on stock p.t. It will be a nice ("blingy") addition to my e.g. 14060M.

You could do better with one of our trusted sellers and still BNIB, I did.

Remember that i reside in Norway and prices here are not US prices. And, if I bought abroad - I have to pay 25% tax on the whole amount. On the positive side, the regulations here are almost bulletproof regarding buyers protection for 5 years at no "additional cost"…

Norway is expensive, but we have a lot of basic society stuff for free. I am OK to pay more for luxury goods as long as school, hospitals and medical care, etc for all are free. :)

So, if a BNIB cost USD6700 (including shipment, fees) abroad - I still would´t have the 5 year hazel free "guarantee".
