Double Incoming

I never planned on buying two in a week but what the heck. The 36 OP is my wife’s first Rolex and I picked up the Explorer 2 days prior. She’s happy and I know it won’t be her last.

The OP is a solid choice...my wife loves hers to death. And it just looks so darn good in so many situations. Congrats to both of you!

I’ve been looking at the Explorer for over a year at the AD’s and this forum. Tried it on eveyrtime and it always felt right. No regrets on this one.

Good choices. Brushed bracelets can take a beating and still look great. Both of these are very versatile watches. The Explorer in particular looks great on leather for more formal occasions.
