Hey Dylan, I'm not the one digging up the old posts!!

Well, without a doubt the Exp-II is the most comfortable watch in the sports line-up. It sits nice and flat and is realtively lighter in weight as compared with the other models.

Would I buy it again? Probably not. After owning watches like Bluesy and my current Platty, it's hard to find a Rolex model of equal match and beauty.....the possible exception being the TT GMT-IIC.....which is unfortunately way beyond my budget.

So I guess I have to be very happy for now with Platty and of course my beloved Sub-date.

Fair enough JJ, those two you own are a pretty solid line-up.

Is DEVIRGINISED a real word?? (But yes, I sympathise nonetheless!)

I am fighting myself....
I want either a white face exp II
or a Pepsi GMT with the 3186 but
cant decide nor do I really need to
buy a new watch now.

I just found 3 Cream dial expyII's with different shades of cream.Oh they are delicious and I think the collector might be willing to sell all 3.

In August 2004, I had in fact picked up a white Exp-II; but when I took it home, discovered (to my horror) that it had a large gash across the black coronet on the dial (when I checked under a 10x loupe).

I was so disgusted that I took it back, but no replacement was possible as the papers had already been signed and stamped.

So the AD sent it off to Rolex HQ, Melbourne for a dial replacement. The watch comes back 10 days later with a dial marked only SWISS. Obviously, someone cocked up in Melbourne.....so back went the watch for a proper dial.

Finally it came back 3 weeks later with the correct SWISS MADE dial. All this run around pissed me off and I finally sold off that DEVIRGINISED watch after a few months.

Now I crave it back, especially after I tried on a brand new, Z-series one this morning.
