Got my explorer I sort of

If anyone has been keeping up with my posts. My future wife is purchasing me a used explorer I and I had some questions on it. Well last monday I got to goto the jewelry store with her and made the purchase. However, I don't get the watch till the rehearsal dinner. The watch was great and it doesn't look like it was ever worn it still had the tags and the hologram on it as well as some of the paperwork. She had to fill out some stuff with the jeweler for registration or something. Anyway i'm excited since it's my first rolex. I get it Nov 2. Thanks for all the responses in helping me choose this watch

Well, there's no backing out now.

Congratulations again on your upcoming wedding. Post pictures of the watch when you have a chance--obviously, you're going to be a very busy guy for a while.

Congratulations on a fine watch.

The Explorer has one of the richest histories of the Rolex products and is well known around the world.

And what better occassion than bringing it into a marriage....

The watch, of course, will last a lifetime...

Whatever you do, don't wear it to bed on that,"special night!!". You could be distracted!!!

Congrats!

As you would know, you can buy a box for it later. Most important thing is you got that beauty of a Rolex!

Congrats mate. I get to wear my Exp II on Dec 1st, which is my wedding date.

However, an Exp I just joined the family today, which my dad is getting, so it's all good!!
