One Year On
Can't believe it's been a year already since I purchased my first Rolex. From time to time I still find myself just staring at it, still amazed it's mine

It has been a good year, I'm in a better place now than I've ever been in my life and the Explorer just keeps reminding me every time I strap it on my wrist.

Congrats. I felt the same way with my Sub that I wore EVERY day for 6 years. Last year I got a 16710 and the Sub hasn't seen the light of day since although I would never part with it.

Your watch looks great for a year old. Enjoy it for years to come.
