20th Anniversary present
Wife knew I had been on the hunt for my first NEW Rolex, and was able to arrange one with my local AD (which happened to be the same jeweler from whom I bought a 20th anniversary ring for my wife)

Explorer II 42mm, black dial and I love it - everything about it!

Looking forward to putting it to task - anywhere from fishing, chopping wood, welding/fabricating, woodworking, fire fighting to working on cars with my kiddos.
