Was expecting this tomorrow, what a great surprise.

My SubC Date is my first from a few years ago marking a promotion at work, which I'll never sell.

My second Rolex was the Explorer I Mk.2. I kept reading about it when it came out and everyone on here was going bananas over it. I loved the lume and updated hands, and bought one to celebrate a new job. I loved the watch, but hated the job. I put it away in storage for 2 years, wearing it seldomly, because it always reminded me about the job I hated, even though I had already quit. I also realized that I kept looking at the date, and my wrist is puny, so something smaller was due.

I sold the Explorer and thought the next closest thing I could do is a DJ, and of course in blue

Take care everybody!

I love the curved steel bezel, I think I actually may like it more than a fluted.
