First Rolex (Explorer) - Expectations Met :)
Hi all, just picked up my first Rolex a couple weeks back and I am over the moon with it. The quality is outstanding and really is a beautifully put together wristwatch. I expected a longer wait but got the call one month to the day after inquiring which was a pleasant surprise!
It wears so well and the bracelet itself is simply a thing of beauty. So happy to have this piece in my small (but worryingly growing) collection. Hope everyone is well. Looking forward to what Sept 1st brings... |

Brushed Oyster bracelets are so subtle yet distinct. They are absolute perfection, as is the explorer. That is a wonderful 3 price set you have there!
Congrats on the explorer, it is as close to perfection as Rolex gets! |

Congrats! The Explorer was my first Rolex and remains my only Rolex to date. And like you, I'm very happy with it, nearly 4 years later.

Thanks guys. The speedmaster was made for leather. Needed a steel bracelet in the crew and the Explorer fits it perfectly. Would love an exp II but current ones are too big. If they do a new 40mm for the anniversary I’d be very tempted. That or a blue bezel black face sub. That’s a dream though
