Long time lurker...
Hey all -
My name is John and I live with my wife & son in Upstate NY. I am a LONG time lurker who just took the plunge and pledged as well as started posting. I usually can be found checking out the FS section. What a great forum! I look forward to posting here - I am sure there is much to learn. About me - I've wanted a Rolex for years since I was a kid and now own a Tudor Oyster Quartz and one other Rolex. Been eyeing the Explorer I and II for a bit now. :) Happy New Year all! |

Welcome! I am fairly new here as well, and enjoy every minute and everyone on the forum. The Explorer I is also one of my favourites.

Thanks everyone!
Thanks for the warm greeting! I am quickly realizing that once the Rolex bug gets you - it doesn't let go! Doesn't help that I work in the same plaza as an AD.....ugh! Here are some shots of the Tudor - please forgive the quality - I need to take some new ones. These are from when I purchased it. It has had a full service from RSC Beverly Hills when I got it. :)
So - I knew this watch is rare - but could anyone tell me more about it? I was thinking of trading/selling it - would I be better off keeping it? In the market for an Exp 1 or 2 or a Sub. :) Thanks again - John P.S. Located in Southern Tier, NY - Binghamton area.... Last edited by NYTechGuy; 5 January 2010 at 01:40 PM.. Reason: ps |
