Hey guys!

I received my Rolex Explorer today... I'm over the moon. It is my first Rolex.
I have other luxury brands but this is my first crown and I'm very happy.

When I first opened it, I was a bit underwhelmed being honest with you... I thought it was too small for my 8.5" wrists, but its grown on me in a matter of hours! For whatever reason the watch almost looks bigger in the pictures.... than it does in real life... strange.

Anyway... without further ado.... Here is my new watch and some doggers! And I couldn't help get a picture with the Landrover... the watch name and car name are just too perfect!

I tried that... and it does work but they're huge.... they filled up the entire screen haha. I tried even looking up the BB code to resize them but didn't work.

I needed 2! Plus the easy link extension 5mm.

One thing I will say is...

I can't see the Rolex crown laser etching at 6 O'clock no matter how hard I look! Maybe I'll find it one day haha
Edit: Just found it! Wow that's crazy hard to see haha but I found it... below/ontop of the 6 above the baton....

If I had to survive with only one watch I might very well pick the Explorer...it does the job for any occasion. Well done!

I got mines last Tuesday and I agree, initially it was a little underwhelming. Now I can’t seem to take it off. It’s a perfect watch!
