Super excited to join and learn from the community!

Over the past year, I have made the decision to make the move to buy by very first Rolex - I am looking to start with an Explorer I.

I’m still very new to this, so take it easy on a newcomer :)

Cheers,

Ryan

Welcome to the Forum, Ryan.

I am from Mesa.

The Explorer is a fantastic reference -- one of my top favorites. If I could own only one watch, the Explorer would be "it."

Any suggestions on local shops to visit to find a second hand Explorer?
