Happy Canada Day/Independence Day TRF!!

Hope you have a safe and restful long weekend.

Being born and raised in Toronto, Canada and now a residing in the United States. I consider myself lucky to be part of these 2 great nations. So I thought I would celebrate them in true TRF style.

Thanks for the wishes and positive comments.

I love the versatility of the 39mm Explorer (214270). Looks great on a nato, alligator, rubber and of course the oyster bracelet. It can be formal, classy, or rugged.

The Explorer is tied with the SS Daytona as my favorite modern Rolex and definitely gets tons of wrist time.

FYI these NATO straps were purchased at cheapestnatostraps.com. As a review, the quality is impressive, not as well made as the Maratac ones, but you can not beat the price. If you buy in bulk (5 or more) you receieve a 10% discount and another 10% if you like them on facebook. Shipped from Sweden, it was a little over $30 for 5 NATO straps, which I thought was a great deal. Great way to add variety to your NATO strap collection without a substantial dent in your future Rolex piggy bank.
