New Incoming Explorer (124273)!

Hi All! Long (way long) time lurker here. I recently began updating my collection and acquired this Rolesor Explorer. I was initially a bit concerned about the size, although I’ve come to the conclusion the 36mm is a nice departure from the many 40mm+ models we have come to love. It is also quite beautiful, especially in-person and in natural light. I’m looking forward to becoming a more active member of this community. Have a great day!

You won’t regret it! I have the 36mm Rolesor version and love it.

It's a great watch. Too small for me, but my girlfriend wears one and tbh the proportions and overall build is much better than the 39mm 214270 that I wear.

Thank you!! I’m pumped - especially after hearing the positive feedback on the new models.

Yes, I think it’s due to my low post count. Will return once I exceed ten posts to add the link.

Fantastic looking, congrats!!!!
I'm on a wait list for the exact same model. How is the Rolesor gold in the flesh? How does it look in the outdoor light?
