Meet a Rolex Forums Member #3 (Mid-March 2018) - GerardoG
Very good article Eliot.
And G, we have at least one thing in common - I, too, have bought 2 Explorer II’s that I no longer own. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Great interview! Aside from all of Gerardo’s wonderful attributes, what strikes me most is he is an open book. Along with the many travels, dinners, cigars, drinks and wrist shots, G has shared with us some of his most personal triumphs and tragedies and his message is sincere and comes from his heart.
I am thankful to share some moments with this person I call friend!

Etschell.. Awesome interview and series: Congratulations on another home run.
Gerardo: Such wonderful stories about your attraction and commitment to the Rolex brand. You are unique. It was great to meet you at last fall's ATL GTG along with some of your TRF pals. We have one thing in common: 1970's DayDate (albeit mine is inherited). My favorite photo from your interview is "little fingers" - so much pride and love in that photo. Blessings, DM
